Does expanding space reduce a feeling of acceleration?


Recommended Posts

If my rocket creates comfortable acceleration for me 1g in a galaxy cluster and if the rocket creates the same acceleration force to every one kilogram of the rocket in space between galaxy clusters then will I feel the same force of acceleration?

Yes. F = ma.

 

The expansion of the universe involves no forces so will not change your acceleration.

Apart from which it would be undetectably small on the scale of you and your space-ship.

Can tiny changes be there?
