tired light cosmology theory The hypothesis that light may be degraded in energy, thereby increasing in wavelength and becoming redshifted, during its passage through intergalactic space. This would provide an alternative to the Big Bang model in accounting for the redshifts of distant galaxies. However, there is no evidence for any such tired-light effect.
