We can now see galaxys & stars near what we think is the start of time/big bang, or closer to it than we've ever seen.
Do you think we'll ever find the edge? Or are we still so primative that the "edge" might be like columbus's "edge" of the world in understanding?

The edge is moving away at the speed of light (if you construe "the edge" as a wall of photons generated at or near the original Big Bang. It would seem to follow that that "edge" is what physicists sometimes call the absolute unknowable: totally irretrievable data.
