No.
It's like asking "What is on the outside of the inside?". It doesn't make sense.
This isn't to discourage philosophy on the subject, but it should be known that science does not deal with intangible things such as no-space. The best answers coming from science, to the best of my knowledge, involve finite structures that "wrap around" to create an infinity. This is similiar to the balloon analogy. We can travel in any direction at any speed on the surface of the balloon and at no point can we claim a central location or an end point.
Since almost all of our information about the universe is based on light signals, we can never hope to know the truth at the "edge" of the universe. It's simply inaccessible.
