The Unthinkable

What does one think about when you hear the word Universe? We typically think about stars, planets, meteors and the possibility of another form of life such as aliens. But when I think  about our universe I often wonder what is really out there and are we really the only known lime form out there. For me I think about it as our universe is inside a snow globe and we are just a small fraction of the actual world. It makes me wonder what is really out there in the other universes. Is it other forms of life or is it just galaxies, stars and planets. This is something that will always be discussed and in my opinion we will never know the answer to. The meaning of the Universe to me is something that is not necessarily big cause when you think about it we are literally just a dot in just our universe alone. There are millions of other universes out there and we are just one of them. Who knows maybe in different universes you go into a different life forms. There also a possibility that we are the universe that is so called the other life form and we are the aliens of the world. There are many things that we never know about the universe therefore having to describe the meaning of the word universe very difficult.

  1. When thinking about the Universe, one either believes in science (the Big Boom), or in some sort of God. I for one believe in Science in the fact that the Universe was once a tiny cluster of energy and then expanded to create what we have today as a Universe. I also believe in the theory of evolution. When one thinks of the Universe, it is hard for someone to wrap their minds around the fact that we are, in comparison, a grain of sand on a beach. The chances of there actually being some sort of life form out there are pretty good in my opinion. I feel people that believe in god are too narrow minded to see that there is no such thing.

  2. I agree with you in the fact that there are infinite possibilities of what could be out there. The definition of what the universe is can be tricky because we will never fully know what is out there. How could we? It takes us months to get to planets that look so close in our skies but no one thinks about how far away the stars we see are. I think the trip to mars that is happening now is a new step for the human race to expand in our universe whether it becomes permanent or not.
