I have been thinking lately that the concept of infinity is just a cop-out for not being able to find answers to scientific questions. I know that comes off as a bit naive perhaps, but the idea of infinity just doesn’t make sense. Think about it for a second. Can you even comprehend the idea? Anway, sure infinity helps out in mathematics alot, but does that really mean it is reflected in the physical world?
Well, now comes news that perhaps the universe is not infinite after all. And even stranger news, it may be shaped like a big ass soccer ball. Hmm. Go with it.
