Expansion of the Universe and a Hierarchical Structure of the Universe as Solutions of the Dark Night Sky Paradox
Gron, O.
American Journal of Physics, 46, 9, 923-7, Sep 78
Shows that the expansion of the universe and its hierarchical structure may solve the dark night sky paradox. Points out that Harrison's solution, and the expansion of the universe, are equally important in explaining the reduction of radiation density to the level we observe by night. (Author/GA)
