We know that we have observed galaxies out to as much as 14 billion light
years from us in every direction, and we have never seen an end to it yet.
Scientists currently believe that no, the universe is not infinite. It is of a finite size however, this finite size is constantly expanding but not expanding AWAY from anything, just expanding
they know everything
Yes.
blah blah blah... I dont know...
Scientists who study the universe are known as cosmologists.
Scientists do not know how to create a portal to a different universe. They don't even know if it is possible. Alternate universes are merely theories. In the television show The Flash, they are working on this and it may take Flash traveling the speed of light.
They don't.
The way the universe works now is the same as how it did in the past, as well as how it will work in the future, which is unverifiable and therefore must be assumed. Some examples: - Scientists assume that there is no way to secure complete and absolute truth - Secular scientists assume that the earth and universe were not created supernaturally. - Scientists assume that natural laws we identify will apply to all of the universe - Scientists assume that they all work towards the common good - Scientists assume life can evolve on earth in the presence of water - Most scientists assume near-death experiences and out-of- body experiences are a result of a lack of oxygen in the brain
Sometimes they do, sometimes they don't.
We know how big it is now, we know how old it is, and we know the rate of expansion. Its like rewinding a movie that you started in the middle. We just rewind the known universe as it is now. We dont know how big it was before the big bang but we know how big it was at the initial kaboom.
Given the size of the universe, it is almost impossible for Earth to be the only place where life has developed. Some scientists also just want to know what is there; they don't believe or disbelieve, but want to find out.
The universe isn't a place that has stayed big for years. The universe keeps on expending. Scientists don't when this expantion is going to stop but they do know that planets are constantly being created while expanding. Who knows, God might be doing this
