I imagine that the universe goes on forever. That it is a continuous space. Why would it end? How? What would be the reason for the edge of the universe if there is one? And wouldn't there be something beyond that? Doesnt the universe include "all"? No matter what?

I think the Universe is Infinite...so it would boggle the mind to know the TRUE size of the Universe.

A lot -- but all based on what we know :)
I've seen with my own eyes a quasar (a very distant, active galaxy) that's over 2.4 billion light years away. I regularly look at galaxies that are millions of light years away -- when the light that hits my eyes in my telescope left those galaxies, there were still dinosaurs walking the earth. How cool is that? :)
The universe is a big place -- but a lot of it is accessible to see. Go look at it sometime...

Think about the distance between two stars then think about how fare it is to the area of space where nothing is out there and it's all black. Then size won't matter.

It is a total mystery, unimaginable, UNTHINKABLE, undefined or you can say it is a magic(if you think deeper). where science fails to describe. If we think universe has end, then what's beyond that end point. If we think that something is holding the universe then what's beyond that something. Now you can't think more. At a point where, your thinking stops.
