Cosmic Expansion is a star on the Constellate sky: placed by meaning, named, and connected to the stars around it. This is the short form of its post: the line it carries, the area we colour Physics, and what stands beside it today.
The line it carries on the sky: Galaxies are not flying apart through space; the space between them is stretching.
What stands beside it
The stars nearest to it are Gravity as Geometry, Light as a Clock, Spacetime and Spectra as Fingerprints. When Cosmic Expansion opens, the conversation will land it among them, with a line drawn to each idea it touches.
Ask for this star
Every star is lit by demand. Ask for Cosmic Expansion and it moves up the list; when it opens, this post becomes the full essay. The open stars beside it can be walked today, and the first concept of every course is free.
