Question regarding accellerating expansion of the universe.

In summary, scientists use relativistic corrections when measuring the expansion of the universe. However, this relativistic correction has only been applied to the apparent magnitude data. There is a challenge to the BB cosmology due to the recent discoveries that quasars may be part of the answer. Additionally, the CMB is the local signature of the ZPE EM fields and might not be the echo of the Big Bang.

... There is no problem with Olber's Paradox, because in an infinite Universe the vacuum field in any location can only interact with EM within its visible universe, in other words with light that comes from near enough not to have been shifted into insensibility by interaction with billions of light years of the vacuum field.
What parts of an infinitely old universe would not be visible at any given location? And how does the energy of an EM wave get absorbed by this vacuum EM aether without raising it's ground state? And if it does raise the ground state, why is it not now infinite? This unexplained loss of energy is a violation of the laws of thermodynamics and rewriting those laws was something even Einstein never contemplated:

"Thermodynamics is the only physical theory of universal content which, within the framework of the applicability of its basic concepts, I am convinced will never be overthrown." — Albert Einstein

They do not compensate adequately for relavistic effects.

How do scientists compensate for relativistic effects when measuring the expansion of the universe using type 1a supernove?

Thanks

The shapiro effect , slowing down of light due to gravity.
And the motion of the Earth the solar system, and the milky way are not taken into acount .
This is why the expanding universe is a false picture.
Hubble , knew about this but blundered ahead until his theories were made law and fact.
