→‎gravitationally bound and unbound objects: difference between bound & unbound
Line 230: Line 230:

::::;:::::::The earth and moon are bound objects whose distance apart is relatively unchanging in an expanding universe, whereas the earth and unbound object K, measurable at a distance of light years this evening, will be at M light years + 45 miles x 60 seconds x 60 minutes  x 24 hours tomorrow evening at this same time?  [[User:RobSmith|Rob Smith]] 01:22, 31 January 2012 (EST)
