Detailed explanation-1: -Subsequently, Edwin Hubble discovered an approximate relationship between the redshifts of such “nebulae” and the distances to them with the formulation of his eponymous Hubble’s law.
Detailed explanation-2: -By 1929, Hubble had completely reimagined our place in the universe; not only was it home to millions of other galaxies, but the universe itself was expanding as well. Contrary to the previously held view of a static universe, Hubble ultimately proved that galaxies are, in fact, moving away from us.
Detailed explanation-3: -This correlation was first observed by Edwin Hubble and has come to be known as Hubble’s law. Vesto Slipher was the first to discover galactic redshifts, in about the year 1912, while Hubble correlated Slipher’s measurements with distances he measured by other means to formulate his Law.
