Yes you mean the multiverse. It is a theory put foward that we once thought that there was only one sun (but there are many), and then we once thought that there was only one solar system (but there are many), and then we once thought that there was only one galaxy (but there are many). So there could be more than one universe and our universe is just one bubble of many universes. Each one with slightly different natural laws.

A multiverse (or meta-universe) is the hypothetical set of multiple possible universes (including our universe) that together comprise all of physical reality. The different universes within a multiverse are called parallel universes. The structure of the multiverse, the nature of each universe within it and the relationship between the various constituent universes, depend on the specific multiverse hypothesis considered.
Multiverses have been hypothesized in cosmology, physics, philosophy, theology, and fiction, particularly in science fiction and fantasy. The specific term "multiverse", which was originally coined by William James, was popularized by science fiction author Michael Moorcock. In these contexts, parallel universes are also called "alternate universes", "quantum universes", "parallel worlds", or "alternate realities".
The possibility of many universes raises various scientific, philosophical, and theological questions.

i dont get your point. every heavenly body is a part of the universe. so it consists of all the things so the question does not arise. according to our scientist universe is the collection of all the planet stars etc. i hope you got the point. so if there is another universe it comes under the universe already present.

It is quite possible that there could be other universes beyond our universe.

There is only one universe,it's a finite entity that will one day go out of existence.

we know that our universe is expanding every second (big bang theory)
so it can contain any no. of heavenly bodies and more universe
we r aware of just a bit of this

there is no evidence for it whatsoever
but its a possible prediction of some unproven theories of pysics
at the moment the honest answer would have to be no, not as far as we know

Proving that to be true is [possibly] some of what we are all alive for.
