infinite size or not

[mal]

lets say theres world where the space keep expanding. if u fly faster than that u will go to another direction instead of go outside that world. is it count as infinite size bcuz of WoG said so or not

Ask Ethan: What would happen if you traveled in a straight line forever?

Is the Universe finite or infinite? Does it go on forever or loop back on itself? Here's what would happen if you traveled forever.

This should answer your question

so the answer is not right?

 

[JustANormalPerson01]

Yeah. I mean, the fact that it keeps expanding seems to contradict it being infinite

It will never be infinite because it loops back at itself, no matter how much it expands unless stated otherwise.

It's not really infinite in term of size because there's the limit to where you can reach. It depends on the context and how their cosmology works too.

But generally, this is not the case that should qualify as infinite.

I wouldnt say that a universe that expands at an infinite speed its infinite because there are bigger levels of infinite

 

[Aether2734]

It just ad infinitum
Endlessly expand without ever reach true infinite

If it already is infinite, even if it is "expanding" at infinite speed, it'd stull be countable infinite... so not expanding at all.

That's why it's contradictory
