Trying to wrap my mind around the vast distances involved in these clouds and comets is boggling. And then I have to process the fact that our Solar System, including its Oort Cloud, is only an infinitesimal thing among billions of such systems in the vastness of the Milky Way Galaxy. And then I remember that our galaxy is only one of billions of galaxies.

And then I Thank God for the magnificent wonders of His Creation, our Universe.

And then I get another cup of coffee.

I am with you on wrapping the mind around the vast distances in space, and the awe of it all as G-d’s creation. Yes, it does boggle the mind and helps make us feel so humble, that tiny us on our little spec are witnesses to it all.

Our whole universe could possibly be a molecule in a drop of water that is now part of a cup of coffee that somewhere is being drank...And with that, there could be a molecule in that cup of coffee that you are drinking that is another universe such as ours that contains a galaxy that has a solar system just like ours with a planet where another person is drinking a cup of coffee that..........

And because things tend to repeat in cycle and protocols as you point out. I would venture to say that there are more than one universe. I think there may be as many as there are Galaxies. We tend to hold ourselves to a limited perspective.

Does God have the power to create many more than just one? Is it infinite rather than finite? I think so, and I think to limit the true scope of his ability as finite is a mistake. Something out there is spitting out universes like spores from a fungi. :)
