We are in the Milky Way.

Good question, yes im stoned. To determin this you first need to pin point the centre of the universe. Space being infinite and ever steadily moving an expanding due to the big bang never stops. How far out there it is, is currently out of our knowledge. meassure within time and space where the milky way is from the centre of the universe and this should give you an idea..... the truth is out there.

physical position, or place in time?
in time, that really dpends on how you look at it. you'd have to measure the half-life of the first atoms to predict when all matter will cease to be. I'd say we're probably in the second half of time's lasting. it started when atoms (normal, neutrino, etc) spread out from the center of the universe and spanned out forming galaxies, just as God planned it. there was nothing physical before the universe. it's expanding, so the universe has no definite size.
physically, we're in the Milky Way galaxy, one of the 6% of galaxies capable of possibly supporting life, in an 8 planet solar system, 92.6 million miles away from the closest star to earth, in between venus and mars.

As to our position in the universe,no one knows to a certainty although theories abound. As far as the galaxy - ours - is concerned,we are on the outer fringes of the debris field of which it is constituted,that is to say,quite far from the galactic center which is currently a kind of vacuum drawing debris toward it; it is a gravity well. We presume all matter will eventually move into this well and eventually become sufficiently compressed to trigger off another "big bang" - via nuclear fission resulting from crushed subatomic particles,in countless numbers. Thus our galaxy expands and contracts endlessly. We are where we are as the aftermath of such an explosion,so far as can be determined.

Wow! 5 questions in a row!! and all not really easy to answer. We are on planet earth and somewhere smacked in between the Sun and planet Pluto. For the rest of the questions, please check out the 1st. chapter of Genesis (Holy Bible) which tells of the creation of earth and what was before it and then get a science or astronomy book to check up on the size.
Just woke up this morning so still a little groggy and dazed to give you a more better answer.

On the outer part of a spiral galaxy, one of an infinite number of other galaxies, extending further than we can imagine. Maybe there's another universe adjoining ours and maybe all the universes and their galaxies are merely the molecules of a lump of sugar in some unimaginable giant sugarbowl. Just hope it doesn't get dumped in the giant's tea!

Believe it or not, each part of the universe is the whole thing. There are no separate "parts." It's like a holographic picture. There has always been eternal nothingness in which all existence reverberates transience so as to say "IT IS..... NOTHING".

Ever get sand in your toes? We are just one piece of sand in the whole of the beaches on the earth put together. One tiny itty bitty piece of sand is a whole universe. How many itty bitty tiny bits of sand are there on the beach. That sums up the universe.x

Currently, on planet earth on R&S. Middle. Big Bang (created by God?). Before Big Bang, there was...All. It is large enough to be endless.
Peace, Love, and Blessings

its like really big if you were a caterpiller and in its eye was a pupil and in the pupil was a tiny speck of dust and in that was a microsopic bacteria and the bacteria was looking at somthing through a tiny tiny microscope, think of how big our planet is compared to us and how big it must be to us sub-microscopic thing the universe is much much bigger than that.
basically its realllly big!!!
BIG dosnt even describe it
