Looking at some of the current theories of how the universe was created, I believe the edge of the universe is an expanding electromagnetic wave of a fantastic scale. Now assuming you go with the theory that the universe was created when large "bubble" of matter and a slightly smaller bubble of "antimatter" collided and caused the big bang, then it is fair to assume that somewhere outside out out universe this same reaction took place, perhaps even in the opposite manner creating and antimatter universe. I wouldn't call this exactly an alternate dimension, but I don't think anyone would be able to get to another universe even in a google (the number, not the search engine) years. Just passing through the barrier would rip apart your molecules at the sub atomic level.
If you would like a really interesting idea, look at the theory of infinite regression. It states that our universe could be inside an electron orbiting another molecule. That would mean that the electrons we study are actually universes that exist for a pico second. Of course time is relative so it was trillions of years for them. I love thinking about these things because it can get really interesting. I'd be happy to speak with you more about it if you are really interested.

There isn't another side. If the universe is finite, it is still unbounded so there is no boundary. The analogy is with the surface of the earth. The surface is finite, but there are no boundaries. This is an example of a two-dimensional manifold (two since we can mistake it for a plane if we look at small portions). In the same way, the universe at any point in time can be a three dimensional manifold that is finite and unbounded. Even more so, when you include time, it is possible for it to be finite and four dimensional. In fact, these are the models that actually arise when you aplly general relativity to the whole universe.

The finiteness or infiniteness of the universe pertains to the area over which the regulations of physics that we are attentive to prepare. there is not any "different section" in any prevalent experience via fact there is not any boundary. there is not any place the place you basically come to the tip of the universe and would trip no farther. in case you have been in a position to undertake this manner of adventure (at many cases the cost of sunshine), a straight away line trip would ultimately carry you back around the universe to the commencing element (very similar to a straight away line trip constrained to the floor of a sphere will ultimately carry you back to the commencing element). The universe may well be a closed area, yet that doesn't propose it has an area. That being pronounced, even on a sphere, there is the area previous the sector, so there would or won't be some thing previous the dimensional limits of the universe. different universes possibly. it is not going we are going to ever comprehend via fact the regulations of physic that we use to income the universe do no longer prepare to something previous the universe.

Universe is not finite
it is increasing in size day by day
but if thinked may on the other side there can be multi-dimensional universe or parralar universe

The latest theory is that the universe isn't infinite, because it's shrinking. But no one even started to figure out what's on the other side yet.
Probably Starbucks.

What is on the other side of Space? That is like asking "what happened before time?" That's not a logical question that can be answered.

Space - nothing - by it's definition "an abscence of something"
It's the same as asking if there is nothing between the stars how come's it takes up so much space ? - get it

If it is finite, then there is no other side.
Unless you believe in multi-dimension.
