(the sound reflects radio broadcasts going back in time the farther you get away from earth)

What if all of those enormous stars are all spinning around inside a sphere, are all situated within a much larger star? Could this seemingly unlimited universe we are in be the inside of a star (a black hole), which itself is spiralling through a universe inside a star, inside a universe, inside a star? Do the insides of the Sun, Betelguese and other stars contain vast universes within them, like molecules containing space and atoms, containing space and electrons, containing space and quarks etc.?
