the claim

Distant galaxies recede from us faster than light because expanding space is not limited by light speed.

INSUFFICIENT LEANING
Recorded sources
4 sources for · 0 against

Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that distant galaxies recede from us faster than light because expanding space is not limited by light speed?

Unclear. One peer-reviewed cosmology paper states that in big-bang models galaxies at sufficient distance had recession velocities exceeding the speed of light, and another lays out the standard interpretation that such recession does not violate special relativity because space itself recedes. Neither item is a dedicated source on the light-speed limit for expanding space, and the second paper's purpose is to question that interpretation.
