"The expansion of the universe isn't like that. The universe is not an object; it doesn't "take up space". It is space. As it grows, it doesn't mean that there is less space for objects; it means there is more space for objects. Nothing needs to be displaced to admit its expansion." --Physicist
True enough...although I *would* like to hear some more about in how many dimensions (4, 10, 11, 26) spacetime could (or could not) be expanding, based on observations like these. Some of us need a little extra help in connecting the dots to know if observations support, preclude, or leave open those possibilities.
