It will be "blue-shifted". That is, the wavelength of the light will appear to be shorter and so more blue.


What is galaxy redshifted?

Galaxy redshift is much light the Doppler effect. If a galaxy is traveling away from us, the light that it emits and is seen by us is stretched out (the faster we are separating, the stronger the redshift), that means that the wavelegnth is stretched a bit, shifting the light towards red.
