I think there might be some confusion in the explanation. It suggests that red shift occurs because of space expansion, not because of relative motion between the light source and observer. My understanding is that there IS relative motion between the light source and observer BECAUSE of expanding space. 172.68.22.151 19:54, 29 April 2024 (UTC)

Edit - There appears to be a "just" in there that I missed, changing the meaning of the sentence somewhat. Never mind. 172.68.22.151 19:58, 29 April 2024 (UTC)
