It just goes on and on and on to, you guessed it... infinity.
I'll state my belief here and leave it as is I swear... ONLY God can explain ENDLESSNESS, that's just it for me... how do you explain eternal nothing, there is no "wall" to space, it just goes on and on.
Hawking, Tyson, don't really care who is put forth... they cannot explain how all of this came to be, much less where the material for it came from nor where it all ends.
Science is ARROGANT, it attempts to explain the UNEXPLAINABLE... and if you don't subscribe to the mainstream magazine, you're a heretic and a kook.
Galileo knows that feeling...

We don't know. So you cannot really make claims about what there can or cannot be. Infinity is just as impossible to describe as a contained universe.
It's very dangerous to simply attribute things that cannot be presently explained as therefore being acts of God, as if they are forever unknowable. History has unequivocally proven that the more we learn more about the universe, the fewer unknowns there are to be attributed to God. The windows of unknowns have been shrinking considerably, especially in the last few centuries. But one thing has been certain, it's never went the other direction. We have an incredible ways to go in understanding for sure.
Science is not arrogant. It attempts to understand the unexplainable. It's driven by truth and accuracy. You don't have to be mainstream you just have to be proven.
Galileo was punished by the Church. He's a perfect example of making a scientific claim, which in today's times would sound as crazy as saying there's an end to the universe. The Church said he was arrogant for proclaiming to know more than what the Bible said. Turns out he was correct.
Please don't try and turn this into a science bashing battle again. This is the last I'm commenting on this.
