I was thinking about the universe and stuff and got thinking, fairly deeply.
You may or may not have heard of these places where you can buy distant stars and name them yourself. However these stars are suns in solar sytems far far away and there could well be life in plants orbitting these suns. Now if, as we are often told, there is life 'out there' then there could surely be another planet with another scheme like this and our sun may well have already been sold off for a few quid.
I am uncomfortable with this for a number of reasons. Firstly I don't like the idea of some far away alien guy owning the large firely ball of gas that is keeping us all alive right now. Secondly I don't think it is right to purchase something that cannot be owned. A planet can not be bought unless there is a current owner. There is no current owner of Earth, God you may argue is but I would disagree, and there cannot be owners of flaming balls of burning gas and rock. It is absurd to even try to sell something like that.
Anyway, whilst thinging about the universe I though about where the universe ends. We are told the universe is ever-expanding and can be proved by looking at red shift of stars and suchlike. However what is the universe expanding into? There must be something outside of the universe that the universe expands over, there cannot be just nothingness and suddenly becomes something. Nothingness doesn't exist. There are several conclusions I came to; that we are just a tiny part of a somewhat larger existance in another world or universe and our universe is just a part of it, and that universe is part of a larger universe and so on, like those russian dolls that all fit inside of each other. Another possibility I thought of was that everything just ends, like when you scroll right to the end of the map on Roller Coaster Tycoon. Perhaps nothingness does exist and it just cannot be proven.
At this point I felt really scared and insignificant on the large scale of things. So what do you think about 'everything' ?

Just wondering because of the spelling mistakes and rather “out there” subject.
