If the universe is infinite then why are there a finite amount of galaxies?
IiSmash
It is not yet certain what size the Universe is, not even approximately - but it is probably not infinite. If you have seen an estimate about the number of galaxies in the Universe, it probably referred to the OBSERVABLE Universe, which is definitely not infinite.

What is the infinite natural resources?
There are no infinite natural resources. The universe is finite.
Did Einstein believe in a finite universe?
No. Einstein believed in a infinite universe.
Is it the universe finite or infinite?
universe is actually finite but we've not yet fond its edges, as we know that millions of planets, stars and so many kind of other bodies combined and form our galaxy, similarly millions of galaxies combined and form this huge and complex structure of our universe like unbreakable chains of molecules forming the complex structure of our body.
Could the universe be both finite and infinite?
Ask yourself does if ∞+1=∞ then does ∞/∞= either ∞ or 1
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
Who proved that there are an infinite amount of phone numbers?
It was presumably proven when it was discovered that there were infinitely many counting numbers. However, whoever it was, did not consider the mathematical possibility with practicality. The universe has a finite life. Within that our solar system is finite. People, in their turn, have finite lives. In a finite life you can only "dial" a finite number of digits. therefore, you can only call a number if it has a finite number of digits. For any finite number of digits, there are only a finite amount of phone numbers. So, having infinitely many telephone numbers is no use if you need to wait an infinite amount of time (longer than you'll live) for the first person to call you!
Why do people call fossile fuels finite?
Finite, the opposite of infinite, refers to something that has an end or will end. The universe is infinite, whereas fossil fuels will someday be exhausted, and we can't make more.
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.
What geometric shape is the universe?
Nobody knows. They do not even know if it is finite or infinite.
Is the Andromeda Galaxy Bigger Than A Universe?
That is impossible. A universe, whether infinite or finite is still vastly bigger than a galaxy.
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.
Why is the universe infnite?
The universe is NOT infinite. What is infinite is space and time. The universe is estimated to be between 13-15 billion light years across. And it's mass is certainly, and beyond doubt, finite. So this question is not valid.
