    1 vote for shrinking i hope we find out one day that beyond the edge of the universe. We are inside a man that works as a Supermarket Cashier that looks a lot like a young Martin Short.

    If we were shrinking galaxies that are further away would appear to move away from us at the same rate as closer galaxies. That is not the case. The further away something is the faster it moves away from us. This is very well explained by an expanding universe. Us shrinking doesn’t fit the observations.

      This was a challenging one. Sorry, I just enjoy enjoy going down these thought rabbit holes. So the only thing I could come up with is if there were areas of localized shrinking the light furthest away from us has a higher probability traveling through these zones.
