light spectrum. The discovery of Hubble's law is attributed to work published by Edwin Hubble in 1929. Hubble's law is considered the first observational...

Hubble confirmed in 1929 that the recessional velocity of a galaxy increases with its distance from Earth, a behavior that became known as Hubble's law...

and H 0 {\displaystyle H_{0}} is Hubble's constant, measured to be 70.4+1.3 −1.4 km/s/Mpc by the WMAP. Hubble's law implies that the universe is uniformly...

original discoverer. Examples include Hubble's law, which was derived by Georges Lemaître two years before Edwin Hubble; the Pythagorean theorem, which was...

proof that the universe was expanding and was not a static object. After Hubble's discovery was published, Einstein abandoned the cosmological constant....

galaxies. The ratio between these quantities gives the Hubble rate, in accordance with Hubble's law. Typically, the distance is measured using a standard...

Edwin Hubble. He first derived "Hubble's law", now called the Hubble–Lemaître law by the IAU, and published the first estimation of the Hubble constant...

with the formulation of his eponymous Hubble's law. Milton Humason worked on those observations with Hubble. These observations corroborated Alexander...

slope of about 500 km/s/Mpc. This correlation would come to be known as Hubble's law and would serve as the observational foundation for the expanding universe...

itself was originally formalised by Father Georges Lemaître in 1927. Hubble's law of the expansion of the universe provided foundational support for the...
