Hercules-Corona Borealis Great Wall
Is a galactic structure 10 billion light years away, so the light we see it with is 10 billion years old, from when our universe was @ 3.8 billion years old.
It is (then) 10 billion light years across, which would seem to be impossible in a universe only 3.8 billion years old.( how could it be 10 billion light years across, when lights best speed would only travel 38% of that distance since lights' creation?)
So is the Big Bang theory wrong?
Were the limits of light's speed not yet written when the early expansion of coalesced matter occurred to create this structure?
Are there sequential Big Bangs within the same universe?
Something different, involving extra dimensional matter colliding into our universe?
Something even weirder?😮

It's a consequence the weird geometry of the Universe, if you could see all the way back to the big bang, to the observer, it would look like a 26~30 billion light year diameter sphere around him/her, but that sphere is an almost single point in space, it's weird but that's how it works

I'm still thinking about it..
Reasoning..
Is life the interaction of physical stuff the body..or is it the interaction of a force on the physical (another form of energy)..or is energy alive.. or is life made of energy..or is life an interaction of something beyond the universe with the physical?
Then again does something have to be able to think to be alive?
ie life is existence..to be alive is to exist?
If there was no energy could life exist? Is life a physical entity? If it is then it cannot exist outside the universe..as such could the word immortal be an oxymoron?
Is life immortal? Theoretically if the universe is eternal then life would be immortal..the reverse would also be true..not necessarily that a person would exist for ever but life like a force such as magnetism would exist within the universe for ever..the next question would be does energy have an intention ie it makes rules and laws that govern the universe and its interactions.

Is a persons mind like a particle once created it is entangled with the physical body?
It would be interesting to ask the question does a persons mind actually exist or is it an illusion created by energy?
But then you would have to ask is the mind energy if it is, it must exist. So is life the tension between existence and illusion?
(are the two the same thing) In this case energy thinks it is alive so it is?
This also asks the stupid question can energy think its alive when not in physical form?
What is life "Physical form" or "energy that believes its alive "?
So I'm still thinking about it..as I look at life around me I have to ask the question is life one thing? ie all life is one entity I am part of everything and everything is part of me..when I look at a bird am I looking at myself or another part of me...or is it another thing within a single item the universe?
Could we all be part of the mind of the universe? If this were true then I cannot differentiate a slug to a pig to a bird to me..yes might be hard to accept so its probably wrong..(I am special because I think I am?) Energy of life somehow moulded into form<<sounds nuts doesn't it..😀
Take it one step further I will give you a pile of rocks your task is to create life..take it one step further I will give you ultimate nothing and you will create life..

In the last post ultimate nothing is zero dimensions.
Its to fantastic to be true isn't it? Just like a dream..

Its a difficult question to answer.. Philosophy is normally a combination of other ideas. The true wisdom is said to come from inside you. Everything there is to know you are already in contact with its normally becoming aware of it!
There is the problem.
Some people meditate to try to reach a level of understanding and some follow other ideas, that's where the simple ideas of "One hand clapping " come from.. things like "what is the sound of one hand clapping" and "there is only what there is, there is nothing more"...those two sayings I have been trying to answer for nearly forty years..there is always more but its a good place to start..
If you believe there is good and evil you have to ask in what reference do these contexts stand..Then what is life, and what does it mean to be a part of the above and what is truth? Who am I is an interesting question...often followed by what is the sound of silence..
This is touched on in many films like Dune<<<the sleeper must awaken! (You have opened your eyes by asking the question there is no way back) sorry!
Another was the star child in 2001...
Just a few ideas..😀 ..Does good an evil exist beyond the human mind? there is an easy one for you..
Remember Bruce Lee..like a finger pointing to the stars..don't look at the finger or you will miss all that heavenly glory..(this is the problem with philosophy).
As soon as you ask the question you have missed the point (if there was one in the first place)

I would sooner say... Philosophy is a combination of all ideas.
But I'm probably abnormal.🙂
How?
And isn't "all" more inclusive than "other"?
" Known" is of course implied, "all known."

As soon as you put something into a context it becomes limited.
All has to be in existence at the point of saying it.
Where as all that can be is not limited. (within the constraint of knowable).
Which is also another limitation based upon human intellect.
Philosophy by nature is limited..you only need to go back a short way to find the limitation..how long ago was today unknowable..
Every moment once past is to far away to reach as is a fraction of a second in the future. We are truly isolated but unaware of it.
Philosophy tries to raise awareness, however nothing can bridge time. (that we know of)
Such was the idea of the Moth-men that could see further than we could, but not all knowing.

All knowledge is contextual.
Limits are what make something something, and not something else.
Philosophy can guide one's future, but it cannot foresee it like a crystal ball. Well, neither can a crystal ball for that matter.
I'll add this also... It isn't "philosophy by nature is limited." Nature didn't create philosophy. It is manmade. Man's intellectual capacity is limited (by nature). In other words, philosophy's limitation is actually man's limitation. "Limited" isn't an identifying characteristic (ie its nature) of philosophy.
By "we" you must mean other persons. I'm aware of the past and cognisant of the future. As are many many others.
The Moth-men??? I don't know what that means. Some B monster movie reference?
Like all things we do, it is all related to instrumantation and set up. What is it and how are you perceiving it? and Where? Knowledge, tools, brain, consciousness...
It is what it is...but go ahead and try to find out and prove it... consciousness is always the final frontier.

I don't think think is possible. 'Infinity' is by definition the size that is larger than all other possible sizes (or numbers, or whatever).
So if you have two infinities, either they are the same size and then there really is only one, or they are not the same size. In the latter case, one is larger than the other, and that other is thus by definition not infinity.
I think.
