  • THE UNIVERSE IS FLAT BITCH

  • Please some one tell me the universe has a shape my friend says it's it possible for it to have a shape I think it does have a shape

  • Wait the empty spots on the universe's map can prove that... I think.

  • To easily visualize the effect that would have just stand between 2 mirrors. So we might be looking a tad too far. It's like we are looking at the back of our heads. I'm also guessing that anything outside our galactic clusters is what we looked like x million year ago. Anyway I'm sure my theory can easily be proven right or wrong.

  • I'm not a scientist or anything, but from the info I heard I came to a conclusion. If the universe is "round" or curb, if i remember correctly. Then on a map the coordinate on a cartesian map should read"X,Y,Z" for a three dimension view. So ading a "curb" should add a 4th coordinate. Something like "C". Now X, Y and Z would be from 0 to 10(just giving some random numbers) and we give "C" 10 to 0. C's 10 beeing in the middle and 0 at the edge

  • I don't see why you'd say that.... I mean, sure, at some parts on your journey you may be bigger or smaller because of the stretched or compacted space/time--- but when you got to your original location the space/time wouldn't have changed it's characteristics, so you'd naturally have morphed to fit them. You will always be the same size relative to your ship, and when you and your ship return to Earth, it'll be relatively the same size it was when you left.... I think.

  • similar to how on earth if you walk a straight line in one direction you will end up back where you started because of the sphere shape. Only the universe shape is much more complex because you have to account general relativity, hence my demensional/ size theory.

  • I theorize that if you go far enough in a straight line, you would end up right back where you started, but would be exponentially larger or smaller. So different from your original size that you would not recognize your starting point. Or, you may be back where you started, but in a different dimension, or possibly both or maybe the size and dimension are one in the same.
