But “infinity” means that, beyond the observable universe, you won’t just find more planets and stars and other forms of material…you will eventually find every possible thing.
What is beyond the known universe?
Beyond our observable Universe lies the unobservable Universe, which ought to look just like the part we can see. The way we know that is through observations of the cosmic microwave background and the large-scale structure of the Universe.
What happens at the edge of the universe?
The edge of the observable universe cannot keep up with the expansion of the universe so that many galaxies are eternally beyond our observation. Despite this limitation on observational abilities, the universe itself still has no edge.
Where does space end?
No, they don’t believe there’s an end to space. However, we can only see a certain volume of all that’s out there. Since the universe is 13.8 billion years old, light from a galaxy more than 13.8 billion light-years away hasn’t had time to reach us yet, so we have no way of knowing such a galaxy exists.
Can you see the other side of a black hole?
“An observer far away will not see their astronaut friend fall into the black hole. They’ll just get redder and fainter as they approach the event horizon [as a result of gravitational red shift].
What is on the other side of the universe?
In principle everywhere in the universe at the same universal age of ours (13.8 billion years after the big bang), there is pretty much the same as in our vicinity: stars, galaxies, clusters of galaxies and lots of empty space in between. That is what we see “on the other side of our observable universe”.
Who created the universe?
The earliest cosmological models of the universe were developed by ancient Greek and Indian philosophers and were geocentric, placing Earth at the center. Over the centuries, more precise astronomical observations led Nicolaus Copernicus to develop the heliocentric model with the Sun at the center of the Solar System.
Are there other universes?
Our universe is but one in an unimaginably massive ocean of universes called the multiverse. If that concept isn’t enough to get your head around, physics describes different kinds of multiverse. The easiest one to comprehend is called the cosmological multiverse.
Why is space black?
The daytime sky is blue because light from the nearby Sun hits molecules in the Earth’s atmosphere and scatters off in all directions. At night, when that part of Earth is facing away from the Sun, space looks black because there is no nearby bright source of light, like the Sun, to be scattered.
Do wormholes exist?
Wormholes are consistent with the general theory of relativity by Einstein, but whether wormholes actually exist remains to be seen. A wormhole could connect extremely long distances such as a billion light years or more, short distances such as a few meters, different universes, or different points in time.
Can we see Edge of Universe?
The edge of the Universe, as it appears to us, is unique to our perspective; we can see back 13.8 billion years in time in all directions, a situation that depends on the spacetime location of the observer who’s looking at it.
Is nothingness possible?
There is no such thing as nothingness, and zero does not exist. Everything is something.
What is outside the super universe?
Outside the bounds of our universe may lie a “super” universe. Space outside space that extends infinitely into what our little bubble of a universe may expand into forever. Lying hundreds of billions of light years from us could be other island universes much like our own.
What is beyond the end of the universe?
But “infinity” means that, beyond the observable universe, you won’t just find more planets and stars and other forms of material…you will eventually find every possible thing.
What year will the universe end?
22 billions years in the future is the earliest possible end of the Universe in the Big Rip scenario, assuming a model of dark energy with w = −1.5. False vacuum decay may occur in 20 to 30 billion years if Higgs boson field is metastable.
How long will universe last?
Vacuum decay might already have begun in some distant place. We won’t see it coming. Not to worry, though. As Mack counsels, whatever it looks like, the end probably won’t be nigh for at least 200 billion years.
Where does space end and heaven begin?
The Kármán line, an altitude of 100 km (62 mi) above sea level, is conventionally used as the start of outer space in space treaties and for aerospace records keeping.
What happens when you reach the end of space?
The expansion slows, the Universe reaches a maximum size, and recollapses, ending in a Big Crunch. Expansion forever. The expansion rate drops but never reaches zero; the Universe expands forever and ends in a Big Freeze.
What is one the other side of a black hole?
The event horizon is a proposed boundary around a black hole. On the other side of it, the gravitational pull of the black hole is so strong that, in order to escape it, an object would have to be moving faster than the speed of light, a feat that almost all physicists agree is impossible.
What was before the universe?
The initial singularity is a singularity predicted by some models of the Big Bang theory to have existed before the Big Bang and thought to have contained all the energy and spacetime of the Universe.
Does the universe have an end?
The end result is unknown; a simple estimation would have all the matter and space-time in the universe collapse into a dimensionless singularity back into how the universe started with the Big Bang, but at these scales unknown quantum effects need to be considered (see Quantum gravity).
Who has created God?
Defenders of religion have countered that the question is improper: We ask, “If all things have a creator, then who created God?” Actually, only created things have a creator, so it’s improper to lump God with his creation. God has revealed himself to us in the Bible as having always existed.
