If it indeed rotates, this raises another question: What does it rotate around, i.e. where is the center of the universe? How does our position in the universe relate to this center, or which (known) structures have we observed there. Could it be the Great Attractor?

spiral ever increasing outward, wouldnt the center represent the big bang

Because time isn't linear or whatever and its still expanding (I have no idea what im talking about)

If it's flat, and not curved, I think the center would be everywhere?

I can't find any flaw in this. I was trying to think of it in any way other than having an actual center somewhere. This can be my model till I understand it better.

Is this maybe related to spin of particles that was considered to be "a kind of rotation momentum how it behaves mathematically but for all we know it does not literally represent any kind of rotation"...and it turns out it does in fact represent the fundamental rotation of the universe ?
