What is the number beyond infinity?

July 5, 2020 by Karen Hill

In our number system, nothing exists beyond infinity. Infinity doesn’t really exist.

It is simply a concept, not a number or a thing in itself.

If there’s anything “beyond” infinity as we understand it, it’s part of infinity.

So, the answer is that if there’s anything beyond infinity, it’s just more infinity. Make sense?
