1) Because the universe is expanding at a far greater speed than we can possibly travel.
2) It is so far away that we can never hope to reach it even after billions of years of non stop flat out travel.

The idea in one of the articles above that argues we are like a 2 dimensional ant searching the edge on a beach ball is most agreeable.
What is outside, how is outside is just unimaginable because everything we do to get there will be a part of this universe{(thinking about) looking outside the universe or attempting to travel beyond the edge of this universe}.
