Hubble law  

Definición

  • Hubble's law, also known as the Hubble–Lemaître law, is the observation in physical cosmology that galaxies are moving away from Earth at speeds proportional to their distance. In other words, the farther they are, the faster they are moving away from Earth. The velocity of the galaxies has been determined by their redshift, a shift of the light they emit toward the red end of the visible spectrum. (Wikipedia, The Free Encyclopedia, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hubble%27s_law)
