Red shift appears mostly very far away… where the empty space is not resolved so much… hydrogen in infinite time universe is easy to form with radioactive decay, and other processes that produce hydrogen and helium from larger elements and supernovae, the only real bang in the sky. If anything , 14B years is not enough to combine carbon, oxygen, gold, uranium on earth from different classes of supernova .

elliptical galaxies do contract, but I mean larger structures like galaxy clusters or bigger.
