This. Took an astrology course once. It's absolutely insane how big the universe is and how we probably will never find the end of it (if there even is an end). We could build a spaceship that could travel at the speed of light and it would still take 500 years to get to certain stars and galaxys.

I'm with you guys. Astrophysicists claim the universe is still expanding...but what's it expanding into?

It's just expanding into nothing. Faster than the speed of light!  :runaway:

Yes, since fractal geometry was in my original post, it's quite clear this thread has gotten off topic  :users:

I got these things called Bucky Balls from Santa this year. They are 150 tiny ball magnets that I still can't put down. Amazing.

Fractal geometry  :surprised:

Amazing no doubt.  Road Map to all life as we know it.  

Did you see all of the research on antennas being built with fractals?   Even rough ridin' sound waves move in a fractal type form.   Awesome.

Yeah...cell phone towers are going to be the size of softballs in the next year or two.  :party: Also, Star Wars wouldn't exist without fractals  :nerd:

The beginning of existence.    :runaway:
If there was a gif of nicname thwarting the attempted-flag-taker and then gesturing him to suck it, followed by motioning for all of Hilton Shelter to boo him louder, it'd be better than that auburn gif.
