yea so it randomly came to what if you build something so fast you drove it out of space because as far as I know space isn`t infinite so if you got out of the universe what would it be like would you just fall for ever or be just floating in whiteness.

Anyone understand what Im saying

Well, the universe is infinite.

Hypothetically.
It's ever-expanding, which means if it does go on for infitity then at this current moment its expanding farther than infinity?
It doesn't matter anyways because we will never know.
The farthest object in space our satellites have seen was something like 400 mega-parsecs or something.

Is that like 400 miles? That's far!

Thank Wikipedia.


Parsec

just under 31 trillion kilometres (about 19 trillion miles), or about 3.26 light-years.

Megaparsec

a million parsecs

Also, according to Wikipedia the edge of the observable universe is about 46.5 billion light years away, even if we are seeing space how it was 13 billion years ago.

You wouldn't drive out of space. Well, this is just confusing. In my knowledge, it would be impossible to build such a craft.
