Space is big; like, really big
I mean, you might think it’s a long way to that big out of town supermarket where that old lady once hit on you thinking you were a soldier from the war, but that’s just peanuts to space.
Even if you lined up all the bitcoin in the world end-to-end, that’s just crossing the street where space is concerned.
You may think you can fit a lot of dogs in your car, but in space you can fit so many dogs, they haven’t been able to come up with a number big enough. Of course it would depend on the breed as well as their different sizes, so technically it would be a range rather than one number specifically, which complicates matters further.
You know how when you move house and you always seem to have about ten times the amount of stuff you think you do, well imagine if you were to move universes and everything in the whole universe had to be put in a big truck and carted to somewhere else. Now your collection of ornamental dolphin figurines doesn’t look so bad does it?

1 返信Yeah, I read a book about answering werid questions with physics and science, and the one for a question like this was like you could listen to everybody's life with 150 commentary tracks 100 time. Or for boring people 4.8×10^17 years driving there

DarthWolfricにより編集済み: 10/25/2024 3:50:26 AMSpatial scale has interested me for a long time. Defining the boundaries of the universe is something based potentially in an object’s mass dent in space time (gravity…) creating impossible-to-observe however existent “shapes” defining the universe, like the [url=https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/N-sphere]n-sphere[/url] or a torus—where going around the whole horizontal ring would take longer than the “shortcut” of the vertical ring which would support the fact of things being in the past/lightspeed. That is, however, finite, and beyond that is the interesting idea of nothing: not infinity, because infinity can’t exist. Simply nothing. No space time, no matter in the weft of reality. Then comes the infinite universe—the possibility of alien life or clones of celestial objects (e.g copy of our Solar System) stretching infinitely, the chances of such a thing occurring being almost impossible but not implausible. It reminds me of the [url=https://libraryofbabel.info/]Library of Babel[/url], where every possible combination of colour exists that what you’re seeing is hypothetically stored there.
