[header] How to create a fictional universe [title] Consider the scope of the universe. [step] One of the first elements of the universe you should focus on is the scope of the universe, or how much physical space the universe takes up in a larger world. Consider how big you want your universe to be.
You may want to have a universe as big as the size of a football field or as small as the size of one planet. But the possibilities do not exist in greater dimensions-because there are so many aliens and they are all small organisms. It might help to think about what you want your fictional universe to hold and how large it is compared to other universes or worlds. [substeps] Maybe the universe is the larger world, as far as your characters know, and there are several planets or lands within the universe. Modular is a somewhat larger universe that's characterized by multiple fixed space segments. For example, if you want to enter 3d space and the universe does not take up 2 galaxies, then you don't want a galaxy that's 2 kilometers (2 miles) or 1 mile (2 kilometers) or less. [substeps] The diameter of the universe you select will determine how much space it takes up in a given space. Although it is not exact, some planets, like planet earth, develop the girth of a galaxy.
