Are you guys painting yourselves into a corner? I think so.
Sam, when you say, "cannot see", you're presuming no EMR can
be received from Galaxy 1 to 2, yet Hubbles constant only red shifts.
We shouldn't find them moving at relative speeds greater than "c",
otherwise toss out SR and the Conservation of Mass-Energy Law,
as has been already done.
The Hubble constant tells us how fast space at a
given distance is expanding away from space at our
location. The matter in space moves along with this
so-called "Hubble Flow". This is why we say that
space is expanding.

Relativity does not place constraints upon how fast
regions of space may be moving with respect to
each other, only on how fast anything may move *in*
space.

Space beyond about 13.7 billion light years in any
direction is moving away from us at greater than c,
so light from anything past that distance will never
get here. That is our 'cosmic horizon'.


Why do people seem to assume that the 'answers' to the
grand questions of reality are to be found in an extreme?
Either quarks or quasars so to speak.

Hasn't it occurred to anyone that just the opposite is true?
That the answers are to be found in the critical interaction
between the opposite extremes in possibility?
That the best 'lens' of all to understand reality is a mirror?

Figuring out what the underlying rules are is next to impossible if
you're looking at the hugely complicated set of interactions visible in
a mirror.

It's better to find out what the rules are for simple things, and work
from there.
