Hubble did not conclude that the Universe is expanding. Hubble thought the red shift indicated a unrecognized principle of nature. Hubble's constant actually shows the universe is bounded at R=150kMpc/31 and H= c/R = 62km/s/Mpc. The increase red shift velocity indicates a decreasing universe.
Redshift, when the light of an object is moving away from you, the visible light shifts towards the red spectrum.
Edwin Hubble, after whom the Hubble telescope is named.
Edwin Hubble, in 1930, was the first to show clear evidence that the space within our Universe is expanding. Not surprisingly, it is now called "Hubble Expansion."
It happened in the center of the universe, for which it is still expanding on the universe.
Nobody Knows. Even if we travel at the speed of light we still would die before we got to the end of the universe. Everybody says the universe is expanding, but what is it expanding into?
All the available evidence strongly indicates that the Universe is, indeed, expanding.
It doesn't seem so. There is evidence that the expansion is accelerating (the Universe is expanding faster than in the past). The reason for this is still somewhat of a mystery; do an Internet search on "dark energy" for more details.
The answer is that the expansion of the universe is only noticeable over distances of hundreds of millions of light years or more. Over the much smaller distances found within galaxies and planetary systems its effects are negligible.
Yes, and the expansion is accelerating - it is expanding faster and faster.
The evidence - for example, from the redshift, normally attributed to a Doppler effect - is that indeed, the Universe is expanding.

It is not exactly expanding into anything. The galaxies are moving apart from each other, from which we can infer that the universe is expanding. Theoretically, this is a result of the Big Bang, in which the universe began when all matter was compacted into a very tiny sum, and then exploded apart in a very big bang, and as a result is still expanding today.

In the immediate aftermath of the "Big Bang" there was rapid inflation of the universe. That slowed and the universe is now believed to be still, slowly, expanding.
There is no evidence that our GALAXY is expanding. Are you confusing the word galaxy with the word universe - if so they are NOT the same thing.
It is because the Universe is expanding.
Yes. To be more exact, it is "space" within the "observed universe" that is expanding. A confusing fact is that many astronomers believe the universe as a whole may already be infinite in size. This doesn't stop them saying the observable universe is still expanding. "Infinity" is a tricky idea.
From an infinitesimally small point to the present size, the universe is still expanding as a result of the big bang.
