We get mileage out of it because it's a very reliable engine, to continue your metaphor.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18420630605427509144noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31512022.post-41923399626104608612010-03-23T00:05:35.065-07:002010-03-23T00:05:35.065-07:00Pwax -- Thanks.

And hi !!!<br /><br />I'm operating under the assumption that the Hubble redshift has now been observed and measured at so many galaxies that if there were pronounced vagaries that could not be explained by the Hubble constant, it would now be a major kerfuffle in the astrophysics literature. I will keep looking. Just like you.Douglas Wattshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06686351092076044875noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31512022.post-86462199484602775392010-03-22T16:03:33.743-07:002010-03-22T16:03:33.743-07:00They get a lot of mileage out of the observed red ...They get a lot of mileage out of the observed red shift. For what it is worth, certain types of rotation will produce redshift without an expanding universe.pwaxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16647940752050937588noreply@blogger.com
