hmmm. interesting thought.
but if the universe were a sphere, would we be on the inside of the sphere or the outside?
if we are on the OUTSIDE of the sphere then it would indeed be infinite, because we could travel for a certain distance and end up where we were. but that would only be possible in 2 dimensions, as in if we could only travel left, right, forward or backward.
however, the universe is 3 dimensional, because you can travel for an infinite distance in any direction (left, right, back, forward, up and down). which would bring one to assume that we would be on the INSIDE of said sphere. but if we are on the inside, then there would be a physical limitation to the size of the sphere, which would mean the universe is NOT infinite, and raises the question, "what's beyond the universe" and thus opens another can of worms.
thoughts?

the physical universe is not infinite because there are places that exist that are not physical.

If it is not infinite I would say that it would be egg shaped. Oh.. the implications.

I always assumed the universe was either infinite and therefore shapeless, or a perfect sphere. Any of you well-educated people care to inform us what modern physics theorises?
