[sarcasm]The universe can't be 15 billion light years across if the universe is only 6-10 thousand years old.[/sarcasm]

We don't even know for sure if the edge is at 15b LY away. That is just how far we think it is.
It would be a blessing if they missed the cairns and got lost on the way back. Or if
the Thing on the ice got them tonight.
I could only turn and stare in horror at the chief surgeon.
Death by starvation is a terrible thing, Goodsir, continued Stanley.
And with that we went below to the flame-flickering Darkness of the lower deck
and to a cold almost the equal of the Dante-esque Ninth Circle Arctic Night
without.
The prevailing belief at this time, is that the universe has no edge. This link describes it in simple terms.
But of course, nobody really knows. So theoretically, one could fall off the edge of the universe, the same as one could fall off the edge of the flat earth.

If you believe the latest myth, an observer would bang his head against the cosmic wall or have his head burst because there is nothing there. The same thing would happen if they trravelled towards the centre, because there is nothing there, not even void. LOL!.
On a realistic note, the observer sitting on the outer realms of the created universe would see fully formed galaxies, not expanding anywhere.
I reckon, In the other direction an observer would likely see void, that being empty space.

Mazzy,
It's generally accepted that when the universe was created, matter, time, and space were created. So, space can't be outside the universe, can it?
