Now, it is not expanding as quickly as the universe, and it will not expand for all eternity, so I'm not sure if my analogy is a great example, but you get the idea.

(BTW I am not a scientist, I am a high schooler. If I am wrong on any of this, please let me know. Don't try to take my word as fact until you do the research your self.)

*edit: You would also be able to measure the volume of an expanding balloon at any given time. Don't know why I said just mass.

I mean, all of that is true and logically sound. However, I prefer the sort of logic found here: https://xkcd.com/605/

If I have a cat, and it grows, and my only experience of the cat is it growing, I can infer the cat will grow to monstrous sizes.

I love logic!
