HOW THE UNIVERSE WORKS

Observational evidence leads me to conclude that our “local group”
of 40 or so galaxies orbit what is now the quiescent center of the
universe, and since all the trillions of other galaxies are expanding
away from us, I am led to further conclude they all came out of said
center at various times more than 13.7 billion years ago, and orbit
the center just like us, only at speeds exceeding escape velocity.
Simple centrifugal force then, is the “dark energy” powering the
expansion.

They are not expanding uniformly away from us. We have non-trivial
~300 km/sec velocity wrt the Universe at large. No "center" is
visible in that direction either.

The ancient church will be so happy that you are now proselytizing for
them.

Better take this all up with Ptolemy. I think his name is on it, and
it is now in the public domain.

DWH "Various times" would imply non uniformity. "Quiescent" implies

theres nothing to see.

No, it does not "imply", since the entire Universe is constrained to
orbit "us" FTL. And our local group's components are not static...
Andromeda is coming right at us, and the Magellanic clouds (and more)
are moving away. "Orbitting" makes this motion more problematic.

There should be something to see, a center.

No center. Motion still away from "us", (more or less) uniform wrt
"us", not some mythical center.

DWH. Thanks for responding. Since we see no red or blue shifts

regarding the rest of the local group, Andromeda has to be orbiting
faster than the rest of us and is already above escape velocity, and
when it's projected to collide with us it will long ago have left the
local group. This idea is also copyrighted but I might give you a
small chunk of the prize

DWH. There might be the Mother of all black holes there.

No center.  Motion still away from "us", (more or less) uniform wrt
"us", not some mythical center.
DWH When I say "us" I mean the entire local group, not just the Earth

or Milky Way. The distances involved make it very difficult to
document any proper motion.
