<p>It came to my mind one day that why does this universe even exist and why do we even exist and like we are enclosed in the so called atmosphere and a floating rock in space called the Earth, so is there any possibility that the universe is also enclosed in something and if it is, then what is outside that enclosure?</p>

I doubt we can ever answer *why*, but for your last question, you might like to look up the [cosmic light horizon](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Particle_horizon)
