with all the galaxies speeding away from each other is it possible to back trace their trajectory?

It is possible to back track the time of the beginning of the observable universe from the expansion of space between galaxies, but not the place, because all places were created at the initial moment of creation, and in any case there would be no reference point. Prior to that time, no one knows if time existed. Was there nothingness, or is there an eternal something and the big bang was just one event in an infinity of something unknown? No one really knows.

you're false impression the priority. The analogy of the container works because you narrow back the kind of dimensions in the "universe". someone "in" the universe that is the exterior of the container is a 2-dimensional being. the boom takes position at -all- factors, utilizing each and every thing interior both-dimensional floor remote from each and every thing else. imagine drawing tiny dots on the exterior of a balloon and then blowing it up. The factors will all rush remote from one yet another. In our universe, a similar aspect is occuring, even if it really is critical to be conscious that there is not any midsection of boom. the point -interior- the balloon in the above analogy isn't -wthin- both-dimensional universe and has no meaning. So there is not any longer any "starting off factor". to boot to, careful study have shown that the gravitational stress embodied with information from all the count number number and capacity in our universe (of which all the observable count number number and capacity makes up in simple terms a paltry 5%) is inadequate to halt the boom, and that a number of billion years in the past, the universe began to improve at an accelerating cost, via hoover capacity.

Ultimately, that would be the result from cumulative efforts spent going off in every direction to a multitude of destinations, that while requiring a feat of navigation in every instance, will be largely automated to make it feasible for the masses (should that ever be the case)...

It is often held to be true that the ancient pyramids have 'skylights' offering a view from within that originally lined up with stars in the sky - this has changed over millennia so they are no longer visible... This supports a theory either way - the universe is expanding, contracting or simply on the move....

It will be a three-dimensional chart corresponding in real-time that begins to piece it all together and so the link to my question above is proffered for this answer.

No. This is because from our point of view, galaxies are moving away from us. But if we lived in some other galaxy, it would also look like galaxies are moving away from us. There is no absolute place of origin.

Hey Mathew don't you have heard of big bang! Its the origin of everything. Moreover there are many other ways of tracing the exact trajectory in my opinion. The light energy is never destroyed, it just scatters. I am sure you are aware of redshift. By determining red shift we can see that. Calculation of drift speed thos can be done. Scientists today are determining the amount of dark energy which can give you exact estimate.

imagine the skin of a balloon with galaxies drawn on it that is contracting. No point of the skin is the origin.
