Space itself is expanding into nothingness. Nothingness has no characteristics at all, not even location.

Spooky, no?

Agreed. We think of “space” being an object, when in reality, it is the lack of something. The universe can expand, because it expands into an infinite nothing. Also, the idea that the basic law of physics is incorrect by asking the question: “If the universe came from the Big Bang, were did the material for the Big Bang come from?” Nothing cannot become something, per se.
