This question is a more concrete reincarnation of an old question about energy conservation in GR.
Are there mechanisms to extract energy from the cosmic rate of expansion? putting some extremely long ropes across the universe and extract work from their increase of separation?
assuming this is possible ( i don't see why it would not ), what form would take the back-reaction force? in all physics, every time you extract work from some system by some force, this system will exert a force back. Can we slow down cosmic expansion by variations of these mechanisms?
