Hey, are you going to tell us how “the expansion of space” works?
Does “old space” stretch, or is “new space” added to the old space? Tell us how that works. |
Perhaps a Graphic will work. |
You haven’t “expanded space”. Your last white background page is just as wide as your first one. My computer screen didn’t “expand”. All you did was add some extra = = = characters with your keyboard. What do you think we in the “general public” are, a bunch of idiots?
Stop conning us and give us a FULL SCIENTIFIC explanation of how “space expands”. |
I AM in The General Public, thank you very much.
How about I just show you the Example my Professor gave us in Science Class Last Year.
Code:
*=*=*=*
Distance Between Individual Points = 1
Total Distance Between End-Points = 3
*==*==*==*
Distance Between Individual Points = 2
Total Distance Between End-Points = 6
*====*====*====*
Distance Between Individual Points = 4
Total Distance Between End-Points = 12
*========*========*========*
Distance Between Individual Points = 8
Total Distance Between End-Points = 24
Notice, each point moves away from its neighbour at the same rate, however, the further away a point is, the Faster it Appears to Move. |
Excellent. What you’ve described is the basic mathematics of the separation of particles in an explosion, with the particles moving apart in all directions in a spherical manner from a Euclidean center. Their start speed is the same as their end speed in your diagram, if you go with this sequence 1:3, 2:6, 3:9, 4:12, 5:15, 6:18, 7:21, 8:24. And I don’t think your professor has any justification to go in an accelerated sequence. The Hubble expansion has different speeds at different distances but not acceleration. You have not shown any “expansion of space”. You’ve shown the movement of galaxies “through” space. This expands the “spatial distance” between the galaxies by means of the movement of the galaxies through space, but it does not “stretch space” or “add any new space” to the space in-between the galaxies.
This is what you’ve described in your chart, but without the acceleration, and this represents the basic Hubble expansion:
