Re: Explaining the Universe - Yet Again.... ;-)
True.
Remember, it's still slow going around the galaxy, (let alone the universe) moving at the speed of light. The distances/amount of space involved is almost unfathomable.
We need a better understanding of "space time." Propulsion/speed can only take us so far - not very.
You touched on several basic principles, i.e. if nothing had existed, there would always be nothing and energy merely changes form.
Easy to overlook from our tiny little rock I guess.
See ya, VINCE
