Resumen de Desperately seeking...: Infinity
Webb indicates that even if someone else took over, a finite universe would eventually run out of information to encode them with. Such practical considerations mean physicists generally see infinity as something to be avoided--although that's often easier said than done. The big bang theory, for instance, suggests the universe began as a "singularity" of infinite density and temperature, but the mathematical description breaks down when people pack too much gravity in too small a space. A small minority of physicists and mathematicians eschews infinity completely, claiming it has no place in a finite universe.
