Discovered today that space is expanding faster than the speed of light.
Think about that. Take a few days to mull over the implications. Then think how poxy and insignificant you are

£12 difference changing the car insurance over from the Swift Sport to the new Sp-azda. Well pleased with that and
have no additional fee to transfer my wifes plate to it either.

Yes, everyone bangs on about it being impossible to travel faster than the speed of light and yet the fabric of space-time can manage it 
Star Trek style warp bubbles might actually turn out to be a thing. Not for a while though. |
As far as my (limited) knowledge goes, it is still impossible for anything to travel faster than the speed of light through space.

Ah but the trick is you don't move the space moves. |
But you couldn't use that for faster-than-light travel to any point other than where you are relative to other objects. So in effect, you don't actually go anywhere, don't leave your local space, except within the confines of light speed.
What it does mean is that beyond a certain point in space/time, we have absolutely no access to, never will have, not with the fastest possible means of transport or communication, not given all eternity, planet-sized telescopes, whatever. So there is a finite limit to our potential knowledge, no matter what advances we make. Knowledge is finite! (I love getting rid of infinity ).
I could be wrong

There are no rules against how close you can get. Your mass would become very large, but time also moves differently. You could travel great distances in your life time if you got very close to light speed (for example travelling to Alpha Centuri, 4 light years away in just a few weeks). It's just that home on Earth 4 years would have gone by.
There is something called quantum entanglement (which I don't really understand) where particles are paired, and once one shows its true colours the other does the opposite. This 'information' travels instantaneously which is a bit weird. |
I'm beginning to get the impression that has something to do with the Higgs boson, which gives mass to objects/particles. I heard it described as everywhere in space we go, it's like we are travelling through a swimming pool of molasses, the Higgs being present everywhere. Something like the faster you go, the more you interact with the Higgs, or the more Higgs you interact with.
Quantum entanglement has no relevance to us if we're talking beyond that point which light isn't fast enough to reach, or from which light isn't fast enough to ever reach us, since the space it was 'generated' in is moving away from us faster than the light can get here. It's like talking about infinity - effectively meaningless.
I could be wrong
Yes, wait a minute! What if two particles were entangled before the two points of space reached more than light speed differential?
But if not, we can never know if one of the entangled pair is behaving in a linked manner to the other across this 'boundary'.
I could be wrong

...judging by the apparent holes in the theory, and that's just according to that article 
The "trillion year effect", as I heard it described - I can claim what I like in such theories, as there'll be no one around to say I was wrong

Black holes cannot contain entire universes, as they have measurable mass of too small an order.
Also, as an outside observer, nothing can be seen to cross the event horizon of a black hole, as space/time is distorted so it just looks like things slow down more and more as they approach.
In other words, I can't answer that, so I'll just digress

Okay it rained more or less all day, however I was riding my black
Inazuma 250, it's the first time I've taken her out in all day rain and she
handled so well. Seems like the Inazuma is a perfect all rounder for me,
thankfully I have 2 of them. Gears well oiled,

I think I am wrong here. I haven't yet got my head around why I might be wrong, and there is some argument, and points still to be addressed.
But generally speaking, science oils my gears
