“These disturbed areas which are discovered to demand 3-Dimensions of Space indicate the position of the electron; yet we cannot state that the disturbed area is the electron. Because any such locality has a tendency to spread, and if the matter of the universe were a number of disturbed areas, by now it would have spread indefinitely."

"What drives the expansion?"
I don't know what drives the expansion, Greg.
I can only observe with the Standard Theorists that everything seems to be expanding - the difference being that I accept the experimentation and the mathematical confirmation,
and follow through with it, while the status quo is flash frozen on the rejection.
There is no conflict with the law of conservation of mass energy, insofar as it is the same amount of energy, distributing itself over an increasingly greater area. Densities remain relatively stable.
As for why, it seems that matter is found doing this, so far, without any explanation of 'why'. Maybe we could say that the partial vacuum of space draws matter ever omnidirectionally further out. Maybe it's a 'Why does the chicken cross the road' kind of a question...
Incidentally, in 1959 and 1970, my published and internationally distributed work,
predicted the
*acceleration of the *1996 observed expanding universe. The stack of reports of the acceleration of the expanding universe continues - ever since - to grow higher. I based my prediction on Einstein's (abandoned) cosmological constant (increases with distance), which has since been unabashedly recovered and desperately purloined (refer 'Lambda Cold Dark Matter', aka LCDM) by the otherwise bankrupt Big Bang Gang...
