Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -The poet Edgar Allan Poe suggested that the finite size of the observable universe resolves the apparent paradox. More specifically, because the universe is finitely old and the speed of light is finite, only finitely many stars can be observed from Earth (although the whole universe can be infinite in space).
Detailed explanation-2: -What is Olber’s Paradox? A paradox pointing out that if the universe were infinite in both age and size (with stars found throughout the universe), then the sky would not be dark at night.
Detailed explanation-3: -Answer A : No, the number of stars cannot be infinite.
