They Lied to You: The Universe Is NOT Infinite | Brian Greene

You've been told the universe is infinite—but that's wrong. Physicist Brian Greene reveals the truth: the universe has boundaries, edges, places beyond which nothing exists. Not empty space, but the absolute end of spatial existence itself. Discover why cosmic inflation naturally produces finite bubbles, not infinite expanse. Learn how measurements of the cosmic microwave background reveal flat space that wraps around on itself, how the Big Bang created finite space that's been expanding ever since, and why the absence of topology signatures means the edge is beyond our cosmic horizon. Understand the crucial distinction between the observable universe (93 billion light-years) and the total universe (hundreds of times larger but still finite), why the multiverse is infinite but our universe is bounded, and what it means philosophically to be unique rather than infinitely replicated. Greene explains the large-scale CMB anomalies that hint at finite size, why actual physical infinities are problematic in physics, what happens at the boundary where space terminates, how eternal inflation creates infinite numbers of finite bubbles, and why we'll never reach or observe the edge due to accelerating expansion. A profound correction to one of cosmology's most widespread misconceptions.
