thats a very good question
the answer to this is, There hasn't been any proof so far as to whether the universe has the start and ending simply because of its massiveness and complexity that extends beyond our current knwoledge. BUT I KNOW WHAT IS BEYOND THE UNIVERS...Confident,yeah
THE Universe is as big as we wish it to be.I mean it can be as small as an atom.it's all a matter of RELATIVITY. The irony here is that the smallest particle we know;an atom, answers your question. BEYOND THE UNIVERSE THERE IS...COMPLETENESS.Completeness is a point where LIGHT cannot go through.It is a dark matter that is non-penetrateable by anything existing in our space-time universe,including the sound. Tyring to enter in it is like being trapped in a locked room with no wall,no window,nothing that can be descerned by our senses. This wall is not solid but elastic like a rubber tube of which makes it impossible to even pierce through it because of no resistance of any kind.The rubber feeling of it cannot be felt but be told only trough instincts. The darkness of it is not colour black but just limit to human vision or to anything conscious, sub or non-consciuos. It has no defined margin or edges. The best example is the blue colur in the sky.We see the blue up, but where it axactly starts,nobody knows, since even when we are inside it, we dont see the blue but we KNOW we are in it. The first most important thing is that the beyond of the universe has no SPACE,simply because its the completeness of the non-universal meterial. The second important thing is that it doesn't necessarily exist on the outskirts of our space,the BEYOND OF THE UNIVERSE is so close to us as much as the distant blue of the sky is to the surface. It is like a human shadow that hangs around but cannot be stepped on. BEYOND THE UNIVERSE,nothing and everything is the same.BEYOND THE UNIVERSE is the universe with no dimensions.MO.T.

Well, if by universe you mean the visible universe that we can see from Earth then the answer is no one really knows. See we can only see so far out into space; we only see to the point where light has been able to get to us since the beginning of the universe. The current held age of the universe is 13.7 billion years, so technically with the best telescopes ever we would be able to see as far out as 13.7 billion light years and that is it. We couldn't see further out cause the light could not have possibly reached us yet. This is why you couldn't know what is "beyond our universe." There could be something else beyond our universe, or it could end after that and we could never know. If there were another civilization out there beyond our visible boundary that was also looking for the edge they would have the same problem as we have; but the neat thing is that neither of us would know the other exists!

There is no "beyond the universe". If you were to reach the end of the universe and keep going, you would simply be pushing the universe further and further out. Nothing exists there right? But when you show up, you exist, you create gravity, heat, energy, which creates existence, when you leave, the particles that have been attracted to you by your own gravity stay behind, leaving the existence intact. So sticking by this theory, the universe is as big as we want it to be. But in order to get to the "edge of the universe" you'd need to travel faster than the speed of light, because where there is light, there is heat, energy, existence, universe. So it's not possible to reach the edge, but if you could, you'd be pushing it out of reach again, just like here on earth, you can never reach the horizon.

Nothing! Either space goes on forever (is infinite) or it comes back around
in some kind of closed loop, but the way we understand space right now, it
is impossible for it to have any edges, and so there is no direction you
could point and say "50 yards in that direction space ends". Since there
are not any ends, there is not really any way to understand what "beyond"
means. But there could be other things that "exist" that are somehow
outside our own universe - parallel universes!

Everything that was sucked up in the Bermuda Triangle.........
Also where the aliens take people who are abducted and never seen again
It's the realm of the answer to ALL mysteries including the answers to all questions that are rhetorical
It's where all lost keys and socks go that get lost in the washing machines and dryers
It's where the answers are to all things we wonder about that have no conclusive answers
It's where God goes to take a nap, and while he's sleeping it really is only about 10 minutes, but in our time it feels like years
He's napping now, and that's why we started this stupid war because when the cat's away..................
It's where my man is. Because I can't seem to find a good one!

nothing, not even space or time exist "outside" the universe. to quote a dead writer, "there's no there, there". space-time itself seems to have originated in the big bang. (someone really needs to change that name.) the big bang was the whole universe, and everywhere in the universe was once the big bang.
space-time seems to be something like the two-dimensional surface of a sphere, except that it is four-dimensional. the universe has no center and no edge. observations by nasa's microwave anisotropy probe suggest that the observable universe has a radius of at least 78 000 000 000 light-years. the observable universe is only a small part of the entire universe.
i have something else for you to think about too. the observable universe seems to have a radius of at least 78 000 000 000 light-years, but the universe is only 13 700 000 000 years old.

There is a theory called a "Soap-Bubble Universe." And what it specifically touches upon is that the universe is a single bubble amongst many millions of others, like a clump of bubbles in a bubble-bath. Each bubble containing its own universe. It might be possible to navigate from bubble to bubble through the use of wormholes.

Well, I have pondered that myself at times.
Until we can see beyond the universe, then we will never know.
I, myself, think that the universe is infinite...or so vast that we would never ever find an end.....or a beginning.

By definition the universe is everything.
So 'anything beyond' is a part of the universe.
So there is no 'beyond'.
