If there was and edge/ending and there was light outside it. AND it was expanding at the speed of lite. (by the way im drunk and cant remember is it light or lite? i think its light) And by that i mean if it was a Balloon type structure the surface of the balloon was expanding at the speed of light. BUT you were right on the inside of the balloon would you EVER be able to see any outside light reaching in?..... I'm almost positive that makes no sense.

Drunk again?? No problem. The Universe is expanding outward at about the speed of light and the "edge" that you refer to is the actual outer boundary of our Ubiverse as it contines to expand. Outside of our Universe, or the absolutely empty vacuum that the Universe is expanding into has no light to shine into our Universe. It is a totally dark, empty, absolute zero cold, infinite vacuum.

Don't forget, it's not only expanding, but the pieces (stars) are fading over time, so that if you went beyond the last star, you would probably not be able to look back and see any. So in a sense, yes, there is an edge, but we can't reach it. Some people think that the universe might be like a black hole; you can't egt out of one of those, either,
