Is the universe infinate?

Scientists currently believe that no, the universe is not infinite. It is of a finite size however, this finite size is constantly expanding but not expanding AWAY from anything, just expanding


What is the theory for finite energy?

The energy of the universe is finite. It can neither be created nor destroyed. It can only change form. It is related to the concept of conservation of mass by Einstein's famous formula E=mc2 - in other words, the combined mass and energy of the universe is constant.


Did Albert Einstein believe in God?

Einstein was essentially a Deist. He believed in a supreme intelligence of design behind the Universe, and on a question of subatomic physics, he once responded that "God does not play dice with the universe" (though he was later proven wrong in that regard). On the "personal God" level, however, he was a nonbeliever.


What is another term for universe?

that portion of the universe that we can see in principle, given the finite age of the universe


What is the static university theory and what did Einstein believe that that was impossible?

The static UNIVERSE model (not a theory) holds that our Universe has been in gravitational balance for all eternity. If general relativity correctly described gravitational interaction of matter -- and Einstein DEFINITELY believed in his model -- then the Universe would have to collapse into a singularity, a fact Einstein recognized almost immediately. He thus made this collapse disappear with a wave of his hand, saying the Universe contained a force (he called it the Cosmological Constant) that perfectly balanced against a collapse by gravity. Jesuit priest George LeMaitre showed that our Universe did not need Einstein's CC if it were expanding -- an idea Einstein ridiculed. When Edwin Hubble showed that our Universe IS, indeed, expanding; Einstein admitted his CC was his "greatest blunder."


Who discorvered the big bang theory?

The first scientific paper on an expanding Universe with a finite age was done by Jesuit priest Georges LeMaitre. Einstein later commented on his idea: "Your math is correct, but your physics is abominable." Edwin Hubble soon showed that LeMaitre was right and Einstein was wrong.


If the universe is finite what is outside it?

The name Universe refers to all that there is in existence, therefore nothing can be outside it.


What did Einstein think about the universe?

he didn't


Is there a finite number of smells?

The number of smells is extremely large and probably incalculable. There is a finite amount of matter in the universe, thus a finite amount of olfactory sensations.


How do scientists know that the universe is infinite?

They don't.There is no certainty that the universe is finite or infinite, and indeed it may be impossible to tell. The edge of the observable universe is around 46 billion lightyears away; beyond that, it might end after a metre or it might truly go on forever. Answer2:Scintists as a community don't know. The Universe is finite with a radius around 158 Tera tera meters or 16 Billion light years away. The Universe is finite and has finite power P=3645E49 watts.


What did Albert Einstein want to know about?

Einstein wanted to know about how the universe works.


How large did Einstein calculate the universe to be?

Einstein never made any such calculation. Even today the total size of our Universe is speculative at best. Einstein speculated it was infinite in both size and age.
