This is a strange universe,

with everything exploding out from that point,

moving away only from that one central location.

But actually it's not like that.

If you went to a distant galaxy,

你还是会见到同样的景象

They would look at all the galaxies around them

观察到周围所有的星系

and see that they were moving away.
