    Question: where does the universe end? Are there other universes? If so, where do they end?

    • Answer: We have no idea.

      At all.
      It's great!

    • It's a problem that seems unsolvable by basic logicukit
    • It only makes sense with extremely esoteric theoretical physics and even then nobody really gets it and its still not verifiableDodecahedron
    • ...verifiable experimentally ot observationally.Dodecahedron
    • enter Large Hadron Collider with the answers.Dodecahedron
    • our brains can't fathom something that never begins and never ends, doesn't mean it can't exist, mind.set
    • Logic is a regional anomaly.Horp
    • our brains can fathom it, its a circle. We used ot think we'd fall of the end of a flat earth until we learned about gravity and planetsDodecahedron
    • ...and round planets.Dodecahedron
    • But stuff still exists outside of the Earth so that doesn't completely workukit
    • but space and time is all there is in this universe. the other universes have their own space and time.Dodecahedron
    • Actually "the universe" is supposed to represent everything.ukit
    • Either way you're faced with the problem of infinityukit
    • I guess we probably won't solve it today:)ukit
    • for a better infinityDodecahedron
    • and beyond!set
    • the universe is finite and although it's currently expanding more physicists are saying it will contract/collapse on itself and start cycle overhotroddy
    • all speculation.set
