To infinity and its negative - a demonstration of the nature of space in the universe


This graph is analogical to movement in the universe. It is in fact the graph of the reciprocal of the hyperbolic tan function. What I wanted to demonstrate was the seemingly impossible nature of the graph switching from a value of infinity to negative infinity across the line x=0. I think that when we do discover the exact nature of space in the universe it will be dependent on a curved model in so that the three dimensional plane of space will fold back in on itself, metaphorically speaking, like a sphere so that anyone attempting to reach the edge of the universe will find it is in fact impossible.
