Is the universe infinite, or is it finite?
If the universe is infinite, why is the sky dark?
Interesting question. I did (only partially) address this question in a comment at the bottom of one of my posts on Giordano Bruno.

Joyful reading.
I like your posts John. They always get us thinking. For me, the terms infinite and finite only exist as ideas. In this physical universe, instead of infinite, I prefer the term interminable.
Infinite is not a specific measure but an instruction - keep going, or etcetera.
infinite can't keep going, it's infinite, it's already there.
Infinity per-se is beyond comprehension. From any/all individual perspectives, it’s “keep going”.
Yes, but ... it can't keep going in the same universe, twice.
