That's because the Universe really is expanding. It started as a "big bang", where all the matter and energy in the Universe was concentrated in a tiny space, smaller than an atom - at a tremendous temperature and pressure. From there it started expanding, and continues expanding to this day.

How red shift connect with universe expanding?

The expansion of the Universe results in the light from faraway galaxies being redshifted. This is called the "cosmological redshift"; it can be compared with the Doppler effect (which also causes a redshift), but the details are somewhat difference.It is an observed fact that most galaxies are redshifted; the explanation that seems most reasonable is that it is caused by the cosmological redshift. This means that space itself is expanding.


Will the expanding universe collapse?

That's a possibility; but the observational evidence shows that the Universe is expanding faster and faster - and it seems likely that this tendency will continue in the future. It seems likely that the Universe will continue expanding exponentially, doubling in size every 10 billion years or so. Thus, it doesn't seem as if it will collapse again.


How big do scientists predict the universe will become?

It seems it will continue expanding forever.


Will the universe ever begin to contract?

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.


Is the universe all expanding outward from one central location?

Wherever you are located, it seems as if you are at the center of the expansion.


Will there be an end to the universe just as it started with the Big Bang?

The end of the Universe will probably be quite different than the beginning. The Universe is expanding, and it seems obvious that the rate of expansion is increasing - it is expanding faster and faster. Therefore, it won't again contract into a tiny space, as was once believed.


The numbers of galaxies in the universe seems to be about?

We have no idea. Every time we invent a better telescope, we discover that there are 100 times more galaxies than we previously believed. There is no expectation that this will change any time soon.


There are how many galaxies?

Galaxy Theaters have locations across the west coast. Overall, there are 12 locations spanning over the states of California, Nevada, Texas, and Washington.


Which view of the fate of the universe is currently favored a big crunch or an endless ever expanding universe?

Answer: I don't believe that any consensus has been reached, although it seems that more people are arguing that a "big crunch" is more likely that an endless expansion into increasing entropy. But this is definitely a question that you should ask again in about 15 years. Answer number 2: The ever-expanding Universe. The main reason this seems likely is that it has been observed that the expansion of the Universe is actually accelerating - i.e., it is expanding faster now than in the past. Answer number 3 : I agree with answer 2. The discovery of "dark energy" and the increasing rate of expansion of space favors the ever expanding Universe.


The universe have a start and end?

The Universe is believed to have had a start, namely, the Big Bang. It seems that it won't have an end, and that it will continue expanding forever. However, a time will come in which there is no more available energy, and therefore, no life will be possible in the Universe.


The universe is made of only your solar system?

No. Our own galaxy contains several hundred billion stars (each of which might be a solar system), the observable Universe contains hundreds of billions of galaxies, and it seems that the entire Universe is much, much bigger than the observable Universe.


If the universe does not go on forever and could you fall out of it?

Universe in Size Given the open-ended observations of the high-speed "spread" of galaxies, it is possible that "space" is also still rapidly expanding, taking the associated mass every wider in distance. Unlike physical size on Earth, in the universe's case no one can even observe the "end". So the question is, for the present, unanswered. Universe in time Conservation of energy seems to be a feature of the Universe we know and this argues against the Universe ending without external intervention. The energy-mass constituting the universe is a constant, and has not been observed to change.
