Universe in Flight. Astronomers have a speedometer to clock the motions of skittish heavenly bodies. They take spectrographs: photographs of the body's light spread out by a prism into a band of colors. If the band is "shifted toward the red" (i.e., if it is redder than normal), it shows that the body is moving away from the earth...
Tired Light. Other critics question the "red shift" as a measure of velocity. The usual explanation of the reddening effect is that the luminous body's motion away from the observer "pulls out" the light waves, making them longer (redder) than normal. But since red light contains less energy per unit (photon) than violet light, Bubble's critics suggest that light may lose some of its energy in traversing space, thus turning redder. It may start out from a distant nebula as young, vigorous violet and arrive at the earth after millions of weary years as old, tired...
...then mixed with a solution of fresh umbilical cord and rabbit serum. Two weeks ago, in the first issue of the new South Dakota Journal of Medicine and Pharmacy, he reported his findings: if the solution remains clear, the patient has the enzyme in his body in larger than normal amounts-and may have cancer. If the solution becomes cloudy, the patient is free from cancer. The test's* big advantage, according to Dr. Harris: it can be made in 24 to 48 hours, costs only $5, is 75% to 90% accurate in detecting suspected cancer...
