You know the answer to this Marty. we can only witness things in the past, we have been here for 100 years, us less, they are huge and if they are in a different spot it might take thousands of years for the light to reach us.

time still passes from year2 year decade to decade (even though we are looking into the past when looking at a distant star, the stars cannot all be moving at the same speed in the same direction if they are infact moving like nasa claims...


therefore since we see no change in constellations or space in between stars... then the stars arent moving at all and may very well be fake or a complex illusion

It's why the weak must believe in a maker, a "sky wizard". The reality is too much for them to handle.

We were likely engineered by a species that is/was, relatively speaking, as unimportant as us.

i think the issue is that YOU expect the experts to convince you.

that is not their job. YOU need to get yourself educated and then learn about things before flying off with ill informed accusations, conclusions and assumptions.

just because YOU dont get it, it doesnt mean there is a conspiracy or orchestrated society scheming cunning plans.

it is a well known proverb :you cannot convince a stupid person that they are stupid.

and it applies also to ignorant people.

i think NASA- who's janitors have PhDs (j/k of course, but last i heard, if you didnt have at least 1 PhD, then you dont even get an interview) , would be well placed to make such comments.

so its NASA, versus you.

as a betting man, i will take the bet that NASA is closer to the truth. but thats just me.

common sense says every star constellation is fixed everything moves together in the night sky at the same rate

the moon and sun are not apart of any constellation so omit them

everything else aside from meteors is oddly fixed

It's because our angle of vision.

Imagine a car passing next to you at 100 mph, it only takes a couple of seconds for the car to get out of your sight (assuming you don't move your head).

Now imagine an airplane moving at 500 mph, thousands of feet's above the ground. Although it's moving way faster than the car, it takes longer for the plane to get out of your sight.

The same applies to what we see in the night sky. Things are moving, really really fast, but they are so far away that we still can see them.

It's testimony to how large the galaxy truly is. If you accept what the distances of the stars are it makes sense. They even have constellation maps of what the sky will look like many thousands of years from now, you can google it.

They are, that's known, the universe is expanding, redshift explains this. All galaxies are moving away from each other at the speed of light, we have literally no chance of making it to another galaxy unless we move at light speed or somehow go superluminal.

Things are in different places, the light you are seeing is comprised of photons, which travel at the speed of light, take time to reach you, you are seeing the past. Wait a thousand years for light to reach you and you are seeing a 1000 years into the past.

Correct, we are seeing slight movement, however, when it reaches us the constellation (stars) are in a different place, gravity holds the spin of the galaxies together, as the universe expands at an ever accelerating rate, gravity will not hold shit together, the big rip as it were.

I would imagine a degree of movement in the sky is millions of lightyears of travel based on the distance.

It's pretty amazing, some  cool space shit you might like. Magnetars are pretty mind blowing, Bootes void is a crazy mystery and the big roar (radio signal) is perhaps the best mystery of space. It prevents us from gaining information about the oldest stars that exist, we are essentially blocked out as the radio signal is roughly 6 times greater then any known source of such a signal. Some suggest it is tech and perhaps a dyson sphere blocking us out. Some suggest it is the universe beginning to rip hence the magnitude of the roar.

The universe is expanding, the space between things is growing, think of the universe like a balloon with the stars dotted on it, as you expand/blow up the balloon they get further apart.
Eventually the expansion will  overcome gravity, it may big crunch, I am speaking in exactness, the big rip appears to have more evidence.

You are correct, some galaxies may merge, this is only in galaxies which share the same gravity well, in an expanding universe, all things are moving apart.

AFAIK the speed is proportional to the galaxy distance. For this reason the redshift is used to estimate the distance of the stars

Hubbles law correct?

Thanks for the info.
Is the speed in which the universe expanding remaining consistent? I think the "Big Crunch" concept came from the belief that the speed in which the universe is expanding is slowing down, which some scientists think would eventually lead to a stagnation and then a reversal - resulting in the crunch. However, I've also heard that the speed in which the universe is expanding increases the further it expands.

It's not my field more of a hobby so I could be wrong, but as I understand it, gravity weakens as things spread out on the space-time fabric from expansion. The metric for expansion of space is based on the distance between two objects in space overtime, the rate of expansion is accelerating, it has always expanded,the rate was slower in the past. The fact that's it picking up would indicate gravity is weakening, shit's going rip.

stars and constellations are at different distances from earth

stars of the same constellation are at different distances from earth
if a star in a constellation is 800 million miles from earth and another star in that same constellation is 900 million miles then that further star has to be moving precisley slower or faster in order to keep integrity of the constellation

if science can only claim a very small fractional amount of movement or differentiation in the constellation over a large amount of time 350 years you can bank on they have no clue wats really out there

 constellations are moving together, they share the same gravity well, those constellations may be gone completely, we won't know for thousands of years.

They are a cluster of stars while moving, are moving together. The amount of space between things is absolutely insane.

This will help put things into perspective.

if science can only claim a very small fractional amount of movement or differentiation in the constellation over a large amount of time 350 years you can bank on they have no clue wats really out there


your comment was so irrelevant and stupid entirely missing the argument

You're not realizing how far the stars are. 800 million miles is a drop in the bucket, that's well within our solar system. Stars aren't moving around like planets from our perspective. And there is no integrity of the constellations. Constellations are just arbitrary groupings of stars notated by ancient people, to what they saw in the sky, it just stuck around out of convenience. And it will one day be entirely rearranged.

Voyager 1 or 3, to lazy to look it up, maybe another one, has been travelling for like 40 years and is just now reaching the edge of our solarsystem.

constellations are moving together, they share the same gravity well, those constellations may be gone completely, we won't know for thousands of years.

They are a cluster of stars while moving, are moving together. The amount of space between things is absolutely insane.

This will help put things into perspective.

Excellent link.

This is the one that did it for me (massive 21mb image (http://images.google.de/imgres?imgurl=https%3A%2F%2Fupload.wikimedia.org%2Fwikipedia%2Fcommons%2Ff%2Ff5%2FEarth%2527s_Location_in_the_Universe_VERTICAL_(JPEG).jpg&imgrefurl=https%3A%2F%2Fcommons.wikimedia.org%2Fwiki%2FFile%3AEarth%27s_Location_in_the_Universe_VERTICAL_(JPEG).jpg&h=23624&w=2953&tbnid=qGZtfX0v3EhlfM%3A&docid=JhyVGz4gCjCGFM&ei=VFtDV9mMGMuisAGPsITgDQ&tbm=isch&iact=rc&uact=3&dur=223&page=1&start=0&ndsp=17&ved=0ahUKEwjZhtLC-PDMAhVLESwKHQ8YAdwQMwg3KA0wDQ&bih=637&biw=1280))

The scale is too unfathomable to be contemplated by our experience of space and time. I think the species has not evolved to meaningfully explore even local star systems, never mind the galaxy. We just experience time too fast.

the constellations havent changed in 1000's of years

Look up Barnard's star, it's very close to us in relative terms. Its movement has been tracked. Binary stars that are close to eachother, their orbital paths have been tracked too. Some of them take only months to move around each other.

yes but we cant see it with naked eye

all constellations have kept there integrity over many years
wich seems to be a tall task considering every thing is moving in diff directions
i cant figure it out

i beleive the planets move but not stars
