We could not pass the boundary of the observable universe, ever. It's moving faster than the speed of light anyway. To an observer outside of the "edge" looking inwards, our universe would appear to be a shade of beige.

That's funny and ironic

I can't. nothing is easy for me. it would just be empty black to us
yeah but thats something. image nothing as in no black, no emptiness itself, no white, existence itself is nothing. yeah darkness is the absence of light but thats still something. its like closing your eyes and imaging yourself dead. you cant because you always feel something. nothing is a weird topic

infinity is easy for me. i think of it in terms of math. mostly graphing. a line approaching 0 but never touching it. infinite. it will always get smaller and smaller in the decimal range. the range of it only stops when i stop thinking about it

well, we would still see blackness. because no light would be going into our eyes. and what we would see is all that really matters to me

huh? it's called the "observable" universe for a reason. because there's (probably??) more that we just can't see right now. and there's not some kinda magical thing that prevents beings from going beyond a certain distance from their home planet

and I don't see any real reason we couldn't eventually be able to travel faster than light, one way or another. even if it's only technically "faster than light" because you're getting from one point to another before light would have

and it's not like there would be an actual end to the universe. that wouldn't make sense. I imagine it either expands as the matter and energy inside it does, or it's just infinite to begin with

fun fact: faster than light travel is possible

this. most people dont realize that going faster than light isnt breaking any laws of physics. physics only says information can't travel faster than light.

FTL travel is theorectically possible if you have a device that can bend the fabric of space time using negative energy, but we aren't sure if negative energy even exists.

fun fact: faster than light travel is possible
its not been proven fully yet and its only theoretical

i recall reading something somewhere about neurons or whatever going faster than light

We could not pass the boundary of the observable universe, ever.
by "observable" universe they mean as far as our space telescopes go. the universe is pretty huge but we only seen like a fraction of it
beyond that is... *nothing* (theoretically)(past the whole universe not observable universe i mean)



it's the majesty of God's creation :)

when I look out there into those stars, I see how good my God is, and how awesome and creative he is. It just makes me want to worship him even more!

On that note, tonight is my church's Youth Fellowship out at the beach; we're going stargazing with high-powered telescopes. I'm really excited!
planr pls

oh forget we underestimated him
