As a child or adult, one question that have definitely aroused in everyone's mind is "Is this universe infinite or it has some boundaries?" as a science or astronomy student this might be the first question to arouse in students mind. Coming back to the answer of this beautiful question- The observable universe is still huge but it has limits. This is because we know that the universe isn't infinitely old - we know that the big bang occured some 13.8 billion years ago. So from this we can conclude that the light has had only 13.8 billion years to travel and hence defines the limitations of universe. All we know or scientists believe is that universe is still far above from our observable distance but at some point it has limits for sure.
