Has anyone here heard anything about the universe being funnel shaped instead of football shaped?

Have are look at this [link= http://www.newscientist.com/article.ns?id=dn4879 ]link[/link] if you have not heard of this before.

Hi narmi,

There are certianly lots of food for thought, there. I personally think that man hasn't yet scratched the surface of what the Universe actually is.

Love,
Patsy.

What I don't understand is how or why they think the rocket ship will end up coming back on itself if it gets to the wide opening of this funnel! Why do they think that will happen?

Even more strange is the other end. They are saying that if you can go far enough on the narrow end which is infinitly long, you end up looking at the back of your head!!!

That is some weird stuff don't you think?

Sure is weird but IMO I don't know why there is a need to come up with theories for the shape of the universe. I personally consider it to be infinate in all directions and therefore without shape.
