Well we can go if you like, but we’ll have to go quickly.
Well, in review: you said it would be nice to see the present at these locations. You WILL see the present at these locations. You will for instance see the PRESENT at a body six trillion miles or so away from you, (one light year) in approximately one year. It is indeed possible to see the present here FROM these locations; we simply need to get there quickly, i.e. faster than the speed of light. That was my attempt at a joke.
Well I am no expert on these matters but as far as going to the future is concerned, I don’t want to see the many things that will break my heart and possibly my will to live.
Somebody’s been taking too much LSD.
Some of my fondest memories are of family outings to globular cluster 576T.
“It is meaningless fantasy, a total waste of time.”
And it’s a total waste of taxpayer money in a time when we are worse than broke. The government outlaws the use of tax money to support Christian religion in any way, but cheerfully supports billions of dollars of spending on the humanist delusions of scientists.
But as Mr. Llewellyn noted in the New York Review of Books all those years ago, they "cannot allow a Divine foot in the door." Therefore, these 'scientists' are compelled by their own denial of God to make up stories about how the Universe can exist without Him. Futile, and sad.
Modern cosmology has become a religion. It requires belief in things that are not verifiable. Deviance from the official dogmas means expulsion. Adherents continue to believe in spite of valid rational proofs that they are wrong.
In fact, when we use powerful telescopes we see gazillions of galaxies and other features ALL OVER THE PLACE ~ and there's absolutely no way that we can prove or disprove that any of them are not also their own complete galaxy with subtly different physical laws.
It might well be useful to determine which ones are "different" and which ones aren't ~ particularly if we wee to find ourselves drifting close to one. There's a ginormous blackhole only 51 lightyears away ~ I'd really like to know if that's one of ours or someone else's ~ and pretty soon too!
Is there any observational evidence???? I thought the Scientific Method started with
1. Unexplained fact or phenomenon.
2. Fact gathering ........
Don’t fall into the trap of intellectual masturbation.

There are mysteries beyond mysteries.
For Christians, I don’t believe that it’s possible to read the Bible and come to a conclusion that God could have created more than one....
I would like to add that if there is any doubt, just listen to some of Beethoven's best works by a great symphony. Pure randomness could not have been into play.
Here’s my theory:
Our universe was supposedly started by a big bang.
There are potentially unlimited other universes out there...they may have started up with their own bang.
More than one bang = gang bang.
You heard it here first.
Man do I ever agree. The Hubble may be the one best scientific investment in history.
That settles it.
I have now completely abandoned my search for a missing skate key that I lost in 1959.
yes, it is always fun to wonder. to set the record straight ... I neither am an expert. Thank You, for the conversation.
