As an astronomer I find observing the cosmos an immence joy and simply never tire of it.Some objects are moving away from us[redshifted],some towards us [blueshifted],but over human lifetime it would be hard to see any change,other than by precice observations.It is good to know that an expanding vacuum energy is holding everything in place,a gentle grip regulated by the frantic motion of the electron.As a result of this view I see no reason for the universe not to accelerate in its expansion.If my view has any validity and the electron places the wolf into sheeps clothing ,ten in an accelerating universe the electron must work harderto maintain the status quo, to which I make the following observation faster electron motion will mean increases in the temperature and spectral emmisions[colourshift] of all objects over millennia .?

I don't think there is any basis for crediting vacuum energy to the motion of electrons.

Many so assert

I'd agree with Ora. Isn't it gravity that might have to "work harder" and which is expected to fail in that regard

Me too. Are you a professional astronomer?
@rosborne979,
Don't you fellas maintaining an accelerating Universe find the idea just a little depressing
While it seems pretty sure, aren't you hoping for an eventual Big Crunch
