Your problem is that you talk about the universe like it's a bubble which exists within something else. It's completely different. It's a bubble that exists within absolutely nothing. The universe has several dimensions, but let's just talk about the typical four dimensions.
When you travel along one dimensional vector for long enough, you'll reach the end of the universe. However, that dimension is a property of the universe. By definition, you can't travel beyond that border... but if you could, the dimension you're following would be nonexistent. No length, width, height, time. The universe is expanding, but not into anything. It confounds the imagination, yes, but that's the way it is.

There are all kinds of legitimate scientific theories floating around these days about multiple universes and parallel universes. A good book on the subject is "Parallel Worlds" by Dr. Michio Kaku. He also has a pretty good web site: www.mkaku.org

Whatever may be out there beyond the void there's one thing you can be guaranteed to find & that is a McDonalds restaurant where, even though they had achieved what is sure to involve trans-dimensional travel, the food will still fail to resemble anything like what is in the pictures & everything tastes the same. That & a GATSO

Why can't it be infinite? Just because it's a concept most difficult to us to comprehend because of it's sheer scale, it nevertheless MAY hold true.
Truth is, we'll probably never know. But it's going to be a lot of hard work finding out... :D

Here is a thing for you to ponder over.
Life began on Earth (or so they say). But a lot ao viruses and micro organisms (living things) are delivered to Earth via comets and meteorites. Where did they originate?
What came first, the chicken or the egg?

its simple .... time and space are only "our" limitation...
universe in beyond that ....
we cannot define the universe with the parameters that we have devised in this world... when thinking about the universe or its creator, our minds cannot comprehend its depths... we need some other parameters

I think that there are lots of parallel realities to this we are living.So in another reality, universe may not be infinite.

It extremely relies upon on what you propose with the aid of small. in accordance with mass-power, a CMB photon is probable the smallest. the two that or a neutrino. maximum sub-atomic debris (quarks, gluons, etc.) are much extra huge.
