This is a simple question but i keep finding conflicting answers and don't understand scientific and mathamatical language well enough to consult reliable data.. 'Cause I'm a dunce.

So, is EVERYTHING outside the local group leaving us, or are some things in the virgo supercluster contracting? For example, is M81 coming or going?
