New Theory Claims Universe Has Finite Limits
A paper presented to the American Astronomical Society and AAAS reports that light may travel in a closed universe, implying finite cosmic space. Dr Walter S Adams of Mt Wilson Observatory described observations from a 100 inch telescope of a distant spiral nebula near the Milky Way poles moving away at about 2590 miles per second, a record velocity among cosmical objects. The implications tie to Einstein relativity as the theory develops.
