Recently, scientists have established that some very far stars in our galaxy are not only not being attracted by gravity and slowing down, but rather their speed has increased.
What this tells us: There are other galaxies we know nothing about.
Lots to write about, distance from us / Civilizations in all forms “war & Peace etc.”
How quickly is the Universe disappearing from our reach?
Because of dark energy, distant objects speed away from us faster and faster as time goes on.
How long before every galaxy is out of reach?
