Re: Question
What happens to this line of thought if we discover a galaxy that is say 12 billion light years away that is headed directly towards us (the Milky Way) or directly to where we (the Milky Way) are/is headed?

Re: Question
Well, the reason I ask is because I have a hunch that the universe is actually infinite and that the galaxies (and other things) are not moving around in any direction that is pre-disposed by the big bang. I'm not saying it didn't happen but wondering what the notion of thought would be if we were to find a galaxy doing this.

Thanks for those responses. I get some of that and will need to cogitate and investigate some of the rest!
