Assuming you could travel through space at trillions of times the speed of light, would space eventually end?
or keep on going forever?

Such an agonizing question. It keeps your mind wondering and can't sleep.
I reckon there is an end or some sort of boundary which human cannot cross. Something will be on the otherside but it's beyond our capability to get there. Like flies trapped on inside of screen/window.

Your question has this flaw: "trillions of times the speed of light .." A speed is only relative to something else. Perhaps we move at that speed, relative to something else, without knowing it.
We say: "Hey look! There is light coming from the sun, moving at the speed if light!" Then there is the light that says: "Hey look! There is the earth coming toward us at the speed of light!"
This is, basically, what Einstein's General Relativity theory tells us: Everything is relative to the observer.
Second flaw: "... space eventually end" Well, it can't. Wherever you are in the universe, you are at its center, period! You don't believe me? Okay, take an old fashion beam antenna and connect it to your un-tuned TV set. Do you see all the white spots on the screen? Those are the Cosmic Microwave Background, the left-over from the Big Bang. Turn you antenna in any direction and you will always see as much white dots. Why? Because the Big Bang is not a point in the sky but a sphere around us, or rather, a sphere around any observer, anywhere in the universe.
Here is a metaphor: If you were a fish swimming in the ocean of a planet without continents, you would always be in the center of the ocean, right? Likewise, if you travel at any speed through the universe, you will always observe it as being at its center and never meet the "end of space" of any boundary.

So you're really just wondering what the edge of space would be like.. Good question!
I think there would be an edge somewhere, there must be if it started at a point in the big bang. But I doubt it would be anything remarkable to look at, it would obviously be black, and since space would end so would time, so if you actually reached the edge if space I think you'd feel like you were still moving but to an outside observer you'd be frozen for eternity!

debris that have mass require potential to enhance up them. The closer to the fee of light you get, the extra potential is had to bypass quicker via fact the debris themselves get extra great in proportion to the extra advantageous speed. meaning to enhance as much as ‘easy speed’ will require countless potential. no longer adequate potential exists interior the finished universe to propel basically a unmarried electron to the fee of light. the undemanding equation Kinetic potential = a million/2 m v2 makes it impossible. Einstein as quickly as suggested that the fee of light is the conventional speed shrink and that vacationing quicker than the fee of light would violate the causality concept ie it might violate reason and result to illustrate it might make it a threat for a bullet to hit its purpose in the past the set off have been even pulled. you will have heard this yet in addition in case you had 2 twins and you despatched one up in a rocket vacationing on the fee of light 40 years would desire to bypass on earth yet basically some days for the only interior the rocket so the twin on earth would effectively be 40 years older (it might actual decelerate time).

Oh well......so many solutions. Maybe none of them!Back to the roman empire and the middle age, smart educated people though their city was the center of the world, that God had wanted earth to be the center of the world ect....all wrong!!My guess is......space is a giant sphere..like earth....you will only end where you started. I wonder about the other's opinions though.
