Some of the distant galaxies appear to be receding from us faster than the speed of light due to stretch of the space between us and those galaxies. 

By an analogy with the ant on a ropeant on a rope paradox, Thethe light emitted from those galaxies can actually reach us.

Light coming from distant galaxies

Some of the distant galaxies appear to be receding from us faster than the speed of light due to stretch of the space between us and those galaxies . By an analogy with the ant on a rope paradox , The light emitted from those galaxies can actually reach us . Is it true that for those galaxies, At one point in time , They suddenly disappear from our view and then after sufficiently large time (Which maybe more than the lifetime of the universe),They come into view again ?And by the same reasoning ,would more previously hidden galaxies will become visible at sometime?
