What is the universe expanding into?

imagine an infinite sheet that spans the x-y plane in our space. if it expands such that any two points double their distance between one another, fine. the infinite sheet expanded. did it expand “into” anything? no.

So are you saying the universe is infinite?

The universe is just a one-dimensional entity that flashed in and out of existence. The only reason we perceive it as large and with time is because we live inside it. An outside observer wouldn't even be able to perceive the universe at all because it exists for no amount of time and occupies no amount of space.

Not expanding into anything, the distance between the furthest points in the universe is increasing.

Anything beyond the outer perimeter of the universe doesn't actually exist and cannot really be considered "the universe" or a thing that is being expanded into

It’s not expanding into anything. The scale of the universe is growing metrically. “Outside” of the universe is a meaningless and incoherent concept since “outside” refers to a relative position in comparison to something else.....in space.

There is no "outside" the universe to our knowledge. Observers, at least as we know them are physical objects with the ability to measure the impact of matter(in the general sense) on them.

Universe is a false vacuum expanding into a true vacuum. Don't @ me
