I suppose that makes sense now. Of course, the speed through space is limited to the speed of light, but the speed of space expansion doesn't technically need a limit.
My question, however, is what is meant by an "infinite" universe. It was my understanding that space/time was concentrated into a singularity prior to the Big Bang, however you say something different. So if this is true, the "infinite" size is the actual space/time that the universe "sits" upon, not the universe itself.
Or is this just a confusion of the terms "universe" and "observable universe"? In other words, the entire universe is the infinite space/time and all the matter upon it, whilst the observable universe is just the matter?
