FAQs

What is the universe question and answer? ›

The number 42 is, in The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy by Douglas Adams, the "Answer to the Ultimate Question of Life, the Universe, and Everything", calculated by an enormous supercomputer named Deep Thought over a period of 7.5 million years. Unfortunately, no one knows what the question is.

What is the question of the universe and everything? ›

"Life, the universe, and everything" is a common name for the off-topic section of an Internet forum, and the phrase is invoked in similar ways to mean "anything at all".

What is our place in the universe? What is consciousness? Does the world really exist?

What goes beyond the universe? ›

Outside the bounds of our universe may lie a "super" universe. Space outside space that extends infinitely into what our little bubble of a universe may expand into forever. Lying hundreds of billions of light years from us could be other island universes much like our own.

What is the unanswered question of the universe? ›

"Will the Universe end?" is one of the biggest, and perhaps most important, questions about the Universe. Whether the Universe will exist forever or in some way 'end' depends on its rate of expansion, the average density of matter, and the fractions of matter, dark matter and dark energy it contains.

What is the ultimate answer to the universe? ›

The number 42 is especially significant to fans of science fiction novelist Douglas Adams' “The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy,” because that number is the answer given by a supercomputer to “the Ultimate Question of Life, the Universe, and Everything.”

Who is the creator of the universe? ›

The Hindus consider Lord Brahma as the Creator of the Universe. Along with Lord Vishnu and Lord Shiva, he forms the Holy Trinity. As creation is the work of the mind and the intellect, Lord Brahma symbolises the Universal Mind. From the standpoint of an individual, he symbolises one's own mind and intellect.

Did God create the universe? ›

According to the Book of Genesis, God created the universe - and all the heavenly bodies, the sun, the moon, and the stars - in six days. But according to contemporary cosmologists the universe began with a great explosion known as the Big Bang, after which the stars and galaxies slowly formed over billions of years.

What existed before the universe? ›

The initial singularity is a singularity predicted by some models of the Big Bang theory to have existed before the Big Bang. The instant immediately following the initial singularity is part of the Planck epoch, the earliest period of time in the history of our universe.

How do you ask the universe a question and get an answer? ›

Show action and do research around it, as if you are proving your capability to a trusted adviser. Then, speak clearly and directly to the universe: “I am asking for guidance about _____ because it will help me _____.” It helps if you write it down, and revisit your intention daily.
