Here is something I wonder about:
If the big bang has created spherical expansion, with all resulting galaxies residing on the suface of the sphere, does celestial observation ever involve looking "across" the vast (assumed) empty middle to the other side of the sphere? Does anyone think light might travel around the periphery rather than straight through it? Is there a chance all observed galaxies are only those on the surface all around us, and much further away, on the other side of the expanding sphere, are galaxies we can never see?
