Mr Jack Writes
The expansion of the universe is not primarily due to movement, but to the expansion of space itself. This expansion is not limited by the speed of light.
A fascinating implication of this is that the more distant galaxies which would appear to be receding from us at a speed in excess of the speed of light would eventually fade from observation, and the logical extension of this is that there are presently galaxies that we cannot (nor will we ever) be able to see, because the light travelling from them cannot keep up with the expansion of space and will thus never reach us.
