There is no "edge" of the universe. But if you mean the edge of the OBSERVABLE universe, then that is about 46.5 billion light-years = 1.732 ×10^28 inches.
Things that are "now" at this distance, 13.7 billion years ago emitted light that is just now getting to us. Since then, they have moved further away (or actually, the space between us and them has grown larger.)
