Trying to explain the topology of the Universe is really complicated... for humans. But it clearly comes naturally to Zogg the Alien from Betelgeuse.

How we could travel in one direction and return to our starting point, never bumping into the outside of the Universe.

What is the Universe expanding into? Nothing, it's just expanding.
