Dark Energy does not add any extra "space" to Space in a galaxy.
It does not add any (or very much) space between near galaxies. An example is the space between Andromeda and our own Milky Way.
It adds a massive amount of space when there is just about nothing but matterless space.
The question about Dark Matter ( not to be confused with Dark Energy, which I was just talking about) having the same weight against Dark Energy as Baryonic (regular) Matter reminded me of the total reboot that our textbooks underwent after the discovery of Dark Energy (1998). The assumption that the expansion of space was slowing down ( with all sorts of mathematical equations and formulas) was the subject of a big debate about whether Dark Matter + regular matter were slightly more or less mass/energy than a 100% "flat" universe.
The unknown cause of the Big Bang and the equally unknown driver of the (ever ongoing) creation of space was truly an interesting "Dark" period, in science, that got a brightening new day when Dark Energy brought a new dawn. The old textbooks are fascinating to read but I am in awe of the true darkness that existed in science before the discovery of Dark Energy.

Re: Dark Energy does not add any extra "space" to Space in a galaxy.
What was the force and/or field that WAS SAID to fuel the expansion of space , in, say, 1991? What was it? Was it momentum from the Big Bang?
We know about Dark Energy, now.
( And the scientific community was universally wrong to say that the expansion of space was slowing down, when in fact it was speeding up by leaps and bounds)
(I will limit my response to this issue, for now)

Does Dark Energy enlarge an atom?
Keep this issue here, in a separate sub_discussion within this thread.
Explain yourself.

Re: Dark Energy does not add any extra "space" to Space in a galaxy.
You combined my two separate issues, in a single response, which I told you not to do.
The "explain yourself" was about your statement that Dark Energy is beginning to rip atoms apart. I suppose the question will come here.
Question:
Since atoms already have much space within themselves, then what is Dark Energy doing to that space? What known force is competing with the Dark Energy "force" (if that is what it is, as opposed to a field)?
Is an atom actually enlarged, via Dark Energy, or is it simply moving around in a larger volume of space, while it remains the same size?
Are you answers snd/or statements universally considered certain?

Re: Dark Energy does not add any extra "space" to Space in a galaxy.
Earlier, you were asked whether Dark Energy affected Dark Matter and Baryonic Matter in a different way. You then went on to talk about how it pulled space the same everywhere.
You then said, just now, that it was probably an unchanging force, right?
But earlier, I made mention of the pre-Dark Energy discovery period, which considered the entirely of matter and space to be potentially able to close back to a singularity. So the expansion of space was tied to a theory that matter could be pushed together as the whole of space in the universe shrunk.
That possibility might be disproved, due to the discovery of Dark Energy, but you still have the (nearly) same history of the Universe starting with an explosion of space, which (due to whatever various inflationary forces separated the 4 known forces of nature - starting with gravity), and forced the later clumps of matter to separate ( but not the individual quarks, later atoms, etc.).
Back to your response.
You say you were just talking about space being created everywhere. But the initial question, from another, was about the knowledge that Dark Matter( probably full of it's own particles) contributes to gravity ( do you feel gravity has a field particle?) and whether Dark Energy has a different repulsive force on that type of combo.
You now want to say that you never intended to imply that Dark Energy did anything but create/expand space. It is all about Gravity and Dark Energy? Just 2 forces?
I guess I will just say, in the form of a question, "Just what Do particles have to do with it?"

Re: Dark Energy does not add any extra "space" to Space in a galaxy.
I still have a problem with the idea that concentrated matter ( like our Earth and atmosphere) does not counter the creation of space. I feel that space expansion can hypothetically be static. I just don't see why (local) matter does not stop it completely (in its neck of the woods)
Why am I wrong?

Re: Dark Energy does not add any extra "space" to Space in a galaxy.
What is the observational evidence that Dark Energy is constantly creating space between you and me?
I found, and then, lost a site that has scientists challenging that assumption.

Re: Dark Energy does not add any extra "space" to Space in a galaxy.
Before the discovery of Dark Energy, we heard constantly about how just a tiny percentage of matter, as a ratio of the whole of space in the Universe, would literally be able to pull all of space back to a singularity.
A matter condensed region of the universe, like our Solar System ( and throw in our Galaxy, though it is less dense) is more than strong enough to counter Dark Energy, right? (Keep in mind that we dont even know if Dark Energy is a combined product from multiple inflationary factors, be they forces or fields)
I would ask you 2 questions, but you admitted that there was no observational evidence on Earth for local inflation.
Question 2 is whether there is any inflation of space observed in our Solar System.
Question 3 is whether there is evidence of spatial inflation, from Dark Energy or whatever else, in our galaxy.

19 June 2018 Physics World covers the scientists who point out the averaging problem.
The title of article is Dark Energy Deniers but the title is somewhat misleading.
The issue of the Cosmological Principle is mentioned.
There are scientists who feel that the expansion rate is inaccurately measured due to using averages that are taken from looking at the expansion in vast voids.

Re: Dark Energy does not add any extra "space" to Space in a galaxy.
Repeat, since my post was short and targeted.
Your posts have been cluttered and misleading. You even seemed to bring religion into one recent post, unless I was mistaken.

Correction:
You not only brought religion into the discussion, but actually uttered "god" and then had the audacity to attribute it to me.
Despicable.
( yes, it was in post 42)

Re: Dark Energy does not add any extra "space" to Space in a galaxy.
So you went through all of these subtle slight of hands ( twisting my questions.twisting my words. then cluttering them), and you still are ducking the actual questions.
The questions are essentially whether or not we have actual evidence for expansion of space at the galaxy level ( and lower).
I know a direct answer to a direct question tends to trim 95% of words off your post, but that is your fault.

Re: 19 June 2018 Physics World covers the scientists who point out the averaging problem.
There is also the question of whether lumpy sections of the Universe see space expand like ithey do s in the vast void areas.
Back to the difference between space with particles and space without and the relative effects of the interaction with Dark Energy.

Re: Dark Energy does not add any extra "space" to Space in a galaxy.
Plenty of solid equations showed that space was affected by matter. Even to this day, with Dark Energy thrown into the mix.
Matter causes gravity to kick in. It not only slows the creation of space, but it can stop it enough to make it static.
And enough matter, combined with other factors ( such as the factors involved in space expansion), can c as ise all of space to contract.

Re: Dark Energy does not add any extra "space" to Space in a galaxy.
Then the evidence for creation of space in our Galaxy weakens.
And it is really relevant to a Dark Energy discussion.
Even the very existence of Dark Energy is based on assumptions. The biggest one is whether gravity has been correctly understood.
