This is partially true and partially incorrect. :ehh:

It is true that the space between objects can expand faster than the speed of light if they're far enough away. So there are some galaxies we can see that are far enough away that you could never reach them even at the speed of light. The part that's not true is the part about an edge. As far as anybody knows, there is no edge in the first place.
True. I was speaking hypothetically. Basically if there even existed an "edge", it wouldn't be able to be observed anyway. So the only correct answer to OP question has to be no.

It's something I can't wrap my head around....by "space" i'm referring to the darkness in which the planets, galaxies, etc occupy....I don't think we'll ever know just how far that goes....because it begs the question of what "space" is the darkness occupying...

Now as for the Universe expanding...it's been doing that for approximately 14 billion years (according to modern math) since the big bang ...but that refers to "matter" not the blackness. But the blackness existed prior to the big bang...so the question is...where did that come from, how long has it been there, who put it there...and what "space" does that occupy. It's something I think we're not even suppose to understand or is beyond human comprehension.

you need to research dark matter

Got another theory. What if the sun is the nuclear reactor moving the planet's through space in a sort of circular orbit like nasas UFO spaceships? Satellites aren't going further into space, the milky way is just moving throughout it.

Are you referring to the Sun’s gravitational pull on the other planets?

I did maybe a little bit Physics PhD with maybe a little bit Astronomy and in an conclusion we don’t know sh1t

There are maybe a little bit so many theory backed by so much BS it’s an system/world of bullshyt rules justifying, tweaking to explain more bullshut

One such theory is that the edge of universe is like Pac-man game where if you go out the edge of one side you just come back in through the other opposite side :guilty:

The universe is expanding at a speed which is impossible to discern, therefore, it appears by all human measurements to be infinite

This is incorrect :ufdup: it's actually been measured. Space is actually known to expand at around 70 km/s per megaparsec. :ehh:

A megaparsec is about 3.3 million light years. So something (say, a galaxy) that far away would be moving away from us at about 70 kilometers per second. The further away something is the bigger that gets, so there's a certain point where that value gets to be greater than the speed of light, which would mean you could never reach the object.
