Pryex Posted June 1, 2010 Author Share Posted June 1, 2010 I'll cut straight to the point.What happens when you hit the edge of the universe.It popped into my head earlier, and has me baffled now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robin Posted June 1, 2010 Share Posted June 1, 2010 You'd never be able to reach it. Even if you travelled at the speed of light you'd die centuries before you reached even our nearest neighbour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admiral Refuge Posted June 1, 2010 Share Posted June 1, 2010 You… can't?Anyone know the rate, that the universe is increasing at? Physically, nothing exists past the edge of the universe (atleast until the universe expands to that area); this includes the three spatial dimensions, which means you can't actually "move" to the area past the edge of the universe.

Kusy Posted June 1, 2010 Share Posted June 1, 2010 Oh gosh, I was afraid that Admiral will see this toppic.I cnow you are atracted to weird shit like this, but let's just make fun of the stupid question, k? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homicidal Monkey Posted June 1, 2010 Share Posted June 1, 2010 the rate of the universes expansion is >= the universal speed limit, "c". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kusy Posted June 1, 2010 Share Posted June 1, 2010 so it's>=C? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pryex Posted June 1, 2010 Author Share Posted June 1, 2010 How's it a stupid question?It was actually something I was wondering about, i want a straight answer! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sowtis Posted June 1, 2010 Share Posted June 1, 2010 If you did end up actually hitting the edge of the universe, you explode and create your own universe.That's my theory. :renzo: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kusy Posted June 1, 2010 Share Posted June 1, 2010 You would cease to exist since you would be outside of the borders of existance. You could highfive god then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course we all know that was a joke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adulese Games Posted June 1, 2010 Share Posted June 1, 2010 I squelled when I saw this topic. I actually specialize on this field. Okay, don't think of the Universe as being finite. Think of it as an expanding area of matter that is surrounded by a 10th dimensional membrane. Or a bubble if you will. Now, several leading theories suggest that Existance is just a collection of bubble universes or just collections of seperate expanding/contracting packets of stuff.So if you were able to exist this universe (which you cannot), theoretically you would enter a void of nothingness and I do mean nothing. The laws of physics don't apply and it is so cold even time stops. That's what waits for you at the end of our Universe.- Adulese Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
death Posted June 1, 2010 Share Posted June 1, 2010 @Robin:> You'd never be able to reach it. Even if you travelled at the speed of light you'd die centuries before you reached even our nearest neighbour.It is impossible to get to the speed of light anyway Robin. As your mass would get larges as your speed increased forcing you to use more energy, to make your mass even more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lollicat Posted June 2, 2010 Share Posted June 2, 2010 Just my personal theory, but taking the one idea that there are more than one alternate universes, perhaps you would enter the next? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thorn Posted June 2, 2010 Share Posted June 2, 2010 First up, it's impossible to get to the edge of the universe, because the universe is continually expanding. If you could somehow trick reality into letting you catch up and pass, my theory is that you would re-enter from the other side of the universe.Whoever made everything used looping maps.

lollicat Posted June 2, 2010 Share Posted June 2, 2010 I think that sounds reasonable, it's pretty mind-boggling to think of it, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kusy Posted June 2, 2010 Share Posted June 2, 2010 It doesn't mindbggle me… sadly I'm a quite simple man, when I try to think about a problem such as this one my mind is like "dude, why the fudge are you thinking about this, it's so god damn unimportant, impossible and random and has no chances of happening to you and probobly anyone else, go grab yourself a sandwich or sumtin"... and then I'm like grabbin myself a sandwich or sumthin'.
