Red shift is caused because the universe is expanding, and the perceived spectrum of energy seen in the stars is shifted to a lower frequency (towards red) by the doppler effect.
Yes, but also: Earth sees red shifting in all different directions out into space. So we are the center of the Universe? Or we are in an expanding balloon? Or just maybe, light escaping from a gravity hole (read "star") gets a red shift. Larger stars have larger red shifts. Space dust blocks light, so only the larger "stars" (clusters) are visible from a larger distance. The greater red shifts are from further away, because they are the large cluster of mass. You can't see the fly on the window of the truck heading for you. You see the great big truck.
Hubble's red shift is due to movement, however, a large mass (star) will gravitationally cause a red shift. The former is studied; the latter is not.
The opposite of the red shift is the purple shift.
Two things can cause red-shift:- The rapid motion of an object away from the observer. This is known as the Doppler-effect.- Expansion of space between the object and the observer.
The Red Shift was created in 2005-06.
One of the most reliable methods employed presently is using Hubbles Laws and Constant, utilizing the red shift. RED SHIFT A+LS (:
This phenomenon is called red shift.
The red shift depends on the relative motion of the emitting source and receiving detector. Hydrogen per se has no red shift. There is hydrogen with great red shift (in stars in galaxies far away that are moving rapidly away from us).
The red shift shows the velocity with which an object is moving away from the earth. The red shift of an object is correlated to its distance from the earth and so it is also a measure of the distance.
Red shift does not support the steady state theory.
Red shift has confirmed the expansion of universe. Both red and blue shift at the edges of the sun has confirmed the spin of sun..
In 1848, Hippolyte Fizeau first noted a red shift in stars. In 1912, Vesto Slipher first noted a large red shift in nebulae. In 1929, Edwin Hubble published his findings that the size of galaxy's red shift was proportional to its distance from our Earth.
