We don't really know that. Let's suppose the universe was really 4D. We don't currently know if the universe is flat or not. A curved universe can be both unbounded and finite which would be very elegant.

Einstein proposed a test to find out. I'm hoping this test will eventually be Gravity Probe D (Probe C will be a repeat of the failed Probe B).
