Is there anything out there beyond the Universe?

We are a tiny dot in this Universe , it's mind blowing to think about it all. But sad, that we get such a short time on Earth.🙁 Do you believe this Universe is the only entity of planets, stars, and life itself?🌌

The Universe is everything that we currently know about.
Is there another Universe? We will never know.
I am sure there is life out there.
Though we as a species will never come into contact with whatever it is.
Look at the Voyager Space crafts, travelling for 48 years now.
It took 35 years to leave the solar system.
It will never leave the Milky Way because the technology on board will not allow it to reach a high enough velocity. (Not powerful enough to pull itself out of the grip of the gravity of the Milky Way)
In 500 million years Voyager will have completed one circuit of the Milky Way.
Remembering it will never leave the Milky Way.
Other life out there?
Most certainly, not ours to ever encounter.
Purely my opinion.

We have no idea about the vastness of space. The universe is said to be expanding but into what? We cannot fathom the infinite. My pea brain cannot fathom the nothingness the big bang supposedly began with.
It's all....

@Gibbon Yes, its like we probably cannot really use our limited brains and thoughts to conceptualize something other than this Universe. I can't even begin to wrap my head around it!!🫨

@Coralmist Just looking to the heavens makes us appear insignificant.

@Gibbon that's the problem with big bang theory (or big dud theory as I call it) that can't be rectified. any explosion/expansion requires space to expand in to, and the passage of time to occur to begin with, so obliviously; space, time, and matter just didn't blink into existence at the same time... i.e. it would require some external force acting on it (heat/friction, gravity, collision, etc.)

and I seriously doubt there's some black impermeable wall/shell out there where existence ends...

I think that though there may be life on other planets it may be too far away for us or them to reach each other. Also consider the odds that they will be at a similar level of technology or evolution at this exact time. There could be hundreds of worlds at renaissance level not that they have the technology to decode radio signals yet.

@NativePortlander1970 The first video is fascinating showing how small our planet is in this mere galaxy alone. Thank you ✨

Oh heck no! It is endless out there.
