Is there another me if the universe is infinite?

No, there would be no copy of you, even with an infinite universe. Those who have answered by saying that there must be an infinite number of copies of you are flatly mistaken. If space is infinite, then the possible arrangements of matter within it is also infinite.

What would happen if the universe is infinite?

An infinite universe could have a geometry that is totally flat like a piece of paper. Such a universe would go on forever and include every possibility — including endless versions of ourselves. On the other hand, a donut-shaped universe would have to be finite, as it's closed.

Is there anything beyond infinite?

Infinity is a concept, not a number or a fixed boundary, and thus it cannot be passed. Infinity is the idea or concept of something that has no end. Infinity is endless and therefore cannot be reached. The expressions “beyond infinity” or “to infinity and beyond" simply represent limitless possibilities.

Could there be infinite universes?

Possible worlds and real worlds

For example, over infinite time there could, in some potential theories, be infinite universes, but only a small or relatively small real number of universes where humanity could exist and only one where it ever does exist (with a unique history).

Is there anything beyond the universe?

The trite answer is that both space and time were created at the big bang about 14 billion years ago, so there is nothing beyond the universe. However, much of the universe exists beyond the observable universe, which is maybe about 90 billion light years across.

Is the universe Forever?

If so, according to NASA, the universe is not infinite but has no end, just as the area on the surface of a sphere is not infinite but has no beginning or end to speak of. The universe will eventually stop expanding and start collapsing in on itself, the so-called "Big Crunch."

Is it possible to exit the universe?

Thanks to dark energy and the accelerated expansion of the Universe, it's physically impossible to even reach all the way to the edge of today's observable Universe; we can only get a third of the way there at maximum.

How many dimensions exist?

Some theorists have even argued for more, up to an indefinite number of possible dimensions. Other physicists suggest that experimental results have thrown cold water on the case for higher dimensions, leaving us only with the familiar three dimensions of length, width and height, plus the dimension of time.

What is truly infinite?

The actual infinite involves never-ending sets or “things” within a space that has a beginning and end; it is a series that is technically “completed” but consists of an infinite number of members. According to Aristotle, actual infinities cannot exist because they are paradoxical.

Could there be infinite in real life?

Is anything infinite in the physical world? Although the concept of infinity has a mathematical basis, we have yet to perform an experiment that yields an infinite result. Even in maths, the idea that something could have no limit is paradoxical.

What created the universe?

Our universe began with an explosion of space itself - the Big Bang. Starting from extremely high density and temperature, space expanded, the universe cooled, and the simplest elements formed. Gravity gradually drew matter together to form the first stars and the first galaxies.

Does space have an end?

Practically, we cannot even imagine thinking of the end of space. It is a void where the multiverses lie. Our universe alone is expanding in every direction and covering billions of kilometres within seconds. There is infinite space where such universes roam and there is actually no end.

Is our universe the only universe?

Our universe is but one in an unimaginably massive ocean of universes called … the multiverse. If that concept isn't enough to get your head around, physics describes different kinds of multiverse.

How will time end?

Einstein's general theory of relativity predicts that time ends at moments called singularities, such as when matter reaches the center of a black hole or the universe collapses in a “big crunch.” Yet the theory also predicts that singularities are physically impossible.

How long will the universe exist?

Roughly 1 trillion years from now, the last star will be born. In about 100 trillion years, the last light will go out. The bad news is that the universe is going to die a slow, aching, miserable death. The good news is that we won't be around to see it.

It appears that space was created in the Big Bang, 13.8 billion years ago and has been expanding ever since. The overall shape of space is not known, but space is known to be expanding very rapidly due to the cosmic inflation.
