So, the universe is supposedly expanding....?

Here's what I think:

Anything beyond the edge of the universe would just be nothingness since it doesn't exist yet. There's no light since it hasn't been created yet so it would just be black.

Maybe if you're close enough, you could see stars being born. Who knows? We're on Earth.

A good analogy is this: Imagine you are an ant standing on the surface of a balloon that is being inflated. Wherever you stand you see the round balloon expanding all around you. If there are lots of ants evenly spaced all over the balloon then each ant will see the space between itself and its friends getting larger, and to all of them it will look like they are stationary and everyone else is moving away from them. None of the ants is standing at the edge, because there isn't one!

The universe is like that, except where the balloon is a 2-dimensional surface curved around on itself in the 3rd dimension, space is a 3-dimensional surface curved around on itself in a 4th dimension.

The universe isn't actually expanding at all. The idea that it does comes from misinterpreting galactic redshifts as a doppler effect when they are actually a scattering effect. The galaxies are not generally receding from each other at all. Their light simply loses energy through it's interaction with the molecular hydrogen of the intergalactic medium:

If expanding space was responsible for cosmological redshifts it would cause a reduction in the surface brightness of distant galaxies but we find this is not the case:

Also, as well as stretching out the wavelengths of light, expanding space would stretch out the light curves of quasars (their oscillation in luminance). No sign of this either:

This documentary may enlighten you:

The universe is expanding in the sense that the distances between galaxy clusters are increasing with time.

However, there is no edge.

In the broadest sense, the view from one place looks much like that from another. (Obviously this is not true on more local scales like planetary systems or a location in a galaxy versus one in intergalactic space).

Maybe the universe is an Orb that expands and this orb is placed in gods room so if you reach the edge u can see where god lives "im joking obviously" but its nice theory :p

It's constantly expanding and beyond that is... Nothing :) I don't know but if in the beginning for both religion and science then life can only exist within this universe therefore the Big Bang creating that expanding universe is taking up the space of nothing with emptiness and then life

There is no edge. Space curves back on itself in a higher dimension. If you could go massively faster than light then you would return to your start point without seeming to turn.

We can show that the Universe is expanding and we are at the centre AND at the edge.

The Universe is finite yet unbounded.

Yes the universe is expanding!

In no valid geometric model of the universe is there an "edge".

There is no edge.
