An edgy universe?

In current times, many scientists depict a quandary of whether the universe has an outer edge. Many images on the universe suggest no uniform edge, as in a distinct coin edge.

How would one interpret this for the presence of time if it is not uniform at the outer region? Would time flow be interrupted, would it be faster as if a void, or uniform, or slower? How does time assist with formation or morphology so far away, and are we sure? May be it depicts the nature of development in a thinning universe. How would the passage of time out there be accurately depicted and would it contrast with what we experience on our planet?

It is currently said the universe unfolds from a pattern since hot inflation. This pattern indicates some thinning out, large voids not material aggregations. Might not sound like the same thing in some ears. Why the gaps?

How is it that the outer reaches have or show stellar or galactic activity, especially in a universe that is believed to be thinning out? Perhaps time isn't playing the key hinge role out there. Perhaps the future of the universe is depicted otherwise at the outer regions.

This is not to discount that many scientists believe that the outer regions retain the very early elemental development of the cosmos which may have since blown outward. How does one explain then the presence now found of gaps, voids that may depict that early stage?

But it is a very irregular edge as far as developments go. It is depicted as ragged not smooth. Why is it like that? Is there no uniform application or pattern that applies out there as it appears to closer to us? Could this be that the galactic activity congeals and as the mass reaches a certain density, it arbitrarily projects itself onto space without a distinct preformed pattern? This may be a way to generally address the apparent hit and miss nature of the outer region rather than assuming an organized, preordained system. (Do falling leaves litter in a preset pattern?)
