Have you ever just thought about space. It doesn't begin or end anywhere. It's endless! My mind can not comprehend this...

Not for meh.
DID SOMEONE SAY SPACE
*clears throat*
Okay. Time to nerd out.
Here's some food for thought: space does not begin or end anywhere, right? It's infinite. The point of infinity is to be endless. But what if I told you that some infinities are longer than others?
There is an endless amount of whole, positive numbers. There is also an endless amount of whole numbers, both positive and negative. But we can agree that there are more whole numbers than just positive whole numbers, right? Both amounts, though, are endless.
It's difficult to comprehend. Infinity in math is intriguing. Infinity divided by 6 is infinity, infinity divided by 1,000,000 is infinity...
But anyway, spacey things. Right. Leeeetttt's stop doing math and drop some cool space facts because you boring people don't like math

- Did you know that at the center of a black hole is said to be something called a singularity? A singularity is literally a single point. It's impossible to get any smaller.
- Also, black holes are so dense and have so much gravity that even light, the fastest-traveling thing in the universe, cannot escape their pull. This is why they appear black: darkness in the sky is a lack of light.
- The iron in your frying pan once made a star explode! See, stars, when they run out of fuel, collapse in on themselves because of their own gravity, exploding in a fantastic event known as a supernova. Why do they run out of fuel? Well, stars fuse atoms of hydrogen to create energy, and those newly-fused atoms continue fusing into heavier and heavier elements. Eventually, the element of iron forms in the star's core, which absorbs any energy created by fusing. This is when the star doesn't have enough energy to resist its own gravity, and boom! Supernova! (I totally blew your mind with that one. Ha. Ha. Ha... ok I'll stop)
- Gravity is by far the weakest of the four forces in the universe. If the weak force, a very small and weak force as implied by its name, were the size of a bone, gravity would be the size of a small fly. Gravity is smol
- It takes nearly 3 years for the light from the nearest star to Earth (other than the sun) to reach our eyes. Light travels roughly 6 trillion (6,000,000,000,000) miles (or 10 trillion km) in a year. Think about that for a second. And it would take the light from the edge of the universe 46.6 billion years!
Ayyy I want to nerd out too!
1. Let's talk about infinity.
Firstly, infinity is not a number but a sign, so it can't be compared to the numbers.
Secondly, infinity doesn't exist. Why? Let's take a simple question: What's a sum of all Integer numbers? Obviously, it's 0. Because each natural number has it's negative (inverse) number and their sum will be equal zero. But, if we'll add all positive numbers first, then all negative numbers, we'll get positive and negative infinity (since the amount of natural numbers is infinite). And the sum of those infinities will be an infinity, however. Why? If we'll deduct the amount of all natural numbers from the sum of all natural numbers we'll get infinity (actually, the max natural number deducted from the sum of all natural numbers). So, infinity minus infinity equals infinity. But we're totally sure that the sum of all integer numbers is 0 (see proof above). This leads to a contradiction, which proves that infinity doesn't exist.
2. Space. What it is, actually? If we talk about stars, planets, galaxies, etc, then we call it space. If we talk about certain area, we also call it space (e.g. space between two things). First space is surrounded by our Universe's border, which grows faster than (or the same as) the speed of light. So nothing can actually get outside of the Universe. Second space is where our Universe is located. It's actually made of nothing, and the Universe is the space where time exists. Well, agree that nothing can be in a place where time doesn't exist; how it would be there then?
3. How the Universe actually started? Big Bang theory! Yes, the one which states that Universe existed as a substance with max density and temperature (aka singularity). Then it started to grow (and it still grows). It also states that Universe started its existance with time. Unfortunately, nobody has proven yet what had happened before time appeared.
Okay, I think that's enough xD
Good luck :3

I'm just gonna steal these facts to impress my friends with..
Might as well join you guys in your discussion, hehe.
1. There is no //real// end to the infinite amount of galaxies that we call space, more rather a bunch of beginnings crammed into the same spot, however in different angles and in different sizes, much like we put recarnation into the section of "life's next big great adventure". There's nothing stopping the galaxies expanding, nor the stars exploding, and there's also nothing stopping death and birth. I like to think of it as alternate universes. Everything revolves around recarnation, including everything that we see, touch, smell, hear, and eat. Everything dies, then it's reborn into a new vessel with a name already claimed for it. Everything follows this system, and there's no actual way to stop/ignore it. It's been this way for a long time, way before our small, crammed universe, existed. I'd be willing to bet there's cilivisation on other planets far far away, but there's no actual way to check until our technology skills have upgraded.
2. As Missy said, there's no end to infinity, yet there's bigger infinites and smaller infinites in math. This also proves the same with galaxies, they're forever but can have smaller and bigger properties than other galaxies, for example the Milky Way. Just because it swirls like a whirlpool does not mean it is one of our smallest and closest galaxies, it just means there's a lot more than you can see with the naked eye or even a telescope! Fun fact, the Milky Way was officially classified as another galaxy in the 1920's, when Edwin Hubble discovered it! Also, he is the namesake of The Hubble Telescope.
Might've rambled a bit there.. anyways, don't want to bore you guys with facts/opinions

space is where the momma sun lives and all her planet children live there too
Nerding out is my job... Most arguments I get into I just slap them in the face with the First Amendment or how bullies are proven to fail in life. Lol, IM NOT ALONE!
Let me give you my info about space.
As a one that went to NASA, and the real NASA in Orlando, saw the Apolo 11 spaceship, saw the Atlantis spaceshuttle, and met a real astronaut, I got tons of info....
1. The galaxies are getting far away from eachother all the time, so the "Space" is getting bigger everytime.
2. In 2067 human kind will land on Mars, if it'll go as schedudeled.
3. We see stars in a red-ly light, it's because our galaxies are getting further, so the light "Widens" so it becomes red.
4. Black holes are created by planets, aka stars, that run out of their fuel, or gas, or the thing they are created from, and they get sucked by their own gravitational power and explode, as a SuperNova. If the star is small, it will just explode gas, and probably recreate itself, and I'd mention that in 5. If the star is bigger than our Sun by X2.001, it will cause a black hole, which is a huge black thingy, that dosen't let anything be near, not even light. The center of it is a massive Gravitational power.
5. Stars and planents were created from gas. When there's a gas of an exploded star, if it's hitting another gas, it can become a new star/planet.
6. There are many of unique stars and planets out there, and I'll tell you 3, that are the most coolest:
A. A planet, that's made out of PURE DIAMOND. It is bigger than Earth.
B. A burning Ice Planet. It is literally Ice, that is burning. It is not getting melted since the core of the planet is very cold, and it has massive gravitational power, so when the molten ice, that is now water, gets to the core, and turns back to ice, and that's the proccess.
C. A star, that one side of it is super cold, and one side is super hot. If you stand on the cold side, you'll freeze to death, if you stand on the hot side, you will probably turn into roasted human. Scientists are assuming that if there are any other Living creatures in space, they will be on the middle of these types of stars, because it's not too hot there, and not too cold there.
Sheesh I love space, being an astronaut sounds fun, and no, not because of that childrens reason, because I LOVE SPACE.
Yey
Back to derp now
Actually, what I've said is that infinity doesn't exist and nothing is infinite; it's what humans came up with.Might as well join you guys in your discussion, hehe.

Yeah I think about it, I've even got a whole theory on how it started...
ya know the big bang? It says that it came out of nowhere but I think that the universe existed before that in a giant black hole but when it expands too much it collapses in on itself, like a supernova, then it explodes out again, and it expands and starts all over, remodeling the universe with the same stuff but in different ways, like recycling. Now we are all in a giant black hole again and some day it will collapse again. Tell me what you think, also if it sounds dumb I have literally no scientific evidence for this but yea xD
