No. The matter in these jets isn't like a spaceship where the matter is all connected together. It's largely individual plasma particles - over billions of light years they'll run into other particles, be deflected, slow down, etc. There IS friction in space. Matter decay will have significant impact on the mass of matter ejected by the jet, as well, particularly over billions of years. As it decays into a lower energy state, mass will be turned into photons, and less and less of it will be left to impact. Plus, we won't be in the same spot in 850k years anyway. The solar system is moving around the galaxy, and the galaxy is moving around the universe, and space in the universe is expanding. |
