No center of the Universe:
I get the idea that there isn't a center in the sense of an origin point from where it all expanded(If I'm not mistaken, it all expands in all directions, almost as if you were zooming in more and more on a point with everything within).
But if the elements are finite and if they're arranged in a 3d configuration, there has to be a center position. Only way you're getting out of that is with some weird thing like torus/videogame cube scenario(go up come through the bottom, same with left and right, etc.). If not there has to be a center position, even if we don't know it, and even if it's simply another average chunk of space.
I also have some issues with the idea that there is nothing outside the universe, as in no border/limit at the edge of the finite number of composing elements. how is that possible? There either has to be a void beyond the finite elemets, or at least a torus/videogame esque thing must occur.
Dark Matter:
Ok, so stars can't be at the edge of the galaxy cause there ain't enough mass to keep them from flying apart. So we just throw some massive invisible thingies at the borders and presto. What causes something that's supposed to interact only through gravity to cluster in a halo around the galaxy(aka, why is it concentrated in one region at all, why not dispersed all over?)?
Black holes and information:
Recently Stephen gave some ideas about how information is preserved despite h.radiation, I missed them, how exactly is information preserved?
Black Hole question #2:
Could one engineer a matter collapse around a ship(aka, hollow spherical mass surrounding the ship), such that the ship wasn't affected by the collapse and was right in the singularity? (iirc, objects within a hollow sphere can have the external gravitational force on them cancelling out. )
Big Bang:
From, what I've heard Mr. Tipler(from physics of immortality), in order to re-do the bang during a crunch, one 'd have to collapse everything in an intelligent and precise fashion. Intelligence surviving as things compressed infinitely.
What are the reasons for this need to precisely coordinate the collapse, what's the math involved? What kind of compression is this, as far as we know, molecular machinery hits the limits of miniaturization, will the compression be relative to something(that is not felt by the compressed) else leaving matter unscathed, if not are there really any known means of surviving compression that'd destroy molecular machinery?
