for ever answer makes thousands of new questions. Which means the more we learn the less we know.

I don't think there is a center of the universe in my opinion it is infinite as is time. why I believe that is simple: There can not be a center because that means there is an end. If there is an end what is on the other side? Similar point with time.

Why, yes, it certainly does.

The human mind has no understanding of, nor experience of, anything INFINITE. Ergo, it is beyond our ability, at this time, to think of the Universe in terms of being infinite, or understand how it is even possible.

All our experience relates to being on this planet (and the moon), where everything if FINITE.

So... we are limited by our experience to 'seeing' things in terms of what we have 'experienced'.

Sometimes we get things right. Mostly, not. We constantly predict what CANNOT be, and then weeks or months later find out that what 'cannot' be actually exists.

Here's a hint: If the Universe in INFINITE, then EVERYTHING is possible, and actually exists, somewhere.

Time is another 'concept' that no other life form except humans 'contemplate'. Perhaps that makes us 'smarter' than the 'lower life forms', perhaps it does not.

It sure as heck doesn't make us happy.

Ever seen a dog look concertedly at his watch?
