Does the universe have a shape?
In short, no.
The universe doesn't have a defined shape for several reasons, however, it does have a general shape it resembles. The universe is round for the most part but not all angles are equally full so to say. There is a so called "center" and this is where the Big Bang occurred. After this event, all of the matter in the known universe was spread in a mostly even fashion at a particular speed outwards. This speed is constantly slowing however as gravity is causing the universe towards a possible "Big Crunch," where all matter will be brought back into an infinitely small point.
This means that the universe is mostly round, but has no true shape.

Based on a number of observations, including the cosmic microwave background radiation, the dominant cosmological model currently holds that the universe is flat. But as our understanding of the universe expands, this understanding may change.

When evaluating a one-sided limit, you need to be careful when a quantity is approaching zero since its sign is different depending on which way it is approaching zero from. Let us look at some examples.

- How does the Theory of Relativity relate to the Big Bang Theory?
- Alpha Centauri, the nearest star, is just over 4 light years away. Traveling at a speed of 2000 miles per hour (the speed of a fast jet airplane), how long would it take to get there in years?
- How do we know that galaxies farther away from us are moving faster than nearby galaxies?
- How is the size of the observable universe is calculated?
- At what speed is the universe expanding?
