how the limit of space can be defined,if someone say it is up to the length of universe,them wouldn't there be space outside the universe where it ends?,
similarly,if someone say time started 15 billion years ago when big bang occured,then what was there 30,60 or 100 billion years ago,i mean what is it's limit?

Well space has a limit. The limit is how far the universe has expanded. The limit on space will be the ends of the universe. There is nothing outside of the universe. As far as the question of time starting 15 billion years ago that is when science thinks it started. There was nothing before that. No time, no space. I bet you are thinking that if there was no time before 15 billion years ago and no space outside of the universe, then how did the big bang happen in nothing. That is a question that you will not answer. Don't spend your whole life thinking about it. You won't answer it!

It is possible that the universe existed, in some other form, before the Big Bang. However, it is impossible to observe such a time and, I would think, nearly fruitless to speculate on it with any results.

Also, the Big Bang is the origin of space *and time*. Space and time are linked and intertwined. Going faster in space means going slower in time. A common retort to "what happened before the Big Bang" is "what is north of the north pole?".

If you're talking about the "edge of the universe", there might not be an edge. The universe may dimensionally wrap around back into itself, producing the effect of a seamless continuum of cosmos that will get you back to the place you started if journeyed into space on a straight trajectory.

The Universe can be imagined as a gigantic sperical bottle which contains a fluid. This fluid can be likened unto water. and all mass
structures including ourselves would be the fish swiming in the water.And we try to swim to the edge but because it is so vast we are never able to get to it by natural swiming means. And we are not able to see the edge of the containment.Now what exists beyound the bottle would be eternity where time is infinite. However the relative time inside the bottle would be like one trillionth of a Nano second. And the period of our biological life would be infinitesimally microscopically small.

the question you should ask is how u limit space and time. Can we limit them? do you put a ruler at the end of universe and say this is the end? would u say alrite "This" is the end of time, when by the time u say "end of time", more time has passed. Another question you should ask yourself is why are you asking this question? its no use finding the answer. Historian discover history like dinosaurs and they found out how they became extinct.This helps us in preventing our own species from becoming extinct, like shooting a rocket to blast any incoming asteriods. But what do you seek to understand and derived from questioning the limits of space and time?

Time and space are finite entities,some time in the past they did not exist and some time in the future they will go out of existence The universe is a self contained entity the will run it's course and come to an end.

Your objective is fairly unrealistic: in case you attain 1000 registered customers, it is going to already be a success. yet I wish you luck! So, right this moment, do not trouble: take hostgator (document impediment) and save all of your pages, articles etc in database. In some months time, you'll make your determination and regulate server in case you want to.

There is no limit to space and time it is infinate. Time for example, still goes on after we are gone Just because we are not here to measure it does not mean it stops.
The same with space, just because we have no answer to it's capacity does not mean it doesn't go on for ever and ever.

There is no limit. To understand eternity both past and future you must stop thinking in linear terms. (meaning point A to point B) We as humans think of time as a line with a start and a finish. Only when we realize that time is really a circle with no starting and stopping point can we understand how it works. Time is one eternal round. Tomorrow is yesterday, yesterday is the future and the future doesn't really exist. Get it?

the only answer i can give you for your question is "these things have no limit". telling you about time is really very difficult but oyu come to know more about the space in the future when something new is going to be found out

"The limit of space and time is determined by the totality of perceptions. Without perceptions there is no space nor time."
