What does "tired light" actually mean?



"Tired light is a class of hypothetical redshift mechanisms that was proposed as an alternative explanation for the redshift-distance relationship. These models have been proposed as alternatives to the models that involve the expansion of the universe. The concept was first proposed in 1929 by Fritz Zwicky, who suggested that if photons lost energy over time through collisions with other particles in a regular way, the more distant objects would appear redder than more nearby ones." (Wikipedia, Tired light)

The idea of the tired light model is this: In the wave movement form light is faster than in particle or photon form. And sooner or later that wave movement that travels ahead of the photon pulls it straight. That thing causes the change in redshift. The idea is that the "old light" has a stronger redshift than the "young light".  

That effect can explain why very distant galaxies seem to be older than the universe. When a photon turns into wave movement it causes stronger redshift. And especially in a longer distance "tired light" causes redshift or virtual redshift to make distant galaxies seem older than the universe. 

Light is one form of electromagnetism. That means light is energy. Things like stars do not make light or energy. Even if we say that stars produce energy we must realize that stars do not produce energy. They release energy that is stored in particles. And that energy is released in fusion. 

The law of indestructibility of matter means that matter cannot vanish. It can turn into energy. So nuclear reactions don't make energy, they just turn material into energy. And that means if a photon travels in the universe without impacting quantum fields or wave movement it cannot get more energy. Or it cannot wrinkle. 

Without that energy load, the wave or string that the photon sends pulls it into wave movement. So, young light means light that has a higher energy level or otherwise, that light moves energy to the object faster than "old light" which is the light in wave-movement form. This means things like IR light transfer energy to objects faster than higher energy UV and X- and gamma-rays. 


"The Tolman surface brightness test rules out the tired light explanation for the cosmological redshift." (Wikipedia, Tired Light)

The redshift can be virtual or real. If light travels past the powerful gravity fields or a galaxy or some other object is just in line between Earth and light, that thing can stretch light. The black hole's gravity field can stretch light so much, that it seems always to be in a longer distance than light. 

When those waves hit the wall they push particles away their way. The energy that the wave transports into those particles is the thing, that can destroy the structure. When wave movement transfers energy into the wall. It sends part of itself into those particles. 

That makes high-energy radiation tunnel itself through the wall without transferring so much energy into it. But when a particle from an energy packet hits to wall it releases or transfers more energy from itself to the wall. That makes the IR radiation heat the wall. X-ray radiation travels through it. When particle form waves hit to wall the larger impact area transfers more energy to the wall. 

And that means the particle transports itself into the wall. That causes the effect. That molecules and visible light cannot travel through the wall. They transfer so much energy to the wall, that there is nothing left to travel through the wall. In cold light, the reflection from quantum fields turns the wall visible. And the thing that makes light cold is that. It reflects from the quantum fields. So, the light or electromagnetic waves or photons have no time to transport energy into those structures. 

And energy or wave movement can turn back into particles. So, wave-particle duality is an extension of the law of indestructibility of matter. 

The wave-form photon and particle-form photons have as much energy. But they transfer it into the object in different ways. The surface area of the impacting wave movement is smaller than the particle form photon. In the same way, a thin bullet transfers energy to a target slower than a blunt bullet. 

The difference between wave movement and bullet is that the wave transports all its energy in it. There are no internal structures in wave movement. And particles are only packets of wave movement. 


The wave that hits the wall transports energy in the wall in smaller areas, and then it transports energy to the wall more gently than particles. When a particle hits to wall it transports more energy in a shorter time. And that causes that shockwave to travel into the wall. That shockwave transfers energy to the particles in the structure. And that sudden impact shockwave causes a situation in which particles push each other away. 

Sir Isaac Newton proved that light has two forms: wave movement and particle. The photon is the particle that transports electromagnetic interaction. The photon is a particle of light. Because information travels faster than particles the light in photon form should travel slower than light that travels in wave movement form. The difference between those speeds is not very big. But sooner or later the photons turn into the wave movement form. 

In the quantum model, the Higgs field, or the base energy field in the universe gathers wave movement-form light into photons. That energy or wave movement, that a photon sends. Makes the ball-shaped field around that particle. Or the wave hits the photon's shell.  Because a photon has no internal structure the wave movement cannot travel inside it. 

That means the photon gets energy stability because there is a quantum pothole behind it. Or it gets as much energy as it delivers. But sooner or later the wave movement or the string that travels ahead of the photon pulls it straight or turns it into wave movement. 



The source of dark energy is unknown. The idea is that some structure in the universe collects energy and then releases it. So this structure condenses energy that it collects from the Higgs field. And maybe tired light can explain that mysterious dark force that rips the universe into pieces. 

This model is introduced as the source of dark energy. When some other wave movement like quantum pressure cones from another particle hits those strings or wave-form light those strings store this energy. Then those strings release this energy into their environment. 

And that means the light itself is the condenser that condenses the Higgs field. Another explanation is that dark energy comes from the multiverse, but nobody has seen those universes outside our universe. But logically thinking they should exist. 

Sometimes, we can see a thing called "tired light" when we see some texts that handle things like the Big Bang theory. The term "tired light" doesn't have so much to do with the Big Bang. The wave movement pulls photons back to the wave movement causing the virtual redshift. But can that redshift be so strong that it denies the expansion of the universe? 

As I wrote before in this text tired light can explain why some of the most distant galaxies seem to be older than the universe. That effect pulls photons straight and can cause virtual redshift that is so strong that it can disturb measurements in the long distances. 

The idea is that information travels faster than particles. So, the induction thought is this. Photon or light has two forms. Particle and wave movement means that the speed of light is lower when it travels in the photon form than when it travels in wave movement. 

That means photons send wave movement to the front of them. That wave movement makes the cone in the quantum field. That surrounds the photon. Then sooner, or later the photon is discharged to wave movement. That means the wave movement that travels before the photon pulls the photon into a wave movement form.

The hydrogen-burning supernovas are interesting models.

The ancient galaxy mirrors the Milky Way.

"This image shows the galaxy REBELS-25 as seen by the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA), overlaid on an infrared image of other stars and galaxies. The infrared image was taken by ESO’s Visible and Infrared Survey Telescope for Astronomy (VISTA). In a recent study, researchers found evidence that REBELS-25 is a strongly rotating disc galaxy existing only 700 million years after the Big Bang.
