Like a Big Ball of Play-Doh
Think about play-dough. If you roll it into a ball and stretch it out, it still looks like one big piece. But maybe there's more play-doh hiding behind the edge, just waiting to be discovered! That’s kind of how scientists think about the universe. It might look like it has an edge, but there could be more space or even other universes beyond that.
