The problem of the influence of the cosmic expansion on our local physics has received repeated attention since long ago. The author shows that the Einstein-Straus model does not give a robust answer to this question. This is done by finding the most general static region embeddable in a Friedmann-Lemaître-Robertson-Walker expanding cosmological model and showing that the model must be ``almost spherically symmetric''.
