, 01:38, February 1, 2012→gravitationally bound and unbound objects: is the earth going to crash in to the sun someday?
::::::::::::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 L 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?

:::::::::::::It'll be at L plus 45 miles x 60 seconds x 60 minutes x 24 hours tomorrow evening at this same time, yes. Nearly 4 million miles farther away. The distance between us and the Sun in 23 days, and accelerating because more distance means more expansion. --[[User:GeorgeLi|GeorgeLi]] 02:52, 31 January 2012 (EST)
