Rather than the universe expanding from some central point which is beyond
our 3 dimensional existance, is it not more corerect to say that space
itself is expanding? Isn't the distance between characters on this dislay
getting greater all the time (although imperceptably)? I understand that
not all galaxies are moving away from ours, in fact some are approaching
at a considerable velocity.

With regard to Ed Nather comments:- 4 dimensions? ... are you counting time?
