Hey guys. First off, I'm no physicist, so forgive my ignorance if it
applies.

I've been asking myself this question... If the laws of Physics
dictate that nothing can travel faster than light, how can objects in
the universe be so vastly separated? Did it not take a faster-than-
light instantanous expansion to get celestial objects and galaxies to
where they are now? Take galaxies, for example, which are millions to
billions of light years separated from one another. How long did it
take for these galaxies to become so far apart? Wasn't the rate of
expansion faster than light at some point in the distant past?

I don't know, it seem to me that space exploration would be
completely impractical using methods at sublight speeds. It would
take millions of years to even reach the nearest galaxies.

You will need to get your head around a concept named the metric
expansion of space.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metric_expansion_of_space

The space in between two objects expands. The objects themselves are
not moving rather the space is getting bigger. <snipped rest of bull***>

ROFLOL!

I will sell it to you very cheap!
