Star number Line number
The diagram shows light collected from four stars.
Because stars are all made from the same chemicals they should
1 2 3 4 5 6 all have black lines in the same place. However, something has
happened to the black lines from stars 2, 3 and 4 to make them
1 move.

The light from star 4 has changed the least/most. Star
4 is the furthest away star. It is moving faster/slower
than the other stars.

This is called redshift/nightshift.
Edwin Hubble said that if Big Bang Theory was correct, the stars should all be moving apart. He also said that the furthest stars should be moving M
away from us fastest. Describe how the changing light from stars supports his theory.
