If the Big Bank theory is true, and the universe was created from an infinite point, expanding at near the speed of light in all directions, all matter including us, on our side of the center, would be moving away from all matter on the other side of center of the universe at a speed greater than the speed of light, cumumlatively speaking, therefore the light from them would never be able to reach our telescopes, and we could never look any further than the origin of the Big Bang event.

Nothing moves faster than the speed of light according to Einstein's relativity theory.
The Hubble deep field...probably the most famous Hubble image...looked back 13 billion years in time...approximately 98% of the age of the Universe. It is theorized that before that there wasn't anything to see because matter as we know it didn't exist...just energy.

It did not "boost in all instructions." It higher. Is increasing. there is no fringe of the universe to get higher . and larger o and larger O. The universe is now, and always has been, actual each and each and every of the area there is, and also you should't fall off the area. both the universe is countless in length, or finite and wrapped round so as that in case you went in some route for lengthy adequate, you will get decrease back to the position you all started (except for the technical problem that the universe is increasing too immediately so that you could ever actual finished the holiday). The universe, it truly is unbounded, is uniformly full of stuff (mass/skill) everywhere, and always has been. it is the DISTANCES between issues (specially: galaxy clusters) that get higher and larger with each and every passing second. Galaxies are not from now on increasing "outwards" into void area. Galaxies proceed to be better or a lot less the position they always were and area is increasing between the galaxies. there is better room now than there became the day previous, and there'll be even better the following day. The universe should be finite and under no circumstances have a centre. (Which usa is on the centre of the Earth's floor?) there is no reason that the universe can't be countless and increasing. even as human beings call the universe "flat," they don't look speaking about it being 2-dimensional like a pasteboard. They propose that the geometry of area is Euclidean, i.e. that triangles all have one hundred and eighty ranges in them, the component of a circle is pi*r^2, parallel lines under no circumstances converge or diverge, and so on. it truly is as adverse to a "closed" geometry (finite yet unbounded equivalent to both-D floor of a sphere), wherein triangles have better than one hundred and eighty ranges, parts of circles are lower than pi*r^2, and parallel lines finally converge; or an "open" geometry, like a saddle, wherein triangles have lower than one hundred and eighty ranges, circles have better than pi*r^2 of section, and parallel lines diverge.

I think it is universally accepted that all spiral galaxies have super massive black holes at their centers. Think of our milkey way galaxy as a massive explosion of creationism that will eventually collapse back in on itself with the help from our supermassive black hole at the center of our galaxy which holds everything together (this is why our galaxy is spiral shaped). The universe has already been revealed through KOBE a nasa satellite that took a picture of our infant universe by measuring left - over microwaves from the "big bang". The picture is that of hot and cold spots in the universe as it expanded. So if in fact we are getting sucked back into the center of our galaxy then the light and everything else is being sucked back to which means the light would be coming back in our direction from the other side of the galaxy.

We can only see what we believe to be a small fraction of the universe. We call this "the observable universe."
If we work from the big bang theory, the universe is thought to have expanded, possibly faster than the speed of light (because things were popping up, not traveling outward). There is no pinpointable center.
You can look up "observable universe" or "cosmological horizon" to learn a good deal more about the subject of your question.

The big bang is not true, if you have a really good telescope it is possible to see other planets in outer space.

no no no no it is not possible because the universe is infinite the big bang never happened

hmmm.... well.. you would have to travel to the other side of the universe to see the other half
