There Is an Edge to What We Can See & Nobody Knows What's On the Other Side

Books: Our Mathematical Universe, Max Tegmark: https://link.amazon/B01jikJFc The Fabric of the Cosmos, Brian Greene: https://link.amazon/B03rj0pUy A Universe from Nothing, Lawrence Krauss: https://link.amazon/B01F67Pbr I've always wondered if there's an actual edge to the universe, like, does it just stop somewhere? And if it does, what's on the other side? I figured I'd look into it. And the answer keeps getting weirder the deeper you go. Because it isn't just "we don't know." It's that the harder scientists look, the less the universe seems to behave the way it's supposed to. We built the most powerful telescope in human history, the James Webb pointed it at the farthest thing we could possibly see, and what came back broke the model. Galaxies that shouldn't exist yet. Stars that formed before they were supposed to. And a universe that's expanding faster than the math says it can. Something is wrong with what we think we know. And what's on the other side of the edge might be the reason.
