Have do the photons become more redshifted over time?

Has there been any experment that proves photons can become redshifted over time? If so do you have a source?

I havn't heard any other theory that explains the redshift.
I was agreeing with DBryan although I worded it wrong. I dont think Redshift is correct either. If it does exist the wavelengths that we look at NOW may be a billion years old, and a billion years ago it may have been Blue? Its kind of hard to explain but TIME is the factor I was agreeing was missing in our calculations. A wavelength should decrease in distance over time I believe?

And as Lyndon said,

Quote:
All we have noticed is that the wavelength of photons on arrival is longer than we expect them to be- and that this discrepancy seems to increase with distance.
