I doubt the universe is "expanding" but rather is just very large and there are multiple big bangs occurring all over. As light shifts to red over distance, it eventually fades into the background radiation that we detect in every direction, meaning there were big bangs far away from us in every direction. Those "old" well developed galaxies we now see are perhaps older galaxies from other big bangs - if we did come out of one big bang from one spot we likely will never be able to see anything close to that since we have been thrown out from a point, and material was thrown out in all directions, so the furthest away stars and galaxies from our big bang will be developed already. Even if our big bang happened 13-14 billion years ago and we happen to look right at the centre of the explosion, we may see stars heading in the opposite direction that are now 26 billion light years away, but that doesn't mean they are 26 billion years old, they came from the same explosion as us, so we would be seeing them at around the same level of development as us, it just takes that light longer to reach us than stars that were thrust out perpendicularly to us, or more or less along our trajectory. All other stars and galaxies we see in other directions are more than likely from other big bangs, especially those galaxies that are heading towards a future collision with one of ours. There's no way objects going outward from one point in space would ever be able to change direction and "mingle" later - think of a grenade shrapnel - it goes out in a straight line, so if other shrapnel hit it, it must have been from a different grenade going off nearby. So if we don't start grasping the idea that the universe is so inconceivably large that multiple big bangs have and will continue to be going off all around us, if we stick to the "we're the only bang in the universe that started everything in it" theory, we'll always be stunned by these new discoveries that cannot be explained until you see the bigger picture.

It seems to me that our perception of the Big Bang is still Earth centric and d has been informed by the technology we have available to view the universe and that the universe, if it even has an age, it’s much older than we can see.
@sharrykitz9231
The expansion model of the Big Bang suggests that all matter came from a central point at one moment in time and then expanded and is always expanding forever. We are seeing the light from far away galaxies but not necessarily an older galaxy. Would occupants of a red shifted galaxy not see us the same way from their own similar instruments and make the same claims of our age?

Models, theories, maybes, whatcha thinks.... 🤔🤷
@bretthamilton7248
Also, if the big was an explosion that expanded outward in all directions and we haven’t found the origin point of the explosion than the universe is more than likely 2-3 times as large as we think it is.

Nice to know or need to know? Worth billions of dollars?
@bretthamilton7248
There are obviously some flaws in one or a few theories. Do galaxies form faster than we thought? Is the measurement of the age of the Universe biased toward our limited technology? Was there really only one big bang?
