Suppose you got into a spaceship and flew in a straight line, forever and ever, where would you end up?

Asked by HungryGuy (16044points) January 1st, 2010

Assume, for the sake of argument, infinite fuel and air and food, and you lived forever. Would the ship just keep flying farther and farther away from its startng point (the earth in the Milky Way galaxy) in a straight line for all eternity? Or will it eventually “circle around” to return to its starting point?
