Because of the general expansion of space, all distant galaxies appear to be moving away from Earth, with speeds that increase with distance from the Milky Way Galaxy. What would an observer in one of these distant galaxies see?
A) same thing as seen from Earth: all galaxies moving away, with more distant galaxies moving faster
B) all galaxies moving nearer, with more distant galaxies moving faster
C) all galaxies moving away, with closer galaxies moving faster
D) all galaxies on one side of the sky moving nearer and all galaxies on the other side moving away, with more distant galaxies moving faster

The principle of the expanding universe is universal, meaning an observer in any galaxy would see other galaxies moving away from them, with the speed increasing with distance. This is a consequence of the metric expansion of space, not a motion through space, and it applies no matter where the observer is located in the universe.
