The idea that a bunch of primates on a single rock, orbiting a very ordinary star at the edge of a typical galaxy would have the capacity to "understand the universe"... whatever that mean... is pretty comical to me. So many people read Douglas Adams' works and yet they seem to have missed a big point. We don't know the answer, because we don't even know the question. Even if it we did it's pure human arrogance to imagine that the questions and answers relating to a potentially infinite existence is something we could hope to address. It isn't our job to add something to the universe, just like the universe we simply exist and then we won't. That is all.
