Reply to comment by ppyrosis2 in ELI5: How is every point the the universe the centre of the universe? by Head-Plankton-7799
Hi /u/ppyrosis2!
It is a common misconception that the universe expanded from a single point in the moments after the Big Bang. If the universe is infinite, it has always been infinite; and if the universe is finite, it is closed. Either way, the universe did not start in a single point in the moment of the Big Bang, but rather the entire universe expanded at once.
