Does the space have an END?
Scientists are trying to figure out whether the universe has an end?
If there is an end then what does it look like? Is it in the form of
a cliff or a wall? It cannot be cause walls and cliffs have an
"other side" to them. So there is something beyond that wall or
cliff if any.
Is the universe round like the Earth?
You can go around the Earth without
ever falling off. If the Universe was round then we could keep on
traveling endlessly without turning back, (maybe for billions of
years) and return to Earth!
According to Albert
Einstein’s theory of space and time, round is one of the shapes the
universe can have. His theory also says that the universe might be
flat and goes on endlessly in all directions. Then if you try
traveling in any direction then you’d never return back to the
Earth.
We seem to be still
pondering about the fact whether the universe is round or flat? Is
it all together a different shape, which no one might have thought
about? One way to solve this mystery in order to accurately measure how
much energy there is in space. But measuring space is proving to be
very difficult, and the scientists do not know how much there is
yet.
The shape of
the universe still remains a mystery to us! |
