A growing number of conflicts within the Standard Model call into question the fundamental interpretation of the Doppler component of the Hubble Expansion Law and the nature of events in spacetime associated with conventional coordinates of the line element attached to the observer. We postulate that nonlinear effects associated with the propagation of light in a gravitational field that produce shock waves, at cosmological distances approaching the limit of observation, that are manifest observationally in the spectrum QSO’s and Supernova as a continuous array of ‘light booms’ produced by superluminal boosts associated with continuous coordinate transformations relative to a distant observer.
