You’re dying. In your last moment of life, you’re granted the knowledge of one thing. Simply ask one specific question and you’ll be given full knowledge of it.

It’s interesting what peoples responses are. Kate would want to know if her family will be alright. Now granted you couldn’t possibly know for sure what you would want to know until that moment occurs.

I think I’d like to know about the edge of outer space. The commonly held assumption by most in the scientific community is that the space is infinite and the universe is constantly expanding. We can measure the expansion of the universe, but we cannot prove that space is infinite. Perhaps space has an edge, but what is it. When you get to the edge do you find absolute nothingness? Now I don’t mean there is nothing beyond the edge. Most of space is nothing. I mean beyond the edge, there is nothing. Perhaps if you go beyond the edge, you become nothing. Or maybe if you go far enough up, you come out at the bottom? I call that the “Asteroids” theory. If you’ve ever played the classic Asteroids arcade game, you know what I mean.

The possibilities are endless and mankind will probably never answer that question. If there is no edge, we could never prove it. If there is an edge, it is further than all the stars visible through our telescopes. Unless we can travel faster than light, we won’t go beyond those stars until a far off era.
