What does RedShift really mean???

From it's beginning in 1993, I have realized that most people don't know what is really meant by the name.

red·shift (r d sh ft )n. An increase in the wavelength of radiation emitted by a celestial

body as a consequence of the Doppler effect. (from American Heritage Dictionary)

As you know, when a race car passes you and is moving away from you, it changes pitch from a higher pitched sound to lower-pitched (Doppler effect).  In the same way,  a car would have a reddish appearance as it is moving away from you at near-light speed (low frequency light wave), and that is called a RedShift...and you probably aren't going to catch it!  :)  - Chris Shenefield
