    So from wherever you look, the universe is expanding away from you (I.e., other things in it move away from you).

    Therefore, you can see that the universe doesn’t have a centre. From this and some other a bit more complicated things, one can see that the Big Bang never had a single point but rather expanded everywhere at once when it happend. Although often called expansion from one point that is wrong.

    Also technically you would need to give a time dimension as we live in 4D space.

      Wouldn’t that be the case even with a center?

      No. The only logical explanation is that I am the center of the universe!
