Well this one here, no it doesn't. And it's somewhat counterintuitive when you think about a big bang. That's the prevailing theory about how the universe started. Sort of from this incredibly small region of space-time that suddenly blew up into existence. And so in those terms you would think, well, you're not asked to be the center. But it wasn't. The universe is expanding equally in all spaces. And so matter, for a large part of energy, falls distributed equally throughout the universe. Unlike an explosion, if you look at an explosion you would see more material intended to be closer to the center of the explosion than further out. And so you expect that with a big bang, however, the universe during the big bang, it wasn't something that was a local, what you want to call it, explosion. It was where everything just expanded into existence immediately. There was no specific place where it happened. It just happened to all of space at that instance of time. So no, it does not have a center. And I guess depending where you're standing, I mean, if you could say that's your center, well, it would check them out. But technically no center. Too little that's a trivia.
