ok i thought the space outside the balloon would have to be infinite for the balloon to keep expanding

what confused me abou this is how can up down left right be said to be dimensions, what's the different between them if there is no edges?, could you also say that a north north easterly direction is a spatial dimension. where do the dimensions up and right meet?

if the circle expands this means the notches are further apart from each other than they were before the expansion took place. The size of the first circle when the tiny notches are at equal distance from each other but closer together in relation to the expanded circle would be the center of...

im pretty sure i understand what you're saying but i see the center as the point at which the points on the balloon are closest, that place still exists regardless of whether there is stuff there or not?

yeah that was how i thought of it, the point may not be special but it would still be the place everything started moving away from as i guess area of empty space or whatever it is it will not move

yeah that's pretty much why i could'nt get my head round it. I still can't understand how everything could be moving further apart from everything without moving away from a particular point though. If everything is getting further apart this must mean that at one time everything was closer...

all points can be moving way from each other from no central point but all points in relation to their previous positions could be, the point would be the center of the inside of the balloon all points would move further away from this point as it inflates. Also if space wasn't infinite it would...

ok due to an extremely limited knowledge of stuff like this. big bang theory states that all the galaxies are moving away from each other and from where the big bang occurred? this is completely hypothetical but what i mean is say light from the sun takes 8 minutes to reach Earth and it moved...

Hi I'm 16 this is my first post here, something just struck me, I know nothing about physics and a lot of things but I guess this is the right place to ask this kind of thing and I'm intrigued to know what peoples thoughts are on this... If it takes 90% of estimated time to see the earliest...
