I think you're a little confused:
The Earth is within the Milky Way which is our galaxy. The Milky Way is one of several billion within the Universe. Unfortunatly nobody would be able to determine how big the Universe is with existing technology or even possible future technology - it's just too vast a task and would probably take more time than the Human Race has.
Also, Pluto wasn't kicked out of our Solar System, it has just been reclassified, along with 3 other similar bodies, as a Dwarf Planet. I'd imagine that it will still remain in text books along with the 8 planets but alongside Ceres, Charon and UB313 as Dwarf Planets.

The Earth and Milky Way are both parts of the Universe. The Universe contains the Milky Way Galaxy, which contains the Earth. They do not really start and end... Nobody really knows what is "beyond" the universe, or into what the universe is expanding. However, if there is something beyond it, then the Universe is a part of it.
Some scientists do not believe Pluto qualifies as a planet in the classical sense...

The congregation of numerous solar system is known as Universe and the earth belongs to one of the system! Teh science has a long way to goto find the exact number of constituent systems. There is much for the science which has to be discovered on this very earth and the solar system that we belong to. The scientific addition or deduction to the solar system is in no way going to influence the universe except the human mind!

The Universe is Infinitely and eternally.
================================
1. Everyone knows, that absolute temperature T=0K cannot be reached.
We can only indefinitely come nearer to her.
2. Everyone knows, that nobody can reach
absolute speed of quantum of light c=1.
We can only indefinitely come nearer to her.
3. But everyone also knows, that only quantum of light goes with
absolute speed c=1.
It is the fact, it is a reality.
Question: Unless can this absolute movement c=1 occur in relative reference frame ?
Answer: No.!
The absolute movement can occur only in absolute frame of reference.
But only one absolute frame of reference is known T=0K
(which is impossible to reach).
And only in her quantum of light can move with the absolute speed c=1.
And it is also reality.
So, what can tell quantum of light about his travel in the Infinity, parallel world?

Our universe is infinite, which means it has no boundary or edge. It goes on for ever.
