can an object be stationary in space, I mean absolutely stationary?

I know an object can be stationary relative to another, but is there anything absolutely stationary in the universe? Or is space itself expanding and thus nothing is stationary?

There is no such thing as absolutely stationary, because all movement is relative to some other object/frame of reference.

If you think about it, how would you measure/prove that something was absolutely stationary? Stationary compared to what?
