the question should be "If space is growing what's it growing in to"

It is all a point of view: to us the universe is expanding because we are travelling through space time which is the fabric of the universe.
All times are the same they are points within the universe. We are travelling along a road and the scenery is changing but the universe or road is still there even though we have moved along it.
Looking from outside the universe i suspect there would be no change in size.

Its not the galaxies or Stars which r receding from each other. In fact its the universe which is expanding. U can understand this by taking the example of an inflating balloon marked with dots. As the balloon inflates, the dots marked on it seem to move away from each other. But actually' the dots r not moving away from each other , its the balloon which is inflating. Same is the case with the galaxies and universe.

Space grows into many areas.... it grows into dark matter and it grows into black hole space....the reason that space is still expanding is caused by it's A: ability to do this and B: the constant pressure in the universe.

Infinity is a mathematical concept and not something that actually exists, therefore, space or the universe is not actually infinite.
As to whether its growing or not, that's a good question as it's one that touches on the limits of our knowledge.

Our known part of the universe is growing into the rest of the universe.
The universe goes on for ever and ever and ever into infinity.

If by space you mean space in this universe, then it is constantly growing at the moment.
If you meant all spaces that might exist, then no-one knows.
Maybe you could find out?

By definition when you say <> this means automatically that it has already a known size ,occupies a known space and of course must have also known boundaries ,and beyond that one comes to ask himself what about after that boundaries.......what you should call that ????You see ? There is no other way ......
space is infinite .How is possible infinite to grow ? It`s already infinite!!!!

I answer lots of question about this..
The universe in expanding and (apparently - but I don't by it) and accelerating rate. Hence it is growning.
Now there is a boundary tothe edge of the universe but it is moving away faster than light so you can neverreach the edge. Hence the universe is bounded and unbounded at the same time.

I don't know what you're talking about, but if it's what I think, then why are you asking that sort of question on here? Are you REALLY expecting an answer from a space expert or are you just wasting time for us all? And if you DID get a definitive answer, what would you do with that information?

the definition of a shape is what it looks like compared to it's background. therefore if the universe has a shape then there must be something outside of it for it to grow into.
