'Infinitely large' isn't a prerequisite to the paradox. Rather, it's an infinite number of stars.
Or, more precisely, an infinite number of stars spread out rather uniformly.
- Kranar 5y agoIt's not possible to have an infinite number of stars in a finite region. However, you could have a finite number of stars that form a cover over some point.
- lurquer 5y agoI agree. I was just pointing out that the thread keeps referring to ‘infinitely large’ universe. Perhaps it’s just shorthand for ‘infinite number of stars’. No big deal. Obviously, if you had 10 stars in an infinitely large universe, there is no ‘paradox.’
