It seems to me that photons, as part of a field, can only exist where gravity exists, however small the gravity field. Notice we see light from stars, though they are so far away, and photons bend in their path when traveling around massive objects such as the sun; so photons and gravitons interact, and it seems the g fields are much finer.

But I don't think photons can travel away from the cosmos. It doesn't make sense.

So then what is the nature of space at the edge of expansion in the cosmos with respect to fields?
