Space is big..really big
Triangulation has shown that Space can be measured as 'infinite' using stars as a guide and triangulating such points in determining how much space are between us and it. From this if the distance is greater than 180' *linear sight* we can determine how much space is outside. Turns out space is not only infinite but the observable universe is speeding up and getting ever faster.

There can never be a 'big crunch' as there is infinite space, but also the question of what's beyond this space. More space? nothing at all..even nothing is nothing? Even better is to run across your living room. Congratulations, that space you have just ran has gotten increasingly bigger (although not observably so) in all directions.

Space is indeed very big.

RE: Space is big..really big
Not forgetting Multiverses where a signature 'collision' of such a event could be registered on the cosmic background radiation some day, aswell as our observable universe already having being found to have past 'stages' so this isn't the first of our Universe to happen, but there may have been infinite more before and after. With other infinite Multiverses infinitely doing the same thing.

I mean take the Star Ship enterprise, crank it up to warp speed outside our galaxy, now times that speed by 10 until the galaxies of the universe begin to show movement, now crank it up further to times 1000 speed where the universe itself begins to move and show signs of its 'webbing', crank it up even further to the edge of the observable universe times 400 speed and you still haven't touched 0% of what's out there. Because in infinite, units of speed/distance are non-existent. Which means that perhaps our perception of maths in understanding physics is also so.

Moving through eternity can take a really long time.

Especially towards the end.

The universe expands at the speed of light and if nothing is faster than that, there is no beyond the universe. Everything except the density remains the same and has reactions with the others that always equal zero.

RE: Space is big..really big
If everything is expanding (which we observe and we consider the universe homogenous) and due to Hubble's law there is a finite boundary similar to an event horizon upon which all other galaxies recede away faster than the speed of light (relatively to us), therefore even though they exist in space, we will never see them.

Space itself is thought to be able to move faster than light, but nothing in space can.

RE: Space is big..really big
I do not believe in the big bang or an expanding universe. Where's the proof? Somebody give something other than red-shift of distant galaxies because, to me, there could be another reason for that. I think it could be possible for light to loose energy when travelling vast distances, hence the shift to lower frequencies.

RE: Space is big..really big
space is an illusion programmed into us. You could program a "being" with a computer. It would behave just like a "being" we think of. It could be programmed to believe it is "seeing" things. Hitting into walls, etc.

How do you know a being is "concious"? you don't. you only know what beings "do" and tell you (i.e. living). But I digress.

Space is just an infinite loop in the programming. But outside of that loop, in reality, things are not necessarily infinite.

What happens when you put that "being" into a robot in the room with you and it can look at the computer it was once in?

I know. the truth is shockingly simple and the natural tendency when you realize it is to fight it, mock, and reject it. It's ok. I understand.

RE: Space is big..really big
space is only infinite during your lifetime. After you are dead, it will no longer be infinite in the sense that you won't be able to prove it still is. So it is a trick. An amazing illusion.

you can say that is not true. Someone else dies (you see them die) and space is still infinite. But that too is an illusion.

No, infinity is technically real, but a human invention it is. Like all Math. And Time.
