From the ignorance, I don't think that the problem is why. The problem is how? How we could find that the light that comes from star A is ... two minutes or on

From the ignorance, I don't think that the problem is why. The problem is how?
How we could find that the light that comes from star A is ... two minutes or one week or one decade delayed respect to the light received from star B? We automatically would convert any anomaly into more distance to earth. This distances could be just wrong and we would not know it.

- robertlagrant 4y agoI don't see the connection between that and what OP said?
- roywiggins 4y agoI mean that distant galaxies are both definitely distant and definitely getting further away, and that's been measured and tested in lots of ways. Tired light is one proposed alternative to the expanding universe cosmology that's failed.
- robertlagrant 4y ago> distant galaxies are both definitely distant and definitely getting further away That doesn't seem to conflict with what the OP said. > Tired light is one proposed alternative But not by the OP. I don't see how your comment relates.
- throwawaymaths 4y agoIf tired light is due to light absorption and remission with matter, it's falsified. If light fundamentally increases in wavelength due to travel over spacetime, it is not falsified.
