I understand the explanation you've given, thank you. However it is my understanding that a perfect vacuum has never been created. So isn't an absolute void without basis in observation? All of our observations on light take place within a massive medium of some form. Our conclusion on light...

That's the real issue, there has to be mass in those "voids" we see Galaxies on the other side.

I'm sorry thrust may not have been the right word. The idea was not that the Galaxy is actually moving but that there is more matter in the form of gasses being put between the Galaxies

Excellent point, will have to think on this for a bit, thanks for the input!

If we look at our own solar system, our sun is pushing gasses outwards as solar winds. Our Galaxy has what around 100 billion stars? All which most likely follow suit expelling their own atmospheres outwards as solar winds. The ratio of stars being born to stars dying is something like 350:1...

I'm new to the forums. Physics has always been a major interest of mine, thanks for having me!
