Hi,
According to your crude earthly measuring system it would take up to much web space to type it out in inches, feet, miles or whatever.The only way to type it out here is by the volarin system of measurement which is the only recognized system of measurement by intelligent life forms. It is .000006 vols high by .008 vols wide. Hope this helped but if you need further assistance meet me at the south pole. I'll be passing through again in the earth year 2010 on the earth month December on the earth day 12 on earths pacific time zone 2.45 PM. Don't be late.

This is from: (check it out for yourself if you want the whole story - it's easy to read and understand)

"The simple answer is that the observable Universe is about 10 billion light years in radius. That number is obtained by multiplying how old we think the Universe is by the speed of light. The reasoning there is quite straightforward: we can only see out to that distance from which light can have reached us since the Universe began. "
So, if the radius is 10 billion light years then the diameter would be 20 billion light years. One light year is about 6 trillion miles, so 20 billion light years would be about 120 billion trillion miles or about 120,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 miles!

The question you ask is almost Impossible to answer because it is widley known that the universe is still expanding.However there are people who attempt to map and measure what's called the "known universe".The known universe is the universe that we can see wth our mordern technology.Here are a few links where you can find more info......

the universe is actually 0x0x0 because its absolutely nothing... but if it was to be something you still cannot find a measurement because its not a shape or inside anything that has a shape

Our solar system almost fits in one of the outer arms of the Milky Way. It depends on the galaxy there's: spiral galaxy, elliptical galaxy, irregular galaxy, and other galaxies that are like the others but smaller or big.

we can't tell how large the universe is because we have only charted less than one percent, ask how wide the known universe is

156 billion light years and still growing,divide that by feet or meters.

No such thing as width or height of an irregular object, and it's 156 billion light-years.
