I recall at some time in my past hearing an argument that if the universe is of infinite extent then the night sky should be completely filled with starlight and have no areas where there is no visible light. Of course this argument does not account for the possibility of light emitting objects that exist but are outside of our light cone.
But I am left wondering if a night view in the earliest possible universe in which we might have existed would have looked much denser than our contemporary star field. Was there ever a time when such a view could have existed for us?
