Dearest Peeps Of All Knowledge,


As a sheepy I of course am able to travel in time.


So, next Tuesday I'm planning to go back in history to when the Universe was about one metre old. When I arrive i will be a smug sheepy and very proud of myself and will kick back and chill for a bit. Say,I want to stretch and jump for joy ? will i be able to knowing that my stretched out limbs will be larger than the universe ?




If ewe could le me know please as I need to leave a not for the milkman to not deliver that day.


Some may say this will be impossible  because it might be quite warm but not to worry i will be wearing sun block.


So, can I stretch in a metre long Universe knowing that my stretch is wider  ?

Thank ewe for your kind consideration in this matter.

If I have time i will bring back a pressy as I am sure there will be a nice souvenir shop.

hugs and shmishes


mwah mwah mwah

So back in time
Is where I go
To stretch within
The Big Bang Show

If all goes well
I'll see you soon
With a gift in hand
And all before noon.

Did we ever doubt it?
I assumed that’s where you had been, welcome back

I think  you will find that you are smaller than you think and your metre - as you measure it - will be much smaller than the universe. Either that or you will be smeared out as a cloud of very elementary particles (my dear Watson)

If ewe could le me know please as I need to leave a not for the milkman to not deliver that day.

Don’t worry, you’ll be back in 3 shakes of a ewe’s tail.
If you don’t get smeared that is

I can always rely on Colin2b  to treat my kweschuns with the "gravity" they deserve lol.


Thank ewe for the warm welcome back. (smirk humble mode)


What if the rules of a metre size Universe do not apply to a sheep and thus I am able to maintain my larger 'than-a-metre-stretch' ?

You mean when stretched out like a sheepskin rug?
Oh dear, did I say that? Maybe that’s what I meant by ‘smeared’.

Nice shoes by the way, newe?

They are Praaaadaaas !

It depends on the nature of that universe. If it was a closed universe (like a hypersphere), your arms would stretch around it and you'd be able to shake your own hand. Since light would also loop around that universe, it would look as though you were surrounded by an uncountable number of copies of yourself. This was written about in Michio Kaku's book "Hyperspace".

The universe doesn't have a known size now, so couldn't have in the past either since it is impossible to stretch a finite number into an infinite one.  So hypersphere aside (Kryptid covered that), let's suppose that we consider a time when what is the visible universe today was only a meter wide. And never mind the violence going on. No scorched wool.
So I think that if you stretched your arms out, the universe would be an awful lot larger by the time you got the hooves out there. Do sheep have arms??  If the arms were already out there, they'd be immediately yanked away by their own inertia.

will i be able to knowing that my stretched out limbs will be larger than the universe ?

Yes, because the universe will grow in size far faster than you could get there, just like if you had 200 BLY arms today, but all curled up inside our 92 BLY across visible universe, you'd have no trouble stretching those arms out to their full length and still seeing them when they're all the way out.

Most probably on atomic scale your arms might break to peaces and got scattered, trapped by stars, black holes and continue spaghettification. Maybe we can put probes that will send valuable data for the universe exploration.

oooh, I like the idea of multiple me's. I luff my own company. I'm not narcissistic of course .

Thank ewe Halc. Its nice to know that the early universe is so accommodating for my impending stretch of success, 

scorched wool ?......nooooooooo !!

Thank ewe TommyJ I will be applying sun factor 50 so I'm sure I will be Ok.

All the sheep I know are made of bits of the universe. Thus ovine hoofs cannot exist outside the universe.
