For something to expand, It must have tangible boundaries that are growing. The ever expanding universe, thus must have boundaries. What is outside these bounds?

The universe is not expanding into anything. It is expanding in all directions simultaneously. This means that there is no boundary or edge to the universe.
Scientists have observed that galaxies are moving away from each other at an accelerating rate. This is known as the expansion of the universe and is supported by various measurements and theories, such as the redshift of light from distant objects.
The current evidence suggests that the expansion of the universe is infinite. This means that it has no end and will continue to expand forever. However, this is still an area of ongoing research and debate among scientists.
Based on current observations and theories, it is unlikely that the expansion of the universe will ever stop. In fact, it is expected to continue to expand at an accelerating rate due to the influence of dark energy.
As mentioned earlier, there is no edge or boundary to the universe. Therefore, there is no "beyond" the expanding universe. The universe is expanding in all directions, and it is not possible to determine what may exist beyond our observable universe.
