Abstract
Halton Arp has recently (1989) presented empirical criticisms of the validity of tired-light mechanisms as an explanation of anomalous redshifts. This is extremely welcome and represents the beginning of a true discussion among those who are not content with standard big bang cosmology. The unorthodox theories are legion: there almost as many theories as there are unorthodox thinkers in this domain. This situation is not conducive to advances in our understanding of a difficult problem. Therefore discussion, and even dispute, are necessary, unavoidable and useful. And who has greater right to initiate the discussion than Chip Arp, the pioneer of the field?
