Did anyone read A Wind in the Door, the second book in the A Wrinkle in Time series? It states that even the most insignificant organism can affect the whole cosmos in a crazy chain reaction. It the story, the child (who is supposedly the savior) has a disease in which his mitochandria is destroyed this making the child extremely weak. If he died, the world would die, if the world died, the solar system, if the solar system, the galaxy etc. Now, think, if we nuke the hell out of the world, and destroy, we might throw the solar system out of whack. All the planets are an exact amount from each other (except for Pluto). It is pretty crazy how it all works.
The fact that space might be finite is to great an idea to full comprehend. What is beyond that? UGGHGHGG....MY BRAIN. And the idea that the universe is infinite just seems more logical. UGH. I have so many ideas that I just cannot put into words.
There are three theories.
The universe expands, reaches a point, retracts. The process starts over.
The universe expands, runs out of matter, dissipates.
The universe expands, reaches a point, and stays as is.
