• The project I was running was designed to extract this information for all the galaxies in a many cubic megaparsec volume of the local Universe.
• Currently, most astronomers agree that the value of the Hubble constant is about 71 kilometers per second per megaparsec a megaparsec is 3.2 million light-years.
• The expansion rate became known as the Hubble constant; Hubble thought it was 500 kilometers per second every 3.26 million light-years, that is, every megaparsec.
• Therefore, since the curvature of the universe is essentially set by its expansion rate, the expansion rate of the universe determines how far away assuming special relativity...
