Is it really “new” space or is it that the space already here is expanding? And how the actual fuck can we do an experiment to figure out the difference?

In the article they say :

As the fabric of the Universe expands, new space gets created, also with that same amount of energy inherent to it.

But I’m not going to claim to understand whether this is answering my question lol
