  • For everyone experiencing the existential dread, just remember two things. One, the timelines of when we would get to the point of the heat death of the universe so incredibly massive for us it might as well be infinity. Two, our understanding of the universe is constantly changing! 10 or 20 years from now it may be an entirely different idea of what will happen. Ultimately the dynamics of how the universe plays out are completely out of your control, just live your best life and rest easy knowing that the outcome doesn't matter to you, the entire human race, or even the planet itself.

  • Find the beauty in whats here and now. And always remember that you too can go out, look into the night sky and see its beauty. I hope one day we find a solution to light saturation so we all can experience the distance of the void outside. However, more than existential, this should humble us. Love and live through your life to the fullest you can, and regardless if there is an inevitability that ends us in darkness, keep pushing for a better tomorrow. For you, for me, for everyone that comes after, especially for those we've lost. With everything against us, our lives defy the dark, and our insignificance in the grand scheme gives us a blank canvas, to create a picture we can make ourselves, even if we're long forgotten. Be safe out there, be you, don't let the digital connectedness we find here pull us apart elsewhere. Be human. Thank you all for your efforts in your own lives.

Happiness will come and go, if we're always happy it just becomes normalcy, and suddenly its not really considered happiness anymore. Don't give yourself to sadness, and if you feel everything is too much, reach out to hotlines, reach out to people in your life. Sometimes we need and require that social interaction. Whatever you do, be you, do what you can. I can't diagnose issues, I cannot provide all answers you may feel you require to be happy. The canvas we paint will provide us answers though, and lead us to happiness somehow.

    • The Great Attractor, also known as Bolder's ring, more commonly known simply as the ring (or the Xeelee Ring), is a highly advanced Xeelee structure and one of their greatest achievements.Twenty-first century humanity was aware of the gravitational anomaly created by the ring and dubbed it the Great Attractor. Upon discovery of the ring itself, humanity mistakenly assumed it to be a weapon, while instead it is a portal used to escape the universe. The ring has a diameter of 10 million light-years (100 times that of the Milky Way galaxy) and is made of cosmic superstring. The Xeelee constructed it over the course of billions of years during which they converted the mass of thousands of galaxies into the ring's superstring. The ring spins near the speed of light, which combined with its mass, causes the creation of a naked singularity at its center. The enormous mass of the ring locally counteracts the expansion of the universe.

  • I see space as a weather system. Regions have high and low pressure with complex fluid movements. What's really hard 4-dimensional thinking is that there is not only localized space-pressure but also time-pressure. A region such as the Great Attractor is not necessarily more dense, but there is more space and time inside it.

    • Imagine if you will a disk. Inside of that disc is a bunch of galaxies. The disk is pushed forward by an unknown force. Because of that unknown force the disc is now generating friction. The friction causes the disk to expand as it moves forward. Compression from movement and friction causes expansion. Friction pushing down Forward motion pushing up. Now the forward motion is pulling the galaxies with the universe. More friction. Galaxies are filled with mass and matter. The galaxies spin from friction caused by the pull of the universe. The universe now spins because of the friction from the galaxies. Each galaxy having its own spin because of mass and matter that create the friction. All matter in every galaxy now has gravity. The matter is spinning from the friction of the galaxy moving forward as the universe moves forward. Simple physics. Observable facts. Time is not relative to space.

The number I once heard was 1 in 10^1080: that number is bigger than the atoms in the observable universe (2 trillion galaxies). But in a literally infinite universe, any odds, no matter how insanely small, are guaranteed to happen.

Tendencies show that our universe is probably just a small village and there are always more levels towards infinity. We see same things if we go microscopic. So basically we are standing somewhere on a ruler and we can't see the beginning and the end of it.

  • imagine a bubble, containing another smaller bubble with a mixture of volatile elements. elements in the smaller bubble react, bubble explodes sending the reacting elements into the space of the larger bubble. the walls of the larger bubble will warp and expand as all the elements are racing out towards the walls, then back towards the epicenter before finding their own paths. Laniakea Supercluster looks like a bubble universe.

  • Yes, you are so right. I have studied space. We are moving at those speeds through space. Not so sure we are going to go through a blackhole. I do believe that something is pulling galaxies through space, and I think you are on to something, I didn't consider your theory before, but now I understand, thanks. We are expanding, the universe is a living entity. Great video, I do understand. Some galaxies merge and make a new galaxies, worlds are destroyed and then made whole again. No need to fear this.

  • Awesome video, Thoughty2! 😊 I also have an intriguing idea of what the Gnostics were really referring to when they mentioned Pleroma, or "The Realm of Light". I believe wholeheartly that in some region of space (some say edge, but whatever) that the singularity that existed before the big bang is still there. It's just traveling there is a bit like traveling through time, but we're literally going back in time just by heading in that direction (which you've already pointed out we will never be able to reach it). The Gnostics were probably referring to this singularity and not an actual 'God' per sé. Their knowledge of this singularity, if it had been directly revealed, might've literally gotten them killed for herasy.

It will all just be lost in time, no good to anyone. And even if this time is incomprehensively far into the future, it still makes me feel like _"What's the point then?

Darkmatter is not some mysterious exotic matter. It is the unsee matter scattered throughout empty space. There is an estimated 0.8 atoms per cubic meter in space. There is a LOT of empty space and all those atoms quickly add up to a lot of mass. Each one exerting it own tiny pull on everything else in the universe.

  • The Great Attractor is a gravitational locus at the heart of a vast cosmic structure that all surrounding galaxies, including the Milky Way, are falling towards. It is not a single entity but rather a place, located within the Laniakea Supercluster, which is a massive cluster of galaxies. The Great Attractor is characterized by its strong gravitational pull that affects around 100,000 galaxies over a region spanning more than 500 million light-years. It contains mass equivalent to 10 quadrillion Suns, making it a significant point of interest in understanding the large-scale structure of the universe and the movement of galaxies within it.

  • Sometbing with such an absurdly large mass could probably prevent light that would normally radiate from escaping, it might look like a bunch of galaxies but as objects reach a black hole it appears to slow down from the outside, how do we know thats not happening with the great attractor? Attractors could pull on each other until all mass is in one location then another big bang could happen all for the cycle to repeat itself just like how a heart beats
