I can't fathom it and it's scary. Not just in regards of time, which I suppose you can rationalize as a fake concept measured by the transient nature of all things, but what about space? What the fuck does it mean that space is infinite? On the other hand, how can it end? What, suddenly after 1 gazillion billion light years there's a barrier with a sign "that's it, space ends here". What's beyond, nothing? What's nothing? You know....man...?
