What evidence other than redshift/distance relationship is there to support
the Hubble Law? It would seem that other effects on photons could be
postulated to explain the loss of energy. It just seems like a weakness to
me that the whole cosmological picture of an expanding universe has been
built on this single effect: redshift.
