All living things die. They have a limit. So, shouldn't Space be limited as well?

It is all Maya or illusion.
Even Albert Einstein said, "Reality is merely an illusion, albeit a very persistent one."
and
"Time and space are modes in which we think and not conditions in which we live."
Time and space are, of course, relative.
When you die, you will transcend the limits of humanity. Returning to your original godlike form, you will remember that time and space are only illusions. You swore an oath to pretend that time and space exist when you decided to come here to play this temporary game of humanity.
When you return, you will be unable to determine the difference between one millisecond and 87 billion years, since they are the same. That is called "eternity". It is natural, pleasant, peaceful and exciting.
You will travel instantly with a thought since distance and space are not.
Time, space and distance do not really exist, so you are already there. You need not travel. That is called "omnipresence" and it is one of your natural abilities and characteristics.
Omnipresence, omniscience and omnipotence are really not that difficult when you remove the veil of this grand illusion. You had a personal hand in designing and creating the universe, space, and the concepts of infinity and the finite. Life is but a dream.
The mysteries of the universe are only mysteries to a noisy an cluttered mind. Silence is the veil of God.
Are you starting to remember?

There are a few ways to answer that. The simplest is that there are an infinate number of 'things', both as mater and as energy, in the universe (which includes outer space) therefore the universe must be infinate to contain them all.
Then there is the question I could answer with: "Who say's that everything, especially life forms, within our universe are finanite? Ok, their physical forms die, but then the material of those forms are recycled by what ever environment they are in. Who is to say that the soul, the spirit, of the life form dose not either go on to some 'better' place (heaven, whatever) or be reborn into another form (reincarnation) thus making the spirit infinate.
As for all the inanimate stuff, well, it just morphs in to other things. Mater / energy can be niether created or distroyed they just morph from one to the other.
Ain't the Multiverse grand?!

The observable space is finite; we cannot see anything beyond 12 or so billion light years. Beyond the observable universe lies the totally unknown; and perhaps that is infinite; we have no way to see.
But your reasoning is not totally pertinent. An infinite space could conceivably contain an infinite amount of finite things.

the reason as to why outer space is said to be infinite is based on the fact that we have only explored and looked at a very microscopic part of the universe as well as since the universe is ever expanding and we cannot, at the present level of scientific knowledge determine the actual size of the universe.
To sum it up ... if u cannot give a perfect answer .. give a vague one.

this question has acually baffeled the scientists. maximum evaluate it to be finite and ever-increasing because it all started with the massive bang.no you may say if there exist different universes or not(subsequently the call, multiverse) too a lot hypothesis , too few solutions fairly

That's why it's called OUTER space, because it's beyond the finite!

Either the universe is infinite or it is finite. Either way, it is mind blowing.
