... 19.03.2002 . ... Credit Copyright: VIMOS , VLT , ESO Explanation: In the distant universe, time appears to run slow. Since time-dilated light appears shifted toward the red end of the spectrum (redshifted), astronomers are able to use cosmological time-slowing to help measure vast distances in the universe. Above , the light from distant galaxies has been broken up into its constituent colors ( spectra ), allowing astronomers to measure the redshift of known spectral lines . ... March 2002 . ...
