In 1911, Einstein discussed the deformation of space by massive stars, causing gravitational redshifts and bendings of light. He found for the spectra of sun the EGR value of 2 10-6. At those times, all redshifts observed in the spectra of stars (Huggins), of canal rays (Stark), and of mechanically propelled light sources (Majorana), were rightfully handled as due to the Doppler Effect. The sun's EGR value was therefore said equal to a Doppler shift in a runaway motion with a speed of 0.6 km/s. Thus, Hubble and Humason, too, expressed (since 1929) the HHR values in observed spectra of distant galaxies, "for convenience", in terms of equivalent Doppler shifts. These HHR values roughly corresponded to a runaway speed of 100 km/s per every megaparsec (Mpc) distance to a given galaxy. A Mpc is 200 billion a.u. (astronomical units), where an a.u. is the average distance from sun to earth. Hence, if all celestial objects, located along the path of light from a galaxy would create, per a.u. distance, a billionth of the gravitational distortion, created by sun on our a.u. distance, then this would already be sufficient to consider the HHR as due to EGR.(M.Simhony, The Epola Space, 1990, 160 pp, and The Story of Matter and Space, 1999, 70 pp (available from the author).
