Physics waves

What is redshift?

• Wavelengths that are being expunged because of the uppermost ionosphere, and therefore making the sky glow with red.

• Wavelengths being stretched so the spectrum of light is shifted towards red, and proof of the Big Bang.

• Wavelengths being compressed so the spectrum of light is shifted towards of red.

• Red being stretched so it makes waves
