the boundaries are equal to this:
(d*i)/(t*i)
which means we are screwed, because infinity divided by infinity equals zero. Eventually, (before we find a way to probe the ends of the universe), the cosmos will return to zero, or most likely, singularity. Really it's all one big paradox. The universe could keep on going forever with boundaries equal only to it's own existant outer measurements, or it might retract under the forces of gravity, only to be as relatively meek as those of us who look from within.
The real question should be, "What are the boundaries of the observation of mankind?" Looking for the boundaries of the existance of the world we live in is more futile than trying to find the reason we exist in the first place... unless of course you believe God created us to worship him.

I can't give you an answer that would be absolutely true for reasons easy to understand.
A number of respected scientists believe that our universe doesn't spread out for ever. They also say that our universe has an ovoid shape, since matter spread out in all directions equally after the Big Bang but afterwards not all the matter in space has the same speed and also you have to take into consideration the black holes.
They say that when you reach the edge of or universe there is nothing. The term represents all that we cannot see, observe or prove there. That does not mean that once you reach the edge of our universe you can't find anything.

There are no boundaries, because the universe is infinite space... The universe is constantly expanding.. Actually it is speeding up in expansion... Eventually the universe will expand so far that molecules will separate and decay on their own... In other words they universe will simply disappear...

u know that universe is bounded by the event horizon!! 1) we call observable universe and 2) unobservable universe.

well the average person cant even make it to the top of everest so i guess its safe to say the boundary would be the edge of our atmosphere.

One theory is that as you approch the edge you will curve back on yourself. Paradox as there can be no edge per sec.
Other idea is that the universe is never ending outbound.

There aren't any. Although the universe is of finite size, it is unbounded.
