Man has pondered this very point for years and you would think that with the so called advances in knowledge and understanding, we would have an answer for that one by now!
Because, as individuals, our own worlds are finite .... four walls to our rooms, top and bottom to the country we live in ..... so far we can go in the world before we start going back ....... we want to place barriers on what exists outside of that. We do that by default because barriers, constraints rule our lives, don't they?
The deepest thinking suggests that space is indeed endless .... if it weren't, there would be a barrier. But a barrier against what? Nothingness? And if mankind didn't exist, together with his ability to reason and invent, then infinty would have no concept, no meaning and certainly wouldn't matter. Things matter because we believe them to be so .,.... that is what makes us human .... we care, or at least we should.
But taking that one step further, infinity in space can only simply be a concept, a thought, a point of conjecture. We know and see the sun on a daily basis, but it is simply a glowing mass of energy that one day will wane and die ..... so if that is true, what will happen to mankind? Leads you onto another question .... any other 'suns' out there? And if not, how does the universe exist beyond our understanding ... total blackness? ... total nothingness ? ......... in a void awaiting a big bang to happen and shift life forces onwards?
How can we ever know? ..... I would conclude by saying that space is indeed an endless nothing and withing our limited understanding of the life force, there is indeed nothing more to it ..... yet!

It is just an endless matters out there....far away from home earth....it is impossible to go endless miles even with our advanced technologies and with such sacrifices....if wormholes exist then can travel in lightspeeds but not sure where it ends...but atleast we all know that there is a universe and not sure that there are many parallel universes....but however all i say is that if we have one soul then there is one universe!

Space doesn't seem to be completely empty anywhere. Every bit of space has some kind of radiation (like light from stars) going through it. And I think there's something like an average of 1 atom in every cubic centimeter of "empty space".
So a real vacuum is actually a very rare thing. And if gravity turns out to be waves, then (since it's continuous) space is "full" of gravity too.

Endless nothing. Get used to it.

i think this is basically too early to assert approximately it before getting some extra clues. yet for many theories, there needs to be a universe wherein all factors ought to be taken with the aid of fact the centre and which might in basic terms ensue if the universe is endless.

There is material and energy out between the stars, and even between galaxies. Recent theories, which I do not fully understand, state that matter is still being created out of space-time out there. There is some sort of equivalence, I guess, like matter and energy E=MC^2.

we cant say it as end less bcoz some theories say that the universe is still growing and the recent reviewed bigbang theory states that
millions of years ago when the univese is formed after the bigbang it
expanded in the time of one trillionth of a second, so we can say that there is end and the border is still growin more and more just bcoz of the reason 'more weight more broad' just consider it as an elastic box

Who knows?
But nothing is endless! There must be an end, anyway

Galaxies traveling at tremendous speeds toward who knows what for 13.4 billion years and counting, not feasible for us to comprehend that, but an end to that could be another big bang in reverse in maybe another 13 billion years, but what I can tell you for sure is that none of us are going to be able to witness that.

The universe is in a glass bowl in a giants pocket, and the stars are the pinpricks letting the light in from outside...
