"Other Explanations for Red Shift" is an article by Lori Anne Gardi published on 25 August 2018 on Beyond Mainstream.
Gardi begins from the familiar change in pitch of a passing siren — the Doppler shift described by Christian Doppler in 1842, applicable to any wave including light — and the inference from cosmological redshift to an expanding universe that rests on it. Her purpose is to set out the alternative accounts of redshift that do not require expansion, and so do not require the Big Bang.
