Or perhaps not only Space, maybe just here on Earth.

Or you could get even weirder, and wonder if the reason that electrons aren’t anywhere in particular is b/c they are really everywhere, at once - so maybe we are all the same entity, who just forgot?

Sci-Fi is fascinating to me, especially from the Golden Era of like Asimov and HG Wells and Arthur C. Clarke. And one thing that scifi has taught me is that nothing is beyond the bounds of imagination!:-D

And part of that is that Time itself is something that we see only narrowly, through our human perspective. But from the perspective of Energy, which as you say has existed since the dawn of Time, and will continue unti its end too, the lifetime of stars themselves is but a “short” while. Or like how we may read a long book (or series?), describing someone’s entirely lifetime or even spans over millennia, but to us it takes just a few days (weeks?) to read.

Or we could get even weirder than that - this whole Universe could be a simulation, and like there’s a million running in parallel, and when it grows cold or uninteresting, the Matrix-God could just start it back up again to fulfill whatever purpose it had in mind.

None of which we can properly DO anything about right now, since we do not know and cannot affect any particular outcome. Hence why we wrap back around to just ignoring it, from the practical perspective at least, and live out our lives however we wish:-). But it is fun to think about regardless:-).
