Is the speed at which we observe distant galaxies moving at, since it is said that further galaxies are moving away at greater velocities, due to spacetimes curvature and our obsevational point?
IOW, is the space between galaxies expanding at the same rate?
I hope my question makes sense...
Take a rubber band and draw 7 dots on it, equally spaced apart. The middle one represents our galaxy while the others represent other galaxies. When you stretch out the rubber band, the dots that are farther from the middle one move farther and faster away from the dots that are closer to the middle one even though the rubber band is stretching by the same amount across all the dots.
The distance and speeds are compounded by the space between our galaxy and the nearest one and the distance between the nearest one and the farther ones.
Make sense?

Yes.
