[QUOTE="Wildstar, post: 28723, member: 1454"] [b]Re: What is the Universe?[/b] "If there was something that made a huge explosion causing the universe to constantly expand, gobbling up or taking up more and more space (used loosely to describe what was physically around the universe in it's larval stage), then first, what is the universe taking space from; second, what was the cause of that first explosion; and third, exactly what exploded in the first place? In other words, what did the "universe" start out as (before the big bang), what was it sitting in (or hanging in, whatever the case might have been), and what was it's ignitor." The universe isn't expanding into anything, it is space! what caused it can be a couple of things. It could have been a quantum fluctuation that just happened. I subscribe to chaotic inflation in which our universe sprouted from a previous universe. that universe came from yet another, forever. see link [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chaotic_inflation]Chaotic Inflation theory - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia[/url] After thinking about this for awhile, egregiously working at a US Postal Service Remote Encoding Center...LOL, it seems also to bring up another theory about mass, and many more questions to accompany it like: "Is there anything currently outside our universe?" In M-theory everything we see exists on a 3d membrane or brane that floats in a higher 11 dimensionl space. so in some sense there is an outside. If this is the only universe, then probably not. But assuming a level 2 universe or higher exists, then yes there are parallel worlds out there to deal with. see link [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiverse]Multiverse - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia[/url] "Did an entity cause that universe birthing explosion?" No one knows. I don't think it's necessary for any such god or whatever to create the universe. I think that an ever branching set of universes that have always existed it most likely the truth. "Is the universe really the biggest thing we have the capacity to believe in?" No. I think 11 dimensional hyperspace is the biggest thing. Infinity. "What is the largest thing anyone can think of?" See above. "What is the smallest thing anyone can think of (Do we really think we've found it)?" I like the ideas of string theory in that the string IS the smallest thing possible. But who knows. "Is it at all possible that there is no "Biggest" or "Smallest" thing and that the size of "things" is truly infinite either way?" Thats possible. "Does our perspective limit our belief?" Yes. "Is our perspective the only thing limiting our existance?" Reality limits our existance. "Are we truly the figment of our own imaginations?" I don't think so. "Are we truly only physically existant in nature?' No, our minds are made up of energy. "What is the nature of our existance?" Unknown. [/QUOTE]
