No. Our sun is beaming energy to Earth.

Quote:2. If this is true could this be evidence that the universe is infinite (equilibrium = infinity)?
No. Infinity has nothing to do with equilibirum.

Quote:3. Is this guy's science correct?
Yes.

Quote:4. Could the universe be explained as an accumulation of unlikely increases in order, which happen because they've had infinite time to do so? I.e. monkeys on typewriters
First off, the universe started out ordered and got more complex and disordered. Second, there are other physical laws that create pockets of order. I don't think there is anything "unlikely" about it.
