Wow, thank for the very detailed reply, I am so excited to be fortunate enough that maybe in my lifetime someone will find out just a little bit more of these questions.
I wonder if the difference between near and far stops making sense when the universe reaches total heat death. Maybe it's just a senseless guess, but what if that's how a singularity is born? When a universe dies?
It feels more religious than scientific to say but given how we observe that nothing is created or destroyed but rather is changed, why shouldn't it apply to a Universe?
I really like the way the videogame Outer Wilds tackles this question, using scientific knowledge as a basis to pose a more philosophical question about the life and death of a universe
There is also a theory that states that black holes, since they are singularities - are infact their own universe. It's also not entirely unrealistic to apply that to our universe being in a black hole itself.
We know the observable universe has an age. In fact, we know there's a limit to what we can see. We can locate galaxies 32 billion light-years away, but the redshift of its spectra confirms it is still about as old as the universe. Theoretically, just like an object falling in a black hole stretches forever, our expanding universe is the exact same phenomenon. There exist no spacetime paths that allow anything to escape our universe.
Black holes are not holes, they are hyperbolic non-euclidean space? Possibly
