Rather, it's that space itself has been stretching--a difficult concept even for a physicist to grasp, but which must be true according to the equations of relativity. Cosmologists say you should imagine the universe as a balloon with dots painted on its surface. As the balloon inflates, the dots will get farther apart--not because they're sliding around but because the balloon is stretching...
