The question is a logical mish-MASH. Who said you need to use the entire universe

to measure the speed of anything ? Simply define your own start and end points,

and then measure the time light takes to travel between them. The points can be

as mundane as two opposite walls of the restroom in your laboratory.

Q: If the universe is infinite then there can be no such thing as the speed of light as it has no start point and end point therefore there is just a constant the past and future exist at the same level?

In the infinite universe theory does the universe have no beginning and no end just like numbers from negative numbers going to positive numbers?

There is reason to believe that there is an infinity of space out there, just as time is infinite, both in the past, and in the future. At some stage in this infinity of time and space, our universe began. In fact, the multiverse hypothesis says that our universe is only one of many such universes that have come into existence, or will in the infinite future. However, Einstein proposed that our universe (and therefore each universe if the multiverse hypothesis is correct) is curved, so that it in some way has an outer boundary contrary to Professor Hawkins saying the universe may have no boundary as the universe is possibly self contained. Minority viewpoint: The Infinite Universe Theory states that the universe exists everywhere and for all time. Thus the universe had no beginning, although each part of it has a beginning and an ending, being assembled from other parts in the necessarily Infinite Universe. This is in tune with the First Law of Thermodynamics (Conservation), which states that "Matter and the motion of matter neither can be created nor destroyed." The opposing assumption is Creation, the belief that something could be created out of nothing. The Big Bang Theory of the origin of the universe is wildly popular largely because most people follow religious tradition in assuming Creation. In tune with that logic, modern physicists accept numerous odd claims such as the shibboleth that space could be curved even though it is supposed to be completely empty. For further details go to www.thescientificworldview.com. the whole point is the universe don't have a end because it has no beginning


What are the different kinds of theories of universe?

One, that the universe is infinite, thus meaning it continues forever. Two, that the universe is finite (has an end) and is expanding but gradually reducing speed and in the future may start to reverse and contract. In the end compacting into an immense power and then exploding. A cycle. Big bang.

Does the Halo franchise take place in an alternate future or does it take place in our universe?

Both. Since the future has not yet happened, it is not technically our universe. So to answer your question, it takes place in a fictional future based off of our universe.

Why do the atheists believe in the future without evidence while they claim lack of evidence for their disbelief in the creator of the universe?

Since the material existence lacks the will and knowledge for planning for the future; the future can only be attributed to the conscious living creator of the universe. Therefore, belief in the creator of the universe is the only possible basis for belief in the future. This means that the atheist claim of disbelief in the creator of the universe cannot be true.Answer:Playing around with the word "believe" does nothing to prove anything in this question. Most people accept that the present moment is contiguous to a past moment and a future moment, no belief in a deity is required for this view of continuity of existence. it should be pointed out that there is no "standard" atheist. The only common position they have is the that there is no deity or deities. A common or agreed on atheist position on the future is not available.Answer:To some degree there does seem to be evidence for the future. We know from experience that we have each had a past and that our past has moved into the present. We also know that our current present was simply the future of the past. Considering we witness this process of the evolution of time constantly it is easy to believe that there will be a future. Weather we are in it or not we will never know though.We also know that the universe does have a beginning i.e., it was non-existent before coming into existence. Therefore, instead of future, there also could be non-existence. Besides, the human life can end at any moment without prior warning or notice.Anyway, predictability of the sequence of events means that the universe is an organized and planned event. Therefore, the evidence for the future is basically the evidence for the creator of the universe.Saeed H H Alyousuf


Will the darkness of the universe brighten and lighten up?

no, what would power it in a universe as cold as this (3K) and getting colder as it expands? And evidence indicates that about 3 billion years or so ago it started accelerating the expansion, therefore in the future it will cool even faster.


What is the future of the universe?

Some scientists say that the universe will stop growing once it has finished growing, some say it will explode and some say it will start to shrink. That is a good answer but there is a mathematical constant which explains this. Q=the density of matter in the universe. If the universe continues to expand, then Q<1 .If it shrinks ,then Q>1, if it continues to change sizes...........but never actually finishes it's size then Q=1.
