Which strikes me as preposterous, or at least unfalsifiable. Maybe the measurements are shrinking instead?


Finite but unbounded, or so I hear. The recursive Dodecahedron is consistent with Simulation Theory.
I believe that the James Webb Space Telescope will be able to help folks better study the expansion via the red-shift of the light, as 'sources' speed away from the observation point, and space itself continues to expand, and expand at an ever- quickening pace.
When I watch programming, I kinda comprehend what the physicists are saying, and soon after, it's just so much 'mush.'
With all the 'expansion' going on, gravity is still powerful enough such that our Milky Way and the Andromeda Galaxy are expected to collide in the distant future.
