What does this question really mean? To fully understand the question of an infinite universe, one must have an understanding of infinity as a mathematical construct. This talk will describe the mathematics of infinity and how this applies to an infinite universe. If there’s clear weather we’ll enjoy telescopic views of the Orion Nebula and other stellar delights on the new Taylor Observatory Star Deck.
