I personally agree with infinite space. What happens at the edge of the universe? A black wall? No way.

If the Universe did have an edge what is beyond the edge (and that is a common question put to scientists but they cannot say).

In my view, there cannot be nothing. The universe, if it has an edge, has to expand into something and that something is more space (remember, that's just my view of it).

I cannot prove anything, no-one can, but it seems pretty obvious that something cannot invade an area without an area being there to invade.

This is one of those debates that has lots of scientists saying dozens of theories and not one of them can prove anything, yet they stress over it.

I'm quite happy to know that space is out there, and we can look at it with a few bits of metal, plastic and glass from our humble little viewing spot here in our piece of the Universe. If it runs out, so be it. If it goes on forever, all the better.

Unlike Paul's problem, I DON'T want my head to hurt. I'll just accept space as space, and you can bet your bottom dollar that some ding-a-ling's going to come along and bring up the tired old comparison about a Flat Earth Theory.
