An experiment/query of the end of the universe?
As part of my school work, we need to research a space topic. I have chosen to research the question, “whats outside the universe?”.
My science teacher has told me that, to achieve a high standard (I won’t go into much detail as to how this system works), but I need to conduct an experiment.
But I can’t see how I can conduct a experiment, because the question I am answering is only a theory. I can research other possibilities, but as far as conducting an experiment, I am out of ideas.
So if anyone has any ideas, could you please let me know – any help would be appreciated.
Well, I don’ t want to do too much of your work for you but here is an idea.
Show how he universe is expanding by showing he rate of expansion. The Hubble constant describes the universe’s rate of expansion.
After you do that, do an experiment showing what might happen if here was something on the other side of our universe.
This could actually be very fun. 
Good Luck

Linteris, Payload Specialist The primary payload, the pressurized Microgravity Science Laboratory-1 (MSL-1) housed in Columbia’s cargo bay, was being flown for the first time and contained a plethora of life science and materials experiments. Fuel cell failure caused the mission to be cut short. Opportunity for an additional Shuttle flight in 1997 was made possible by the postponement of an International Space Station construction flight initially scheduled for late 1997. The STS-83 re-flight was originally designated STS-83R, but was redesignated STS-94. |

Ride became first American woman to fly in space. Two communications satellites deployed, ANIK C-2 for TELESAT Canada and PALAPA-B1 for Indonesia, both attached to Payload Assist Module-D (PAM-D) motors. Seven Get Away Special canisters in cargo bay held variety of experiments including ones studying effects of space on social behavior of ant colony in zero gravity. Ten experiments mounted on Shuttle Pallet Satellite (SPAS-01) performed research in forming metal alloys in microgravity and use of remote sensing scanner. Orbiter’s small control rockets fired while SPAS-01 held by remote manipulator system to test movement on extended arm. Experiments to investigate space sickness carried out. Other payloads: Office of Space and Terrestrial Applications-2 (OSTA-2); Continuous Flow Electrophoresis System (CFES); Monodisperse Latex Reactor (MLR); and one Shuttle Student Involvement (SSIP) experiment. Sally Ride was born on May 26, 1951 in Los Angeles, California. As a young girl, she wanted to become a professional tennis player and, at one time, was a ranked player on the junior tennis circuit. She attended Stanford University where she earned four degrees: Bachelor of Arts in English, Bachelor of Science in Physics, Masters in Physics and a Ph.D. in Physics. Dr. Ride applied to the astronaut program after reading an ad in a newspaper. More than 8,000 men and women applied to the space program that year. Of the 35 individuals accepted, six were women. One was Sally Ride. She was accepted into the astronaut corps in 1978 and completed her training as a mission specialist in 1979. On June 18,1983 she became the first American woman to orbit Earth when she flew aboard Space Shuttle Challenger. Her second flight was also aboard Challenger in 1984. Dr. Ride was a member of the team chosen to investigate the explosion of Challenger in 1986. She left the astronaut corps in 1987. |

A Ball, A Dog, and A Monkey $14.95 A Ball, A Dog, and A Monkey A Ball, a Dog, and a Monkey tells the remarkable story of America’s first efforts to succeed in space, a time of exploding rockets, national space mania, Florida boomtowns, and interservice rivalries so fierce that President Dwight Eisenhower had to referee them.A Ball, A Dog, and A Monkey covers roughly the first year of the Space Age, from the launch of Sputnik in October 1957 through Project SCORE, which placed an entire Atlas booster in orbit with a small communications payload, including a tape-recorded message from President Eisenhower, just before Christmas 1958. The book examines both the Soviet and American programs, but places far more emphasis on the latter, from the political machinations in Washington to the technical difficulties of launching satellites to the effects the massive influx of space and missile workers had on the once-sleepy communities around Cape Canaveral. (The title itself refers to Sputnik, Laika, and a squirrel monkey named Gordo that the US launched on a suborbital spaceflight in late 1958.)The book does serve as a reminder that the history of that era is about not just about satellites and rockets, but also the people who created them or were touched by them in some way. With a story as well known as the opening of the Space Race, and one with few new revelations and insights, A Ball, A Dog, and A Monkey focuses primarily on stories from some of the people (primarily American) involved in that first year of the Space Age. Some of them are famous: Eisenhower, Wernher von Braun, and James Van Allen, the Iowa physicist whose experiments were flown on Explorer 1. Others are more obscure, yet still interesting. “A SCIENCE BOOK OF 2007″ – NPR’S SCIENCE FRIDAY “A FUN, FAST READ…AMAZING WE HAD TO WAIT ‘TIL THE 50th ANNIVERSARY OF THAT YEAR’S TUMULTUOUS EVENTS TO GET THE POPULAR HISTORY THEY DESERVED” – Angela Gunn USATODAY.COM Paperback 320 Pages Simon & Schuster, September 2008 |

Getting Off the Planet: Training Astronauts $18.95 Getting off the Planet is the story of how a group of dedicated scientists, working with some of the nation’s finest pilots, prepared for space flight by meticulous research and patient, relentless testing. The book provides a piece of space history largely missing until now. Earlier explorers, whatever the hazards, could count on having Earth’s amenities: food, drinking water, breathing air and gravity.Space explorers had to take their life-support equipment with them. They also had to understand and solve the problems of such a mysterious, dangerous place before anyone had ever visited the space environment. For the first time ever, Dr. Randall M. Chambers , space pioneer who designed and conducted many of the earliest astronaut research and training programs, takes the reader behind the scenes and describes significant space flight preparations.Co-author is Mary Jane Chambers , the scientist’s wife, who has had a long career as a journalist. When they met as students at Indiana University in 1949, Mary Jane was eyeing a career as a foreign correspondent. Instead, she soon found herself a front row seat at a drama about a different kind of foreign place: outer space.Mrs. chambers has doggedly insisted that Getting off the Planet be enjoyable, interesting reading for space fans in all stages of scientific knowledge. She has banished the scientist’s usual props: formulas and footnotes and has instead “translated” science projects into understandable language.Together, the authors have also recollected some humorous anecdotes which inevitably occurred during research and training projects. The book is richly illustrated with pictures of astronauts, test pilots, scientists and engineering technologists in experimental projects rarely seen before. Features / Reviews: Table of Contents Chapter 1: From the Beginning Chapter 2: Getting Started Chapter 3: Some Glimpses into Early Space Research Projects Chapter 4: The Biosatellite Pioneers Chapter 5: Astronaut Selection and Training?with Stress, Distress, Zeal and Determination Chapter 6: Acceleration Forces and Stresses: Coping with Gravity Chapter 7: Early Mars Experiments Chapter 8: Microgravity and Weightless Simulations Chapter 9: Atmospheric Pressure Factors Chapter 10: More Glimpses into Early Space Research Projects Chapter 11: All Dressed Up for Space Exploration Chapter 12: So Much for Creature Comforts Chapter 13: Into Space with Mercury, Gemini and Apollo Chapter 14: Exploring the Moon and Returning to Earth Chapter 15: The Shuttle Programs: New Spacecraft, New Missions Chapter 16: Preparing for Sky Lab and Other Space Stations Chapter 17: Meeting the Public Chapter 18: Serendipities Galore!
