In 1929, Edwin Hubble observed the velocity at which galaxies were moving away from the Milky Way. The graph below shows the relationship between this velocity and the distance those galaxies were from the Milky Way.
What conclusion can be drawn from Hubble’s data?
Objects that are closer are moving slower, suggesting that the Universe is shrinking.


Objects that are closer are moving faster, suggesting that the Universe is expanding.


Objects that are farther away are moving faster, suggesting that the Universe is shrinking.


Objects that are farther away are moving faster, suggesting that the Universe is expanding.
