Yet this seems to contravene the idea of an ever constantly expanding universe, and accelerating expansion at that.
Yet this suggests that gravity defies the expanding space.
That's a good description. So gravity holds galaxies together. In each galaxy are stars held together by the force of gravity. So, the idea of an expanding universe is only relevant to the space "in between" galaxies then?
Everyone must read his stuff.http://www.cellularuniverse.org/Th9(ajaaR)CosmicRSTheory-Ranzan.pdfRanzan – 2014 -- Cosmic Redshift In The Non-Expanding Cellular Universe.
Distant spiral galaxies, very very distant, and thus presumably the oldest we can see, hold the same structure as our own closer galaxies
redshift is due to the stretching of photons as they approach mass & the stretching of photons as they recede from mass
but there is an equal and opposite blue shift as they enter a gravitational well.So, a photon entering and leaving a gravitational well does not experience an overall redshift.
