What Is The Reference Point For Our Universe?
Think of your home. If someone was to ask you where is your home, you would give landmarks, street number and other details to point out the location of your home. Same thing applies to your state, your country. Where is the USA? You will answer- north of Mexico and south of Canada. Are you getting the drift of my discussion? We have reference points for all locations on the earth. Similarly we have reference points of stars in the universe. When we think of the sun as stationary with reference to space, we can locate other stars. Sun is the reference point for locating then. But what about reference point of the universe itself?
