Is there an "edge" of the universe?

[From: ] [author: ] [Date: 17-03-04] [Hit: ]
The nature of no-things is a quasi-philosophical question since when we say nothing colloquially we generally are referring to something. even empty space is something as it has dimensions.......

quantumclaustrophobe say: So, picture an ant standing on a huge beach ball. The surface of that beach ball is a 2-d representation of our 3-d universe. Air is added to the beach ball, making it expand. The ant could wander around forever, and never get to an 'edge'.... and, that's similar to our universe - while it's expanding, there's no wall, no edge to where it starts and stops.

poornakumar b say: No.
Universe is expanding & that means there are no partd of it that don't expand.

Chris say: It's not so much that there is "nothing" beyond that boundary, more that there isn't anything beyond that boundary.

even empty space is something as it has dimensions.

I'm not sure I've helped
