It is the idea that the unisverse began as just a single point, then expanded stretched to grow as large asit is right now.
The Big Bang is a theory as to how astronomers explain the way the universe began.
the universe has been expanding since the beginning (The Big Bang)
The galaxies outside of our own are moving away from us and the ones that are farther away are moving faster.
How the universe is expanding.
How do we know the universe is expanding?
Edwin Hubble discovered that the more distant a galaxy is from us, the faster it appears to be receding into space. This means that the universe is expanding uniformly in all directions.
Light waves are forms of moving energy made of tiny microscopic particles called protons. They're sometimes refered to as electromagnetic waves.
What're light waves redshifted?
Red shifted is the waylength of light that is stretched, so the light is seen as 'shifted' towards the red spectrum.
And that is the end as to Redshifted galaxies and universe expansion!! Hope you learned something!
