Explanation :

Edwin Hubble used a telescope to discover the movement of galaxies in 1929. He was an American Astronomer.

The telescope invented by him is called a Hubble telescope. It has a 2.4-meter mirror.

He gives the relation between the distance to a galaxy and its recessional velocity. This is known as the Hubble law. The relation is as follows :


v=H_0\ r

where,


v is recessional velocity.


H_0 is Hubble constant.


r is distance.

So, the given statement is True.
