Space is never ending,, No beggining and no end,, infinity goes on forever and ever,

There is this theory I read somewhere that space is actually curved fully onto itself like a ball in the higher dimensions. So if you are going absolutely straight in one direction, you are actually not traveling straight in a straight line in the higher dimensions. Its something like, if you travel straight forward on the surface of the earth, you are not actually going straight forward and are going to go all around the earth and back to you r start point. Similarly in space. So you will never reach a boundary in space you will just go round and round. Thus space is infinite in a sense.

Which space? The space America occupies has indistinct borders and outerspace is an area one needs to navigate which ends at worlds with breathable atmospheres. Thus, yes, space has limitations.

We learned in my astronomy class that space, when viewed on the infitinitely largest scale, it is infinite in expanse, and uniform in distribution. Basically if you could step back away from space and look at it(...which is impossible because it goes on forever, but for explaination's sake...) it would look exactly the same no matter where you looked and it would go on forever. The universe is expanding as well....but it's not like things are floating away from eachother in space...space ITSELF is actually expanding. It's really hard to comprehend but that's what we learned is the general idea among astronomers.

The scientific establishment excommunicates any scientist who doesn't accept the dogma that space is finite. They claim to have won the debate over Olber's paradox, but they lie.

The thing is, space is expanding. At a certain distance from us, the expansion of space makes objects move away at the speed of light, so their light is infinitely red-shifted when it gets here. At even greater distances, objects are moving away faster than light, so their light can never reach us. Even if the universe is infinite, we can only see light from a finite part of it.

Note: Relative speeds faster than light, due to expansion of space, do not violate relativity. The speed of light is the speed limit for two objects passing one another. Acceleration, contracts space so that very distant things get closer at speeds faster than light, but Einstein's 4D space-time continuum covertly redifines speed, making it theoretically possible to travel a thousand light years in less than a thousand years, without moving faster than light.

Everything else you can find in nature, including time, is finite. Why should space be an exception?

Einstein has that theory that says we can circumnavigate space. I think mankind cannot understand the concept of infinity. We seem to always need a beginning and an end. Who cares?
