Hi,
This is the first time I've visited your site so I hope this
question
is properly submitted. I recently watched a program about the oldest
observed object. It was estimate that the nebula was 12 billion light
years away, meaning we were see it as it was only 2 billion years
after the beginning of the universe.
My question, assuming the big bang and relativity are correct, how
could
an object move 12 billion light years away in the 2 billion years
since the beginning of the universe?
I find this quite puzzling and would appreciate a simple answer or
a
referral to a web site or something that could explain this.
