The Doppler shift is the effect of sound increasing or decreasing in pitch as an object moves towards or away from you. ... Light works the same way, except light is shifted to redder colours when an object is moving away, and to blue colours when an object is travelling towards us. ... Almost every object he observed had its light stretched to redder colours, indicating essentially everything in the Universe was moving away from us. ... So the Hubble constant tells us how old the Universe is. ...

Underdetermined sets is a new type of data structures (terms) developed in Actor Prolog . ... The point is that an underdetermined set can include some indefinite rest (a tail) like a list in usual Prolog . At the same time, the order of elements of an underdetermined set can be arbitrary one and it does not affect results of unification of underdetermined sets. Moreover, Actor Prolog guarantees that a rest of an underdetermined set never contains elements that are explicitly given in the set. ...
