J.C.MacSwell Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 I read somewhere here (IIRC, I tried to search it but the search didn't work for some reason) that light intensity at astronomical distances stops falling off at the expected rate (I think it would be inverse squared combined with the redshift etc.) If I didn't dream this does anyone have an explanation or link?
