They say the universe is exapanding.. For us that means that we are occupying more and more space.. But is there really an end to that space that we say we are expanding.and what is to describe the space outside our galaxies as not being part of us

Have a less confusing day

Ever heard of the term "infinity"?
That's like asking us to give you a term for the "value" of infinity.

1. I do not believe that the universe is expanding but that's another issue for another day.

2. I guess we'd have to first agree on what "universe" means before we get to the question of its expansion.

3. I cannot imagine that there's a limit to space. Like someone pointed out it's infinite. Space is just emptiness, nothingness. How could you possibly run out of that?
