Superluminal galaxies have already been observed and in fact this has become one of theevidences against the special theory of relativity.
Given the fact that galaxy velocities of about nine times the speed of light have already beenobserved, this result seems realistic.
Receding galaxy emits light at , λ = 650 nm
Since Hal is too new to post links, I'll post it here: http://vixra.org/pdf/1908.0409v2.pdfAn interesting claim from the article:QuoteSuperluminal galaxies have already been observed and in fact this has become one of theevidences against the special theory of relativity.It looks like our guest here is yet another relativity denialist.QuoteGiven the fact that galaxy velocities of about nine times the speed of light have already beenobserved, this result seems realistic.
That galaxy does not have a superluminal speed in the inertial frame of Earth, but astronomers don't use inertial frames (or 'short scale') when discussing massive distances like that.
