Linked from

The 12 pages that link to Vesto Slipher, each with the reason it gives.

• RedshiftRelated: His observations established that many galaxies showed large spectral shifts, mostly toward longer wavelengths.

• Hubble constantRelated: His redshift measurements supplied much of the velocity evidence later used in expansion studies.

• Edwin HubbleRelated: Slipher’s redshift measurements supplied much of the velocity data Hubble used.

• Hubble's lawRelated: His redshift measurements provided much of the velocity evidence later paired with distances.

• Hubble flowRelated: His spectroscopy supplied many of the early recession measurements later compared with distances.

• Clyde TombaughRelated: As observatory director, he hired Tombaugh and oversaw the search.

• Percival LowellRelated: Lowell hired Slipher, whose observatory work later reshaped astronomy far beyond Lowell’s planetary interests.

• Static universeRelated: His redshift measurements supplied much of the early evidence for galaxy recession.

• Extragalactic astronomyRelated: His redshift measurements supplied evidence later used to study cosmic expansion.

• Andromeda–Milky Way collisionRelated: His measurement of Andromeda’s approach supplied an early key input to collision predictions.

• Expansion of the UniverseRelated: His redshift measurements supplied much of the velocity evidence later used in expansion studies.

• Observational cosmologyRelated: His redshift measurements supplied early evidence for large-scale expansion.
