That almost becomes a philosophical question depending on what you define as "sky" and what you define as "endless"

Consider, what is the sky? Is it simply the area that we perceive as being above the horizon? Is it our atmosphere? Is it space?

One might argue that that since we consider it "the sky" when we see it's colourful shades during the day, and we also consider it "the sky" when we see the infinite depths of space at night, then the sky must not be a tangible entity but simply a region of our perception.

In that case, then the answer might be no. The sky has boundaries then, as it ends at the horizon. In that case, the sky might be thought of as an enclosed circle.

But wait - that's only if you consider the perimeter of the sky. If you consider it's depth as we perceive it then the sky is limited during the day, when all we can see is the blue haze of the nitrogen in our atmosphere, but limitless at night, when we can see in to the depths of space.

Even then though you might have a contradiction. Can we really see infinitely into the depths of space? Is space itself truly endless? Here we move into questions whose answers no-one really knows.

Is the sky endless?

Yes If by sky you mean the atmosphere, the answer is no. Compared to the size of the planet, the atmosphere is very thin, quite a bit less than 100 miles above sea level. You can see how relatively thin it is in a photo of the earth taken from far outside the atmosphere. If by sky you mean space, some think it is and some think it isn't. We don't know yet.


What is the depth of the sky?

The sky does not have a physical depth as it is the region of the atmosphere that appears above the Earth. In terms of human perception, the sky can appear to be vast and endless, with its apparent depth changing based on atmospheric conditions and visibility.

Is that a very bright star or planet in the southwest sky fom san francisco?

You are probably seeing the planet Venus, which is clearly - and brightly! - visible in the southwestern sky after sunset. Take a good look - for Venus is going to disappear next month! But it will be back. In its endless back-and-forth cycle, Venus is alternately the "Evening Star" as it is now, and the "Morning Star", as it will be after mid-April.
