However within say are gallaxy there is stuff between stars so space isn't created between stars and thus they don't fly away.
Let me just simplify this for you: gravity counter acts the dark energy / gravitational constant.

I wouldn't go so far as to say proven. There is still much more they will have to do to really prove it. I'm sure the data could indicate other possibilities too. It is however very intriguing. Maybe the Big Bang created all the multiverses at pretty much the same time, all just "vibrating" at slightly different levels so they can effect each other but only slightly where they sync up in their vibrations. Kinda like cross over points. You can't really see them themselves just the traces they leave behind them.
I've read the the further a stellar object is from the big bang start point (however they figured that out), the faster it is accelerating. Almost as if it is being pulled towards "something". Maybe dark matter has something to play in all of this.
I'm not an Astrophysicist so please someone correct me if I am wrong on things. Pretty heady stuff, that's for sure.edit on 20-5-2013 by pavil because: (no reason given)edit on 20-5-2013 by pavil because: (no reason given)

/ravity has nothing to do with it in fact its been proven here on earth and we have plenty of gravity its caused by a vacuume.
I keep banging on about on it on here but if we imagine space itself to a quantised superfluid vacum which exhibits Bose Einstien Condensate properties we have a very good model for what could be happening. Space itself is the ultimate reality (space is just a quantum soup of everything in various phase changes dependant upon localised variables such as temperature, density, originating velocity etc etc.) Space can be densley packed ( i.e the quantised units of space are placed under some environmental pressure which forces them together to form a quantum singularity (i.e a black hole) or alternatively it can be loosely packed which tends to make up the massive majority of the volume of the Universe.
It is true that galaxies and even clusters of galaxies tend to remain the same size even as space is expanding. This is not because the space inside the galaxy fails to expand, so much as because gravity pulls the galaxy or cluster together.
I discussed this recently in another forum. A very good technical discussion is available in The influence of the cosmological expansion on local systems,
by F. I. Cooperstock, V. Faraoni, and D. N. Vollick, in Astrophys.J. 503 (1998) 61 (astro-ph/9803097).
Basically, the effects of cosmic expansion can really only be detected at scales beyond that of our galaxy. On smaller scales, bodies are in constant motion under forces of gravity that hold them together against the expansion of the space in which they are embedded. The space still expands, but bodies move through space under the influence of gravitational forces to maintain the same separation to within the bounds of measurement.

There are a few questions I would like to pose that directly pertain to the original topic of this thread.
Where doe gravitational potential energy come from?
Do inertial and structural mass diverge?
Why is the matter wave frequency defined by twice the classical kinetic energy?

I was saying that the gravity of mass counter acts the vacuum energy (aka dark energy / cosmological constant). The reason the space inside galaxies doesn't really expand is because of the mass in the galaxies like you said in a haphazard way, but more precisely it's the gravity of the mass which effects space in the opposite way that the vacuum energy does.

I think it depends on your definition of universe. In common usage the universe is the totality of all existence

I've been thinking this lately and the only thing really in the universe is Stars.
Just endless amounts of Stars that form other things but that's pretty much it..

So gravity is sort of the cause but its negative gravity that only occurs outside of galaxies because quite frankly inside galaxies there’s dust and particles everywhere. Ill see later if i can find a visual to help me explain.

You just said what I said backwards. I didn't say gravity causes it the expansion, I said the negative energy does because it creates a force like negative gravity as you just said. Normal gravity inside the galaxies helps hold the galaxies together despite the expansion which happens between galaxies, that's what I was saying.
