OK, gonna go back to my JW years for this one.
The idea is that the universe is so vast for 2 possible (and very likely both) reasons....
First, in the original perfect world, man would live forever, giving him enough time to eventually develop the technology needed to reach far into space.
Second, there would be more life created on other worlds throughout the universe. But this creative process was put on hold till the debacle of Satan, Adam and Eve right on earth was sorted out first.
The idea here being that earth would set a 'legal precedent' for any other future life created: Rebel and things go south. Listen to Jehovah and all goes well.
