Space-Time & Strings: Current Thinking?

[QUOTE="ChrisPNZ, post: 5491464, member: 595441"] I'm not a physicist so forgive me if this is a bad/stupid question, but i was just wondering what the current thinking was on a couple of things. (From what I understand space-time is a bit like a matrix which spreads out over the universe - and also gives us gravity etc?) 1. Does space time exist outside of the universe or does it get created with the outer part of the expanding universe entering the nothing? (or does it exist outside of the universe) - or is it being stretched out as the universe expands. 2. What about strings, are they being created as the universe expands, or are they spreading further apart with , or do they exist outside of the universe? 3. Just a hypothetical question - if the Earth was transported outside of the universe would there be no gravity because there would be no space-time to bend around it? :) [/QUOTE]
