In what direction is the universe expanding?

Happy new year to all alien life forms.

Where here, we have plenty of crops available to make out a circle.

If ET wants to talk to our leaders, if it wants to mind meld with our most populous species, then it needs to conference with our insect life.

Thank you for the astronomical pics GZ. They are breathtaking!

Thanks Silver I hope the Tigers brings you some joy in 2025.

Hi Generalzod, any chance you will get any pics of Comet C/2024 G3 (ATLAS) ?

@Generalzod, can I put in an order for Saturn and it’s beautiful rings?

I haven’t had time lately bad weather not a lot of clear nights lately.

I was hoping to get outside to see it tonight myself. Typically for Perth, as soon as there's something to see, we get the rarer sight of a cloudy night and can't see anything.

Yes, no chance of seeing it Sydney either last night with the wild weather.

I'm not sure I'll be around in another 160,000 years when the comet comes back again. I'll try, though..!

I was going to ask @Everlovin' Antichrist or anyone else who is astronomical.

So Hubble said the whole show is expanding and the expansion is speeding up.

I was trying to work out where they said it started relative to our Sun?

Also, is the acceleration a constant or do different chunks of the universe go faster?

Also, If we accept the Big Bang, how could something come from nothing? Surely there was something at the start of the mess?

It just doesn’t make any sense to me that a couple of atoms or whatever just materialises from the void.

I know stranger things have happened like the signing of Packer for $850k, and I’m not putting up anything creationist, but I’m a tad uncomfortable with this explanation.

Any insights appreciated.

Thanks.

@The Silverdale Phantom
Mate I've always been amazed about the universe (not galaxy) in that there is no start or finish imo. Well there is when your at the start line in a race because it is a fixed point and a moment in time and its all relative on earth isn't it?
But my question is, how can you say something happened in space when it has always been there and it never ends. If you had the ability to fire a lazer that would never hit anything nor lose its strength, then it would go on for eternity....it wouldn't do a big circle and come back and rejoin itself like when you travel around the world. There is no end....is there?
