Hello.
I've been having some thoughts about the universe and I want to share them.
If we consider a couple of facts;
1) The Universe haven't been here forever. (It had a beginning)
2) The speed of light is NOT infinite but have a speed at 3x10^5 km/s
With those two facts we get an "edge" of the universe.
We also know that the universe its expanding and actually is accelerating in its expansion which is a consequence of what I would guess would be "dark energy".
Our horizon in the universe is about 14 billion years, we don't know if the universe is twice our horizon or infinitely larger than our horizon same if your a ship at sea you got a horizon with you in the center of a perfect circle but you don't know how much bigger the ocean is than your horizon.
My curiosity is;
The universe is an accelerating expanding place and at SOME point galaxy's would be so far away from each other that they will become invisible and we won't be able to see or detect the cosmos as we can now.
Am I correct or have I completely misunderstood something?
