Does Space End?

[Sensi Super Skunk]

My theory, like that of many scientist, is that the space is always expanding, expanding at a rate that too fast to actually caculate. But...to me...it is very hard to think that something like space has no end...very. I ponder about this so much...man it's just so confusing. Something like the fact there is no gravity out there, and that there is no up or down or any sense of direction, is something that I can imagine. But space being endless, without any boundries? Subjects like astronomy, the Big Bang Theory, and space really interest me. New question: Does anyone think that their could possibly be other dimensions?

[Sensi Super Skunk]

Is there any evidence that the Big Bang was the only Bang? Maybe there were others but they are so far away that their light hasn't reached us yet.

I think that the Big Bang Theory is based on the very first one, the very beginning of the universe. The one that made it possible for everything to exist, from the numerous stars to the various gases and elements.

I think all the things mentioned are possible, plus many we haven't thought of or can comprehend. We've only been down from the trees for about 100,000 years, and have barely managed to survive without killing ourselves through sheer stupidity. To believe we have the answers to some of these questions is award winning arrogance.

That we dare to speculate at least shows there's some hope.

i realized this at a very very young age in fourth grade when my teacher said the order goes city, country, continent, planet, solar system, galaxy, universe, thats it...whats after universe? it cant just STOP...there CANT be an end to existance it is impossible to comprehend if you think about it. it also makes you feel very insignificant tot hink your 5-6 feet tall in a univers with incalcuable size. and if there is an end to the universe...how is that possible..i mean do you just come to a stop and eveything ends, like...something has to be in something else, that si where infinity comes from, therefore the universe is never ending

I read The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy and it brought up a very good theory/point. Space is never ending but with the human mind is placed restrictions. We always think of HOW big or small something is. So therefore space really has no size, it is just the human mind placing restrictions on something.(anyone get what I'm saying)
