What if the sky isn’t space at all, but an endless ocean we’re sinking into?

r/

I’ve been thinking a lot about space lately—what it really is, and all those strange, old beliefs like the one about the Earth being carried by a turtle. I mean, why exactly a turtle? Why not something else? Was it just a clever way to make people believe it? The more specific you get, the more convincing it sounds, right? It’s crazy how the smallest detail can make us believe anything.

But then, something darker started to creep into my thoughts. Something… stranger. And I couldn’t shake it.

What if everything we think we know about the universe is wrong? What if space isn’t space at all, but something far more terrifying? What if what’s above us isn’t the vast emptiness of space, but an endless ocean?

That’s right—an ocean. And the sky? That blue? It’s just the surface. When we try to rise, to go higher, we’re actually sinking deeper into it. Every time we push upward, we’re not escaping, we’re drowning.

The deeper we go, the darker it gets, until it feels like we’re losing ourselves, like something is watching, something waiting. And just when we think we’ve hit the bottom, we find something—something we didn’t expect. A barrier. A point of no return.

And when we pass through it, thinking we’re entering some new world, a new dimension… we find ourselves coming out of the ocean. But here’s the thing—we’re still on Earth. It’s the same Earth, but it’s different. Not in a way you can explain, but in a way that makes you question everything you thought you knew.

Does that sound crazy? Or does it sound like we’re all just one step away from realizing the truth about where we really are?

    Please step away from your computer, put the crackpipe down, go outside, and touch grass.

    what i wanna know is how the moon looks decently sized in the sky but we know it is much smaller than the earth. but apparently there is a picture that astronauts took from the moon of the ENTIRE earth. that perspective makes no sense. the earth would still look massive and relatively close to you considering how big it is.

    In some sense this is true

    Space is expanding all around us

    Eventually everything will disappear

    It’s called the heat death of the universe

    Well there is still particles. Its thin gas. So you not wrong. You cannot archive 100% vacuum at least thats why scientists think. Air is like water. Oxigen can be liquid at extremely low temps. That don’t change the laws of physics. Look into the great attractor thought. Now pass me whatever you smoking
