This is a ridiculous assumption. For this to be, you would require an amazingly clean space free of particles and dust also.

This is about as logical as believing in a flat earth based on fairy tales and piss poor analysis.

The full model of the universe is complex but the answer to Olber's Paradox is that the paradox concept is flawed.

First of all, once light has traveled far enough, its energy level has dropped below the point where you can see it anymore, due to spherical expansion which in effect is a dilution over an area. For example, if you have a bucket of red paint you can see the color when you paint a barn, but if you dilute the bucket with the ocean, it becomes so thin you can't see the paint anymore. Another useful analogy is that if you make a sound, if someone is far enough away, they cannot hear it, as it is diluted with distance. You in the US can't directly hear someone talking in Hawaii.

The newest space telescope shows that that universe is incredibly filled with stars but they are so far away they appear microscopic to the eye; we can't see their light.

Second, space is not fully empty, and matter between us and the stars blocks off some of their light.

Finally, it is the wish of the Great Turtle that you cannot see the farthest stars. I am a priest of the Great Turtle; I caution you, don't piss him off.

You can take this multie-page mini course to see why the night sky is dark. https://www.e-education.psu.edu/astro801/content/l10_p2.html

TLDR: Not all stars last forever or are all born at the same time + the universe is expanding away from us in all directions.
