Yes, the whole universe is expanding rapidly and so are the galaxies within it.
expanding
It means that the light from galaxies is losing energy. The only reasonable explanation for this is the cosmoligical redshift - that is, that the Universe is expanding.
Galaxies in the expanding universe are moving away from each other at speeds proportional to their distance, with more distant galaxies moving faster. This phenomenon is known as the expansion of the universe.
Edwin Hubble was responsible for the concept of the universe expanding.

The expanding universe model predicts that galaxies should be getting farther apart now. This is based on the observation that the universe is expanding, with galaxies moving away from each other at increasing speeds.
This should be because of the fact that the Universe is expanding. You see a blueshift when objects move closer to you. Other than super distant galaxies, most galaxies will not measure to be a blueshift due to the fact that the Universe is expanding and accelerating.

Yes ...why.. well there is a theory that once the universe was as small as a match's red head? i don't know what it's called what ever...so when that bead explodes and it expands. and scientists believe that it keeps expanding. Another question you should ask your self is if that the universe was that small what was around it? answer it cause i wanna know and hope this helps!
