Is there something more than we all know or imagine or describe which is yet to be discovered ?

It was April 19th when I had given a glimpse of sneak peek into my next blog in previous post "Oh Diamond! Diamond! Thou little knowest the mischief thou hast done". This instant, the clock on my system reads 12th of June 2009.What is the elapsed time in-between? Approximately 53 days!, which accounts to 1272 hrs, which can be described as a massive 76320 minutes, going one step further would make it humongous 4579200 secs..we can go on and on and on ..billionths of a second would read an astronomical 4579200000000000 nanosecs.... Where are we heading ? how long can we logically drill this down into further precession so that our senses can make some sense out of it ? Isn't it funny,I am dividing a quantity and the best word I came up was "Astronomical".Well do I see a universe at both ends here.... h-uh!!.

Questions like,How big is our universe? Does it end anywhere ? if it does, what is beyond it?..Is our universe a small entity on some other relatively huge universe where the size of our universe is inconsequential when it comes to measurement? Hopping to the other end of spectrum, how small can anything be?.. pico's and femto's? or there is something so small, say a particle of size "X,decimal followed by 1000's of zeros and a unity" to which an atom (that we humans think is considerably small) is as big as our universe? Could there be a life out there?I mean like some small universe there, which we may never ever discover? these question have fathomed me right from my childhood and I don't expect it to be answered convincingly any time soon.

As humans we may never get an answer to these questions,no matter how hard we try,no matter how determined we are, but we will keep looking for these answers which sets us apart from rest. These unanswered questions fractionally reduces the greatness of our human evolution as a supreme being to have walked and ruled the plant Earth albeit without knowing the limits of our own spatial confines....this makes me believe that "Yes,there is something more than we all know or imagine or describe which is yet to be discovered! not only in everytihng around us,but also in each one of us."
