What is meant by the edge of the universe where velocities reach the speed of light?
Cosmology FAQThere are a number of concepts put together in this question. By edge of the universe cosmologists mean the edge of the observable universe or the horizon. Just like on Earth the fact that you cannot see past the horizon doesn't mean there's nothing past there! (See the next question for more details.) This edge is equivalent to the distance light can travel in a time equal to the age of the universe.

What is the Universe expanding into?
Frequently Asked Questions in CosmologyThis question is based on the ever popular misconception that the Universe is some curved object embedded in a higher dimensional space, and that the Universe is expanding into this space. This misconception is probably fostered by the balloon analogy which shows a 2-D spherical model of the Universe expanding in a 3-D space. See similar questions...

Does the universe have a center?
Cosmology Primer: FAQNo. Our observable universe looks basically the same from the point of view of any observer. We see galaxies moving away from us in all directions, but an astronomer living in any one of those galaxies would also see all the galaxies (including our own) moving away from them. In particular, the Big Bang is not an explosion that happened at some particular point in space; according to the Big Bang model, the entire universe came into existence expanding at every point all at once. No. See similar questions...
Is our universe the only one, or are there others?
Cosmology Primer: FAQHopefully you won't be disappointed if we say that we don't know. There are different kinds of "other universes" that one could reasonably imagine -- other regions of space that are very far away and look very different, or regions that are separated from our own by extra dimension of space, or different branches of the quantum-mechanical wavefunction of the universe. These are all profound ideas which we won't discuss in detail here. See similar questions...
What does "edge-grain" mean?
ChoppingBoards.ca - Hand crafted chopping boards, cutting bo...These boards are constructed using strips cut from wider sections which are then placed on edge and joined together. Mostly vertical (straight) grain lines are visible along the length of the wood. Edge grain construction makes a hard and stable surface. It is also a cost-effective alternative to end grain construction. See similar questions...
a. What is the Outer Edge, and how long does it take to get there?
Common Questions about diving & snorkelling - Silver Ser...The Outer Edge is the where the continental shelf ends and deep ocean begins. At the Outer Edge the ocean floor drops from 30 – 40 metres to 100s of metres. Ribbon reefs are situated on the edge hence the name the “Outer Edge”. Silverswift (max speed 28 knots) cruises at 25 knots and takes 1 hour 15 mins to Flynn and Milln reefs. See similar questions...

What is Edge Calibration and how does it work ?
Customer Support -- FAQMost printers that produce borderless prints trim off parts of the edges of printed images. If you are printing just one print then you usually do not notice this. If you piecing together multiple prints in order to create a larger panoramic image or poster then it becomes much more noticeable. It can actually ruin the way that a poster looks. The Edge Calibration procedure in Digital Camera Poster Creator lets you easily measure the amount of edge clipping that your printer is doing. See similar questions...
Why does everyone in the universe seem to speak English?
GateWorld - The Stargate FAQThis is an unfortunate byproduct of having to tell a story in less than an hour. Just think if Daniel had to spend time every episode learning the aliens' language, or teaching them English! It's a sacrifice that the producers make in order to tell a new story on a new planet every week, and actually have alien characters who someone can understand. See similar questions...
What does Donnie do to save the Universe, in detail?
Stainless Steel RatDonnie's objective, through manipulation by the dead version of Frank, is to stop the engine travelling back via the corruption. Instead he opens/creates a wormhole back to the past. He does this via telekinesis and his power to create water (the fourth dimensional construct) as it is stated in the Philosophy of Time Travel these are some of the powers of the Living Receiver.

How can the oldest stars in the Universe be older than the Universe?
Frequently Asked Questions in CosmologyOf course the Universe has to be older than the oldest stars in it. So this question basically asks: which estimate is wrong - Both The age of the Universe is determined from its expansion rate: the Hubble constant, which is the ratio of the radial velocity of a distant galaxy to its distance. The radial velocity is easy to measure, but the distances are not. Thus there is currently a 11% uncertainty in the value of the Hubble constant measured directly by the Hubble Space Telescope.

Does the CMB have a center or an edge? If so, where is the center and edge?
Questions by e-mailThe CMB is just a uniform sea of photons, which are left over from the hot early phase of the Universe. So I'll assume that this question is essentially the same as asking about the properties of the Universe as a whole. See similar questions...
