Note that my scientist comment only applies to a certain type of scientist. Some do have a greater grasp of space and time. When I was in Primary school I was daydreaming as usual (which is why I was the school dunce) and contemplated what I've just described here. And to a ten year old that was actually quite scary, since it's very hard to get your head around the fact that the universe is infinite and is initially quite hard for the human brain to compute. A bit like dividing any number by zero on a calculator. But once you've passed that hurdle it just kinda seems OK.
I can recall suddenly trying to explain the infinite nature of the universe to the teacher and they were sort of like WTF?
I just thought I'd share that moment with you.
No alcohol was involved in the making of this particular video. I really do occasionally contemplate infinity.
