The model of low-energy quantum gravity by the author is based on the conjecture about an existence of the graviton background. An interaction of photons and moving bodies with this background leads to small additional effects having essential cosmological consequences. In the model, redshifts of remote objects and the dimming of supernovae 1a may be interpreted without any expansion of the Universe and without dark energy. Some of these consequences are discussed and confronted with supernovae 1a and long GRBs observations in this paper. It is shown that the two-parametric theoretical luminosity distance of the model fits observations with high confidence levels (100% for the SCP Union 2.1 and JLA compilations and 99.81% for long GRBs). These parameters are computable in the model.
