The distances to the most of these galaxies estimated from their red shifts and the application of Hubble's Law.

<h3>What is Hubble's Law?</h3>

The discovery in physical cosmology that galaxies are travelling away from Earth at rates proportionate to their distance is known as Hubble's law, often referred to as the Hubble-Lemaître law or Lemaître's law. In other words, they are travelling away from Earth more quickly the more away they are. The redshift of the galaxies—a shift in the light they produce toward the red end of the visible spectrum—has been used to calculate their velocities.
