Is it true that the farther away from Earth a galaxy is the slower it is moving?

incorrect. The farther away from earth a galaxy is, the faster it is moving.


What galaxy is 2.9 million miles away in light years in constellation?

No galaxy is 2.9 million miles away - they are much, much farther. Even the closest star in our own galaxy is much farther away than that.


Is the farther away galaxy is from us the faster it is moving away from us?

The farther away another galaxy is from our solar system the less effect that the gravitational pull will have on that galaxy.Thus allowing the other galaxy to travel at a faster rate.


What is is hubbles law?

Hubble's Law states that (more or less) the distance to a galaxy is a constant multiple of the distance to that galaxy. For example, if one galaxy is moving away from us at three times the speed of another galaxy, then that means it is also three times as far away. The Law indicates that the Universe is expanding and had a beginning. Before Hubble's Law, many astronomers thought that the Universe did not have a beginning (it always existed).


What is the relationship between galaxy's distance from earth and the speed?

The farther away the galaxy is from ours the faster it moves from our galaxy.


According to Hubble's law what do the farthest galaxies in the universe appear to be doing?

Receding from each other faster the farther away they are. He saw they were "red shifted" and the red shift was greater the farther away the galaxy was. This mean that the Universe is expanding.


What galaxy did hubble discover?

-- Once you get past our "local group", every galaxy is moving away from us. -- The farther any galaxy is from us, the faster it's moving away from us.


What did the astronnmer Edwin Hubble discover about the relationship between the distance of a galaxy and the rate at which it is receding?

He discovered that the farther away a galaxy was, the faster it was moving away from Earth.


What is the pattern between how far away galaxies are and how quickly they are moving?

The farther a galaxy, the faster it moves away from us.


Is the following sentence true or false the farther away a galaxy is from us a faster is it is moving away from us?

The sentence is generally considered true. According to Hubble's Law, the farther away a galaxy is, the faster it is receding from us due to the expansion of the universe. This relationship has been observed in many galaxies, supporting the idea that the universe is expanding. However, there are exceptions due to local gravitational influences and other factors.


Will our galaxy wash away?

According to Nasa, The Milky Way (Our galaxy) will crash into Andremoda and our galaxy will slowly wash away.


How did Hubble tell the universe was expandining?

By the redshift of the galaxies. In general, the farther away a galaxy is from us, the faster it moves away from us.
