Id like to see how everyone here would describe the universe - your personal view of it.
But instead of giant essays, try to restrict it to a sentence with a maximum of 15 words.

*and perhaps in the end we can reach an agreement as to what is the best description

I see the Universe as a trajectory from a pre-existence to some post-existence similar to the trajectory of a vase as it falls off a table and crashes to the floor. Sorry, can't get it down to 15. You did say 'try'.:wink:
