*NO. Until the late 1990s everybody, including Edwin Hubble, figured that 
the expansion of the universe must be slowing down due to gravity's 
attraction, but then we discovered the expansion is actually accelerating, 
and nobody knows why. So the universe is expanding faster now than it was 
10 billion years ago.*


*I am aware of that. Does it mean Hubble's law is wrong. It says, if I 
understand correctly, that the further back in time we go, the greater is 
the rate of expansion? AG*
