Well not really, assuming light is the fastest thing in existance and we call the edge of light 'the universe' (what its expanding in to is a mystery for sure ) then since the universe is around 360billion years old we can assume that the universe is around 360billion lightyears across and increasing by 1 lightyear (5,878,625,373,184 miles) per year.

There is something else in the universe that is making it expand...

Dark matter and dark energy.... the more the universe expands the faster it expands. Light is just one form of energy that travels through space
