The most interesting thing is that the further away you look is also the further back in time since it took that light X years to travel here. So if there was a big bang and you looked far enough away you would just see the point of light that started it. Meditate on that for awhile and see what conclusions you come to. =]

Besides, I suspect if you did see past the edge of our universe, you'd just see another universe.
