Quantized redshift
From RationalWiki
Quantized redshift refers to the clustering of galaxies in concentric shells away from Earth at periodic distances. Evidence for it is flimsy at best, and consequently it is largely ignored by most experts. However, it is used by creationists and geocentrists to argue that Earth is at the center of the universe.
[edit] Evidence
Up to the late 1990s, some studies indicated the possibility for a periodicity in galaxy clusters depending on the statistical methods used for data analysis.[1] Starting in the late 1990s, and continuing to the present day, the redshifts of a much larger numbers of galaxies were measured, providing significantly more data. Recent studies indicate no evidence[2][3] or weak evidence[4]. Another survey provided weak evidence[5], but a subsequent re-analysis of the same data brought that conclusion into question, explaining the observations as an effect of the statistical techniques used to derive it.[6]
It can safely be said that evidence for the existence of a quantized redshift is hardly convincing. It appears that the only people who take it seriously are those who reject conventional cosmological models.
