It's big. Like, really big. Also, there's different sizes of infinity.

lol. By definition infinity can't have different sizes. It's an absolute.

Every number is an infinite string and thus its own infinity. As long as a number is capable of being bigger than another number than an infinity can be bigger than another infinity.

Infinity isn't a number.

That still doesn't refute that every number is its own infinity and thus infinities can be larger than one another.

cardboard is absolutely right, their are different sizes of infinity. this is when being applied to specific mathematics, whereas infinity is defined in other sciences with somewhat different meanings.

It occurs quite often in chemistry when ever a quantity is defined to be a certain amount, such as 1 inch being 2.54 cm.

But we're talking "reality". In terms of space there's no such thing as a one infinity being bigger than the other.
