He originally suggested that galaxies are moving farther away He also suggested that the distance of a galaxy is proportional to its recessional speed who is He?

Edwin Hubble.


According to Hubbell's law more rapidly moving galaxies are now?

The law states that the galaxy's that are further away from us are moving faster.


What did Edwin hubble discover about the redshift?

Edwin Hubble discovered that galaxies are moving away from us, and the further a galaxy is from us, the faster it is moving away. This phenomenon is known as redshift, where the light emitted from these galaxies is shifted towards the red end of the spectrum due to their motion away from us.


How many galaxies are approaching milky way galaxy and how many are moving away related to the cosmological red shift?

Most galaxies are moving away from us. Only a few galaxies, which are nearby, are moving towards us.


Are all galaxies moving away from ours because your galaxy is at the center of the universe?

Other galaxies are moving away because the universe is expanding, but we are not at the centre of the universe.


How fast are galaxies moving away from each other in the expanding universe?

Galaxies in the expanding universe are moving away from each other at speeds proportional to their distance, with more distant galaxies moving faster. This phenomenon is known as the expansion of the universe.


How does red shift differ between galaxies close to us and ones which are further away?

Generally, the galaxies that are further away will have the larger red shifts.


In which direction are nearby all galaxies moving relative to earth?

Nearly all galaxies are moving away from our galaxie and planet.


how distance to a galaxy and speed are related?

Relationship between distance of galaxy and its speed is that galaxies are moving away from the Earth at velocities proportional to their distance. In other words, the further they are the faster they are moving away from us.


If light from galaxies is redshifted what can astronomers conclude about galaxies?

That the galaxy is moving away from us.


What direction are observed galaxies moving from your galaxy?

Away.
