Does an infinite universe means infinite possibilities?
If there is a finite probability of something happening (ie. a planet forming around a star, or a galaxy forming), then in an infinite universe there will be an infinite number of that thing. So there would be an infinite number of galaxies and planets in an infinite universe.
Can you get stuck in an infinite loop?
In multi-threaded programs some threads can be executing inside infinite loops without causing the entire program to be stuck in an infinite loop. If the main thread exits all threads of the process are forcefully stopped thus all execution ends and the process/program terminates.
Why do physicists believe that the universe is infinite?
Anyway the reason why physicists believe the universe is infinite is because they believe that particle exists “in” spacetime (which is correct) and that spacetime is made of nothing (which is not correct but some will say that it made of energy which is correct but they have no idea of how)…
Is the universe infinite or finite?
The universe may be infinite, but we can only see a finite section of it due to the finite speed of light.
How much of the universe can we see?
The universe may be infinite, but we can only see a finite section of it due to the finite speed of light. We can only see those parts from which light has had time to reach us since the beginning of the universe – which means we can (in theory) see a spherical universe with radius of about 47 billion light years.
How many galaxies and planets are there in an infinite universe?
So there would be an infinite number of galaxies and planets in an infinite universe. If however there is an infinitesimal probability of something happening, then in an infinite universe there would only be a finite number (for example 1) of those things.
