Hi KiGs;

Congratulations, I see after one day at the forum you made it into the "BLUE MAN GROUP".

I not sure this will help but here is a diagram from big bang to present. What is even more remarkable is the spatial inflation which has the universe diameter at 156 Billion light years wide even though our universe is less then 15 Billion years old. Some trick huh. See:

Hi again:

Actually I view the universe expanding in all directions similar to this:



Best,

Thanks Profpat that helps.. but it also raises more questions. In order for it to expand so much means that at times it was expanding faster than the speed of light correct?

So couldn't we look far enough away in this visible universe to where there is nothing?

Since it was faster than light it could expand fast, but our view of it would disappear at 15 billion light years despite it being much larger.

After writing that I'm getting the idea that it doesn't really matter, our perception is very limited and I understand that. I guess the only thing left is what the border of 15billion light years and 15billion +1 light years looks like. Eh I guess it's the same as what neutralino said before.. and forever it will go in my head if I don't except it.

Thanks for the responses I think I'm happy with the idea now. I can let it rest.
