according to stephen hawking, space does not go on forever. it is slowly expanding, and will eventually reach the point where it will slow down and contract.

now if you were to reach that point and hit it, while space was contracting, my theorey is that when the cosmic egg was to re-explode (or bang) then when the universe reached you you would become un-timefrozen (or un-spacefrozen)

thx.

What is the blackness of space? It confuses me, I mean what kind of physical thing could it be?

lol . . . it's about as physical as the inside of an empty shoe box . . . there's just no light, it's as simple as that.

no, it's just no time, no space, after the space runs out.

Actually, according to all current cosmological theories, time cannot exist without space (hence the term time/space continuum).

Ps- Steven Hawking and others are not sure what the universe will do at any given point, some think it will contract back in on itself (Omega point and Big Crunch theorists) and some think it will continue expanding forever. Some even think it will reach a critical mass point that will result in perfect equilibrium, where the space/time continuum neither expands or contracts. Personally though, I think they are all full of it and that the universe actually revolves around ME .

Stephen Hawking gave 3 theroies. It is expanding rapidly and will never slow or stop, it is expanding and will slow and collapes in on it self, and that it it's expanding just enough that it won't ever collapes, but just barely.
