If I understand the big bang theory correctly our whole universe was in a hot dense state. And then suddenly, rapid expansion happened where everything expanded outwards presumably from the singularity. We know for a fact that the universe is expaning and has been expanding since it began. So, theoretically if we go backwards in time things were closer together. The more further back we go, the more closer together things were. We should eventually reach a point where everything was one, or where everything was none (depending on how you look at it). This point should be the center of the universe since everything expanded from it. But after doing a bit of research I have discovered that there is no center to the universe. Please explain to me how this is possible.
Thank you!

One of the big problems with astrophysics (and quantum mechanics) communication is that we use analogous terms for concepts that are otherwise ungraspable outside the realm of mathematics. Without understanding reference frames, hell even with, a lot of it is just very, very confusing. We fall back to the math a lot lol.
