If we follow the gravity theory of the earth going upwards, would we not collide with stars eventually?

The stars are being accelerated also
If you can't argue both sies, you uners!and neither

What causes this acceleration? =-\

And into what are they accelerating?

This is not an valid answer to my question, I asked into what are we accelerating, I did not ask into what direction are we accelerating.

I'm not sure if the universe is expanding in FET. 

I warn you not to be so keen to dispute dark energy for the gaping hole that it is, because in reality, the universe is expanding at a non-uniform rate, and this acceleration is put down to dark energy, which can't be properly explained.  So don't make a fool of yourself like I did by disputing the dark energy idea for all it's worth  ;)

Or Einstein's first guess may have been right, and the cosmological constant existed... Really, this is becoming quite the scientific forum, as I'd guess most people on here have a good deal more knowledge than most people.

Dark energy is theorised by theoretical physics.  This completely goes against the "I have to see it" philosophy of FEers.
I haven't performed it and I've never claimed to. I've have trouble being in two places at the same time.

I think it's a safe bet that most people who spend any time here have a deeper understanding of physics and astronomy when they leave (if they ever do).  It's actually one of the reasons why I commend this site, whatever its initial motivation might have been.
Where did you educate the biology, in toulet?

How would I know?  Obviously there's been enough space for the Earth to accelerate through so far, and hopefully for at least a long while in the future.

Will you hold hands with me?  I don't want to go through with it alone.

I have nothing against the idea. Question is, when? Better get the binoculars out, see if we can see it yet.

Maybe this could be an "end of the FE" theory, the idea that eventually the earth and universe will hit the cosmic ceiling.

I wanna know how the stars are moving in a helix.  Unless dark energy got bored and decided to make things more interesting
