About this document

Hubble Redshift Distance Relation Manual by jdciq is a document available to read on EtoBox.

The document provides instructions for a laboratory exercise on using simulated telescope equipment to measure the redshift and distance of galaxies and determine the relationship between velocity and distance. This relationship, discovered by Edwin Hubble, shows that more distant galaxies are receding faster and can be used to calculate the rate of expansion of the universe and the age of the universe. The exercise guides students through collecting spectroscopic data on galaxy clusters, measuring redshift
