Lloyd, the Standard Theory (big bang) presentation of the abandoned Steady State (since the 1927 discovery of the expanding Sylpher-Hubble universe) depicts a spatially expanding universe, where the occurrence of physical systems 'thins out and dissipates with the passage of time'...

Consequently disqualifying the proposed Steady State of Bondi, Gold and Hoyle... (Which does not present a dissipating universe, but rather, one that remains approximately the same density, past, present and future...)

But, when the physical systems themselves are enlarging (omnidirectionally accelerating from their centers - from sub-atomic particles to everything constituted of them), then, the premise that the universe ('inevitably') 'thins out' is compromised; by the accelerating expansion of matter itself.

Yes, I mean that the density of the collective universe - the physical contents of space - (consequently) remains 'relatively' the same.

The physical contents of the universe were more dense in the past, than they are in - when compared with - the present, and will be less dense in the future, when compared with the present.

Whereas, there is not any greater or lesser amount of physical matter - it's the same amount of energy, increasingly distributing itself over a greater area of space. Squared.

This is how there can be ongoing expansion (omnidirectional acceleration) in what is still an ongoing steady state universe.

The cause of the proposed expansion of matter is no more mysterious than the (hotly debated) cause of the expansion of space; which has recently been observed to be an accelerating expansion; notably corresponding with Einstein's 'abandoned' Cosmological Constant repelling force (a previously unknown force which becomes greater with distance) - now unabashedly retrieved from 'retirement' and referred to as 'Lambda Cold Dark Matter <LCDM>'...

Improvised by the big bangologists to patch up their formerly single-centered (non accelerating) big bang; which is transforming - 'evolving'/'adjusting' - into a hybrid steady state (by any other name), via the Cosmological Constant ('Dark matter', 'quintessence', et al), with no acknowledgment or recognition of the omnidirectional acceleration of matter itself... Why all these poker faced contortions to maintain 'the big bang' school?

'Because:
"obviously, matter is not expanding".
