That still doesn't work, as we'd still be detecting an order or direction to the expansion.
Code:
A B C
Point source
X Y Z
A B C
Point source
X Y Z
i.e. Distances between A-X, B-Y and C-Z are not increasing as do the A-B, B-C, ... distances.
Again, I do not believe this matches observation. |
I think you are missing the point. But I do see yours ... you are saying that there is a plane that is tangential to the gravitational source where we would see distant galaxies not moving away from us. However because of the limitation of the speed of light this plane would make this plane difficult to determine. Now I think we would have also moved away from it if you take the angle of light that was shown from that galaxy.
If there was no speed of light latency ... then you would probably be right ... but the fact is that we would be pulling towards the gravitational source thus pulling away from where the light that is hitting us now but released way in the past.
