I think something similar to a super nova explonsion (Maybe stronger), but nothing is really going to change. Even if the Universe is not infinite in size, it is probably so enormous that, for all intents and purposes, it is infinite.

Now I guess the next question would be "Well what about a greater concentration?". As I understand it, in order to "break" (can't find the appropriate verb) the nucleus of the atoms (that's what causes nuclear explonsions) you have to use a tremendous and maybe technically unachievable force. So it might not even be possible to set off a nuclear explonsion of that size.

I'd die before counting all the grain in a desert.

I'll snooze before numbering all the hair on my head.

But does that mean I should run from the pain?

Does that mean I shouldn't care, go to bed?

I'll follow life's long lane. There's time later to see where it's led.
