Is it possible that things in the universe are shrinking rather than moving away from each other?

Hypothetically Let’s say everything lost 1% of its size/mass/energy every 12 months. From our perspective, because everything was shrinking we wouldn’t notice but if all of the objects were in a finite space it would appear that the objects were physically moving apart.

The smaller everything got the faster that expansion would seem to be happening. This seems a good explanation for the mystery of why the expansion of the universe appears to be accelerating against the known laws of physics.

Every marker aimed at Polaris is still aimed directly at Polaris. Pyramids, etc. Every star in the sky will be exactly where it was exactly one year ago, never changes. We have no idea what is up there, but the Sun, Moon and stars act like a Swiss watch which suggests we live in a created place. You also couldn’t have gas pressure next to space without our atmosphere getting equalized. There would need to be a barrier. All of those things I mentioned are generally understood and personally verifiable. That’s what I go with.

We have no idea

Spacetards will never give it up. You want to carry a phaser and go warp speed. Good luck with that.
