Hence, "nothing" is a physical impossibility; as such, the Cosmos is eternal, without beginning or end, and without a center or an edge.
Scientists say there is an explanation for everything, even if we haven't found it yet. Mathematics is a mental construct.
Scientists don't believe the cosmos is eternal or without beginning, most of them anyways.
