Is there an end to the cosmos? Is there a vast Trumpian wall out there somewhere marking the end of infinity. But if so, what's on the other side? Or it's perhaps what Einstein once said, "I could be bound in a nutshell and call myself king of infinite space"! My good friend, Tim, who is no longer with us having passed on to his maker at the age of 44, once told me when we were discussing that puzzle for which there is no answer that; "where the big meets the small we will find the answer to it all". Who knows, but just perhaps looking inward toward that smallest of things will lead us to the boundary of the largest. Sometime I feel foolish pondering the imponderable.

Interesting quote because as soon as I saw your question I knew my answer would be Carl Sagan's belief that the universe(s) go to infinity in physical dimension. Our universe is both the size of an atom to someone else and an impossibly large entity to yet someone else. It is impossible to understand which is why it is so wonderful and also why it had to be created by God.
Hey Kid, Awesome pic as usual. With all the "stuff" happening on our Rock it is nice to know that there are definitely sweeter spots in Gods Universe than where we sit.
That is incredibly beautiful, Kid. When you see things like this it makes you not worry too much about being deplorable.
ReplyDeleteAdrienne. SO much beauty. Infinite Beauty.
DeleteAdrienne. The big picture is important. meow.

ReplyDeleteChristopher, Thank you. I find it very helpful for me to look at the big picture often. Especially as each day unfolds these days.
