Hi,
I imagine a very long rigid rod in space with length L.
I assume that the center of mass of the rod will be at rest with respect to the Hubble flow - is that right?
If I travel to one of the ends of the rod will I now see nearby objects that are moving with the Hubble flow move past me parallel to the rod with a velocity v = H_0 L/2 where H_0 is the Hubble constant?
