Sol Aisenberg ... RKS: Hubble could see only to a distance of 0.7% of the visible universe and his main aim was to resolve the debate over what 'nebulae' were...
Sol, Nevertheless even before applying 'standard candles' to more precisely determine distance, there is a very clear though admittedly rougher correlation...
... This assumes that the only way the light could be redshifted is via Doppler due to velocity/expansion. Since no-one has a viable explanation for the...
Edgar: There is a strong correlation between the brightness of supernovae type Ia and distance - and the associated red shift - but this confirmation breaks...
Robin, No, you don't understand my point. The point is that red shift clearly varies with the apparent size and brightness of galaxies. On average galaxies...
