The matrix ends there
Why is "the edge of the universe" in WNOHGB so different compared to regular space?

Just empty space with zero matter of any kind I'd imagine.
I do find it interesting that the edge of the universe basically looks like a giant bubble bath.
Bubble baths are supposed to be soothing. Maybe that is where everyone goes when they die... to the edge of the universe in an eternal bubble bath.

There is nothing; just space.
Maybe not even space?
But in this case, i wonder what the glowing objects are. Looks a bit like the spores in DSC.
Maybe they are where dreams come from.
There's nothing there. That's why it's an edge.. of something vs nothing, and in an expanding universe even more theoretical. I know Star Trek physics are mostly just malleable fanasy-plot-points but unless they want to embrace the idea of Hubble-spheres abutting other somewhat different Hubble spheres, i don't see what they could do with it. They havent' really even properly spent time in anothe galaxy yet.
We've seen space-born aliens in "Galaxy's Child", I wouldn't doubt there's many in Messier 33.
Still looks scary to me, you guys are just too tough to be scared of the unknown.
It's easy to be tough from the point of view of our armchairs!
What if in the end of the universe another universe begins?
I think bubble baths are fun for the first 10 minutes or so. Less fun after 4 hours. So the thought of spending eternity in one doesn't really attract me....
Boy you know your Galactus origins and Yog Sothoth too!

Sorry but I may have to google those....
I think I'm familiar with the word Galactus but that's it, I don't know anything more about it.
And Yog Sothoth, what's that. =).
I've always assumed the 'unknown void' seen in the episode was a vortex at the centre of the Galactic energy barrier! If not then why show the Enterprise leaving the edge and returning to reality from the same scenes in WNMHGB and By Any Other Name? Plus the theme was running towards the edge of the galaxy unlike Day of The dove where they never actually reached the said barrier!

No probs. Galactus is the Godlike entity that feeds upon planets in the Marvel universe. He was first seen in Fantastic Four #48 as a giant being who comes to earth in need of hunger using the Silver Surfer to find and identify said worlds upon which he can change into energy before feasting upon!
Yog-Sothoth is a cosmic entity created by H.P. Lovecraft that comes from the universe before ours existed and has total mastery of time and space in the continuums! He is part of the Cthulhu mythos!

After a little bit of google action I found out that I have come across Galactus few decades ago when my friend introduced me to Marvel comics.
H.P. Lovecraft is a familiar name to a Metallica fan (in this case, me), their songs 'The Call Of Ktulu' and 'The Thing That Should Not Be' are inspired by Lovecraft's work.
