Creation

The Universe is the entirety of all of 3-dimensional space, and a single flowing temporal dimension flanked by two other flow states, gravity and love. Gop has designated this universe as the central and largest variation of creation. Gop has made and given this to all hopfolk and all other life forms.

Expansion into the Exoverse

After Sop reached the climax of his enlightenment, Gop bestowed upon him a great power that made him glow immensely bright. He rose into the sky and vanished. The cosmos was expanded greatly. It is speculated by Hop scientists that the Universe was already infinite in size and time. This event may have not only made it more dense, but the composition of matter and the

Shortly after the end of the Civil War, and early into the New Hop Expansion, we discovered a potential Exoverse, an area with more dimensions in space or time. After much study, we determined it contains 4 physical dimensions and one temporal dimension. The 4th dimension of space is where we speculate Sop went to. This is not to be confused with the flow dimensions.

This may be another dimension of 3D space, however, and does not constitute an entire universe, not due to its size, but due to its composition. While being multi-dimensional, it could be it is absent of time and the space exists at a omnidirectional flow state that is unaltered by the other dimensions, meaning it could never decay and resists entropy entirely. This Exoverse existence can be seen as a perfected state of the universe all other beings reside inside. Existence may be greater than these two spaces, however none have been identified or validated through intense study and meditation by all beings collectively.

Controversy

Some alien species think the Hops are heretics and spread lies about the origin of time and space, and how it functions. They also claim life after death exists. Hops have no evidence as their species does not have any physical basis to put this on. The hops tried to defend their scientific discoveries, however a large portion of those studies and the research associated was destroyed during the Hop Civil War. Others choose to believe the hops, however they cannot fathom the provided evidence we have uncovered during our expeditions into space.

Vibri and the Science & Discovery department of the Grand Sop Army have been assigned to reconstructing their findings and evidence as close to records as there was. The Hoppist Network had been hacked and most of that data was lost in the conflict due to it.
