Well, one component is expansion still resulting from the inflationary period. But now expansion has sped up. And nobody knows why.Why is space expanding?

Expansion isn’t the cause. Expansion was never the cause.Well, one component is expansion still resulting from the inflationary period. But now expansion has sped up. And nobody knows why.Why is space expanding?
It, of course, is. The rope is merely a line. 1D.1D model which isn’t a 1D model at all
Did you even read what I wrote?Relative to the Earth? False. Regions of the universe are, indeed, receding from us faster than the speed of light.Nothing is traveling faster than the speed of light.
As does the global scientific community. Surely you don't think this is because of hopes and prayers, right?You literally believe the reason that all objects moving away from all other objects is because space is expanding.
You asked why space is expanding today. And I gave you the correct answer. One component is "momentum" from the inflationary period. But most of the current rate of expansion is due to an unknown cause.Expansion isn’t the cause. Expansion was never the cause.
I’m almost certain that you are the only person who believes space expanding is a cause and not a consequence.As does the global scientific community.

Momentum of inflation? What does that mean exactly?You asked why space is expanding today. And I gave you the correct answer. One component is "momentum" from the inflationary period. But most of the current rate of expansion is due to an unknown cause.Expansion isn’t the cause. Expansion was never the cause.
Ding, these are simple, correct answers. You are tripping over yourself to disagree, which is silly.
I don’t believe I did ask why is space expanding today, FF.You asked why space is expanding today.
I’m almost certain that you are the only person who believes space expanding is a cause and not a consequence.
Are you fishing for the answer?
I don’t believe I did ask why is space expanding today, FF.
Space is expanding for the exact same reason it expanded in the first place.I’m almost certain that you are the only person who believes space expanding is a cause and not a consequence.

Did "for an unknown reason" give it away? Ding, stop prancing and dancing, you fancy little fuck. We don't know why space is expanding. Some of why it is expanding today is because of the inflationary period in the past (it has a defined time). And we don't know why that happened, either.
What gave away your fishing for an answer was your asking me if I thought it was expanding because of hopes and prayers while dodging the question.I’m almost certain that you are the only person who believes space expanding is a cause and not a consequence.

Ding: "Why is space expanding?"
Also ding: "I wasn't asking why it is expanding today."
Okay. Glad that's all cleared up, now. Moving on...

Okay. And the reason is?Space is expanding for the exact same reason it expanded in the first place.
I clearly am telling you that we don't know the answer. You really need to get past this.What gave away your fishing for an answer was your asking me if I thought it was expanding because of hopes and prayers while dodging the question.
Irrelevant. And I claim no such thing. Try to stay on topic. Or, just read and maybe learn something.You seem to claim quite some knowledge of cosmology.

Neat!Irrelevant. And I claim no such thing. Try to stay on topic. Or, just read and maybe learn something.
There is no need to be rude.
I was simply asking if you where formally educated in Cosmology, astrophysics or any other science dealing with related subjects.
The creation of space and time started as subatomic particles occupying a very tiny space in nearly equal amounts of matter and antimatter. This is not a steady state system. As the matter and antimatter annihilated each other, the resulting energy released from that interaction provided the energy to accelerate the remaining matter which quickly coalesced itself as hydrogen and helium and began forming cosmic structures which continued on their paths.Okay. And the reason is?Space is expanding for the exact same reason it expanded in the first place.

That's why the universe is expanding? I'm not sure what you meant to say, there.The universe was created with nearly equal amounts of matter and anr
Okay. But you can accelerate matter all day, and you have not expanded space. One nanometer of space expanded to 10 light years of space in a tiny fraction of time.As the matter and antimatter annihilated each other, the resulting energy released from that interaction provided the energy to accelerate the remaining matter which quickly coalesced itself as hydrogen and helium and began forming cosmic structure which continued on their paths.
