Abstract

The recently reported time dilation effect in Type Ia supernova SN 1995K has been claimed to rule out the static universe model of Narlikar & Arp. It is shown here that the variable mass hypothesis which accounts for the redshift phenomenon in the above static universe model does indeed predict the observed effect and that there is no conflict between the data of Leibundgut et al. and the predictions of this model.
