1 light year

5 light years

10 million

100 million

As time goes on more parts become the parts

of the observable universe Is the universe infinite? We don’t know! But Every study to date has shown that infinity

does not stand in physics

Infinity works in math but hasn't work in physics

Is energy of vacuum One of the biggest mysteries in physics

The most miscalculated parameter in all physics!

Calculated value off by 10^120 from observed value

Curvature >0

Curvature =0

Curvature < 0

I would like to especially thank Mr. Frank Nabavi for his tremendous help and feedback in the process of making this Project. Without his continuous guidance creation of this work wouldn't have been possible.
