The entire universe is widely perceived as if space itself exists on a plane, that the universe extends forever on a plane. There is no way to demonstrate the reality, it is concept only due to the biological design of man himself. ie, we don't have another set of feet on our head. But the other reason is of course the irony, that gravity itself creates a plane, a "bottom" -- to which anything upward becomes top.
My favorite exercise is to imagine it is all INNER space and the surface of the earth is in reality the surface of the INSIDE of a sphere. The reason space appears to expand is only an inversion, and in fact it is shrinking. The other exercise involves distance, and that whole erasing of distance itself, since points can't exist but on a plane.
If you really had your own cooked noodle ......... you would angle that picture 24 degrees instead of 180, and put it on its side ......... and you still wouldn't have reality or a viable model. Expecting any to imagine it, is like expecting one speaker to perform in stereo. It's not the data it's the receiver.
To comprehend the earth within its non-existent bounds, we ourselves would need to exist with no gravity and as mini-globes. So technically the moon, if alive -- has better understanding of space than any human being could ever hope to have. And each generation has been jerked along onto another path of comprehension that is yet more distant from reality. In that any set of values is allowable, now. Whatever floats your boat and makes you comfortable.
I'm not going to hate on somebody just because they can't imagine outerspace without unhinging their minds. Maybe they're the ones with the good sense to not unhinge their minds.
Even if a postulation is correct, it cannot be assumed it is right. the principles that dictate you are not a singular entity, occupying this earth--also dictate that you are never fully correct. Rule is, whatever floats your boat. You can't decide that for others, that is theirs. These are the principles of capitalism and ownership that america stands for.
And within .... oh, not more than another 200 years, YOUR concepts of the "design" of space will be overwritten and erased as complete balderdash, with new models of dimension and 360 infinitely squared. And it's possible that the process itself of discovering greater truths and greater truths ... is incorrect, in which case all definitions including those ones from eons ago, ARE correct. This is how processes WORK, and it is very likely that the greatest chore of mankind is to understand limitations, acceptance, and gratitude --- not procreation, expansion, and space.
???? my two cents. but was worth about an hour of my time, which you don't want to know what that costs.
We labor under a mutual delusion, that all updates and all newer products -- including newer products of thought -- are better. The proof is always in the pudding.
