huh??? I think you're asking what the universe is shaped like, right??? I don't think we know the answer to that.
10)... I think I've heard Einstein describe it as being the shape of a bow tie...

Since the Universe travels for "eternity" in all directions, to the human comprehension we would have to conclude that it is "round". However, since the void or the Universe travels in all directions for "ETERNITY" without an "end"...logic only concludes that the Universe has NO SHAPE WHATSOEVER because "eternity" HAS no "shape. Think about this for a moment: If the Universe had at ANY point in its' existance, that "point" in its existance would MARK AND "EDGE", which the Universe simply doesnt have. "GOD" is Eternal...an the Bible says that even the heavens cannot "contain Him. "But will God indeed dwell on the Earth? behold, the heaven and heaven of heavens CANNOT CONTAIN THEE; how much less this house (temple) that I (Solomon) have builded (1st Kings 8:27)." Since God continues for all "eternity", the "heavens" therefore must forever do the same. It's only logical. Our "finite" minds cannot comprehend that which is "infinite"...it's beyond our comprehansion. And yes, God is "everywhere" (omnipresent) at all times...and even knows our very "thoughts" which flight through our finite little minds.

Universe has not a definite shape like an amoebe. And can not have too. The expansion movement we see is only an illusion. Because we see expansion of TIME only. Time is dependant to dimensions. There should not exist 'time' since dimensions wouldn't exist. How do you measure time? Time interval is measured as a sum of infinite small movements of relative motion of two indicators. In the watch or over the atom, not a matter what are the references. But there must BE references to measure time interval. Since we could not measure time interval, TIME ITSELF SHOULD NOT EXIST. When we assume one galaxy to another as reference points of measurements of time we notice the 'expansion of time', not an expansion of material. Universe is in its place and constant. The Hubble constant is only " a constant of illusion". I can proof it in mathematic way too.. very simple.

Through "esoteric" or "philosophical" "discussions" we have the information that our universe is a "woman" and she is called Arianna.
Our galaxy (milkyway) is just a cell from a muscle in her knee.
Just consider, if you were so tiny, that you could be "lost"within a cell of your muscle in your knee...Should you be able to get the shape of your body?????
I doubt.:)

our universe does not have a flat shape because it has only 2 dimensions and universe has 3 dimensions

What is the shape of an explosion?
Now try to imagine the way it looks from within.
(also, make that an explosion without a ground below, so imagine an airblast or explosion in space.)

it really doesnt have a shape, if you go in one direction, you'll eventually come back to the place where you started
