Does the universe have borders?
The universe does not have an edge or border. Just like the surface of the earth has no edge.
What is beyond the border of the universe?
The universe, being all there is, is infinitely big and has no edge, so there’s no outside to even talk about. The current width of the observable universe is about 90 billion light-years. And presumably, beyond that boundary, there’s a bunch of other random stars and galaxies.
Does space have boundaries?
THE theory of relativity tells us that observable space may not be infinite in extent, but it does not postulate a boundary; “finite but unbounded” is the usual phrase.
Whats at the border of the universe?
It is the cosmic microwave background radiation that is evident from all directions in the universe. This is the “wall” through which we can’t see further. It is a wall in space-time, emanating from about 400,000 years after the big bang when the universe cooled sufficiently to allow light to pass freely.
Do we know what lies beyond the boundaries of the universe?
Unfortunately, since we can’t see it or measure it, we don’t know what lies beyond the bounds of the observable universe. However, we have several theories regarding what exists in the great unknown. Despite its strangeness, this first idea is one of the easiest to digest.
Is there anything beyond the universe?
Cue the door analogy, which we’ll be chasing forever. So the answer to the question “if the universe is finite, what lies beyond” is that there is nothing beyond the universe because the universe represents everything, including things “outside” of it.
Is the border of the universe moving further away from US?
Furthermore, the universe itself is expanding at an increasing rate, which means that the mysterious border is moving further away from us. A radio signal from earth would technically never be able to reach the edge, even if it traveled towards the edge for an infinite amount of time.
Is there a bigger universe outside of our universe?
Each of these phenomena may contain a universe much like our own. And outside of our universe might lie a much bigger universe. We’re merely confined in a black hole inside of it. Another theory suggests that the not yet observable part of our universe contains more universe. Nothing else.
