It's hard to explain, but the universe is moving apart so fast that there are some stars that we will never be able to see. If you wanna understand then read a new scientist from awhile back.
Where do you get that? You can't go past the speed of light if you are mass because as you approach the speed of light, the energy required to accelerate you any further approaches infinity. At the speed of light, it takes an infinite amount of energy to accelerate you any further. As far as we understand, you can move as slowly through space as you'd like, you just won't get very far, and the chances of getting destroyed by a rock or planet are much greater than the chances of you reaching the "end of the universe".
