Since the "adjacent galaxy" is also in space, my point still stands.

There are well accepted theories that would not agree with this.

If space is expanding (BB), every part of space is moving relative to every other part.
If space can be distorted (GR), parts of space move relative to other parts.

If a specific galaxy may be said to retain its location, every galaxy may be said to retain its location in space. If space is expanding, every galaxy must move away from every other in order to remain in the same location in space.


There never was nothing.
