Simple Maths .... This galaxy is approx 13.2 billion years old. It is 
approx 40 billion light years away from us!!

So this means this galaxy and us are moving apart at approx 
40,000,000,000 l.y divided by 13,200,000,000 years. Which means we are 
separating at approx 3 times the speed of light!!

Who was it that said things cannot go faster than speed of light??

So I guess galaxy's can move at Warp Speed!!
