@Glennn,
Light moves at a certain speed.
The Universe as we know it ( that contains all the galaxies, solar-systems, suns, and planets ) have a definite shape, that resembles an inverted ballon
traveling, however the central area is moving faster then the outer-layer, as
it-expands.
Imagine if there was a true "edge of the universe". What if the edge kept on
expanding? without consideration of various phenomenon invisible to the naked eye. Meaning it would be practically unreachable. Thus to our normal tools a photograph of this so called physical edge would not be doable under normal circumstances.
When you take a photo ( trust me I know ). Cameras are able to photograph
a blackground on white-space because the speed of the light v. the exposer.
Same reason why you can photograph somebody with an under-exposed sky
( like the sunrise, or sunset ) featuring a darken ( but lit ) background, while lighting up the subject.
It could be like that "stairs in Mario 64". It just keeps on going and going no matter what and while you can cheat your way around to reach the top and their is a true end within grasp we could only assume there is an ending.
However that is a man-made creation and not nature ( Space ).
We are inside something and do not have the correct tools to actually
make any sense of this fact. However my observation is this flat fact.
1. The shape of the Galaxy.
2. My near-death experience.
.........
Imagine two light sources from a viewpoint of a train. If your on the train you see what is up ahead faster then the light source behind you ( like on the great ride of life ). However if you have "God sight" you could see both lights
appear at the same time. Meaning they both go off at the same time.
If a person passes away ( die, etc ) no matter which time, they arrive at the end of time. Meaning we all that lives or non-living can exist in the same space. Their awareness starts and end at the same point. Why Imagine the sun going supernova right now or even a galaxy crashing into another galaxy. To even making that great trip around the galaxy. What would happen to our little blue planet?
What is it all for?

Thus we must be inside a cocoon, a box, a pod, something. We are the dreamer, that sleeps, and something is missing. That must be the correct answer. How do you know your dreaming? They say "words in a dream would look unreadable". However we are on a planet that is unreadable via different language.
