Other men (including Einstein) had theorized about the universe, using their minds as telescopes. Hubble had evolved his theory by looking at the universe itself...
...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...
