Default Galaxies expanding with space? The Space Stretch

Either the galaxies are moving through space
or space is stretching out inbetween them.

What does the space stretch do to the
space's geometry?

Space stretch geometry?

its not stretching , rather expanding,so geometry remains as it is

Didnt you like the answers you had last time.

Ask a new question.

Space stretch geometry?


Why do you think this is wrong?

Expanding inbetween?

Growing inbetween?

Looks like stretching to me!!!

Can you see it? Which way is it stretching?

what is the geometry of stretching space?

What do you mean by "stretching space?"

IIRC the expansion of space was not a stretch, more an increase in the
distance between large scale structures.

And, once more, in order to understand what the
current best answers are to such questions, you
would need to understand the basics of general
relativity. Have you done this?

Don't you look down at me jackass

Just put up *the answer* or shut up!!

What's the stretch?
Geometry and dimension...

And, still again, in order to understand the answer,
you would have to understand the basics of general
relativity. Have you done this?

See, I'm not about to try to teach you what typically
takes a full eight months of university effort, usually
at the fourth year level. There really is no point in
talking to you about cosmological solutions to the
general relativity equations if you don't know what
the GR equations are, what solutions to them mean, or
what a cosmological solution is.

Do you even know what a metric is? Or what a curvature
tensor is? Or what a geodesic path is? Really, it's
hopeless to try to answer your questions if you don't.

You are like a little child demanding to understand
how the television works, but can't accept that it
requires a great deal of understanding of electronics.
Well, if you want more understanding than is available
to a little child, you have to learn more than that
little child.

But I'm not holding out much hope.
