Scientist: “The universe is finite.”
Normal person: “When you reach the end of the universe what exists beyond it?”
Scientist: “?”

Physicists have a mathematical model of the universe mostly validate by test results that does not yet completely predict the behavior of reality so all they have is theories, not facts.

the Cosmological Principle. This states that, on large enough scales, the Universe is homogeneous, or ‘smooth’, in all directions.

Have these people never made corn bread or cement for that

Who pays people who’s “job” is to defect ginormous arcs of galaxies? Us, taxpayers or some private lovers of astronomy? What are the benefits of those earth-shuttering discoveries to the mankind?
