@rivenator12113 It makes plenty of sense. And no, that does not mean Polaris is traveling at the speed of light.
@SAM101907 but how do you know that the object you are looking at isnt ten times bigger but ten times further?
or maybe the distance is the same but the star is smaller but brighter
how do you decide that
@SAM101907 Please explain how the Polaris stars that are 323 lightyears away are showing up at the same location every day? That wouldn't make any sense on a globe earth, please take a minute and imagine it in your head.
@anon415454+4646 they measure the light waves coming from it. The more redshifted it is, the further away it is.
@rivenator12113 I honestly don’t see the issue. It’s 323 light years away and relatively stationary, why does it need to be going faster?
how do you know that the star doesnt just emit red light?
light is wave and only wave no particle btw
@SAM101907 Imagine you have 3 balls, 1 is the sun 2 is the earth and the 3rd is the polaris stars. the polaris stars are 323 light years away. The earth revolves around the sun. How can the polaris star show up at the same location everyday? I tried to make it as simple for you
@anon415454+4646 Spectrograph. If they can tell what is fusing in the start, they know what colour they should see.
"Imagine you have 3 balls" than you would have three times more balls than hitler had 😄
@SAM101907 Ah you see, there's where your argument become invalid. If it is relatively stationery, we shouldn't be able to see it at the same location every day
@rivenator12113 Again, there’s no issue here. It’s behaving like it should.
Then your argument is invalid
Why should we?
@SAM101907 how do they know what it is fueling it from the start?
We shouldn't be able to see it at the same location every day if it is relatively stationery and if it's 323 light years away
thats a circle thinking
@anon415454+4646 Spectrograph
@SAM101907 bro please, have you went to college? you should be able to make 3 premises and a conclusion, but your argument will still be invalid
ignore the first part, very rude of me
@rivenator12113 Picture this. If you were swinging next to a boat, and it moved ten feet in front of you left to right, it’s quite noticeable. Now have that same boat about 4 miles away and move the same distance, it will be hardly noticeable.
Swimming*
so many comments on this channel, cant find my previous message T_T
323 light years would be relatively way more than 4 miles away lol
@SAM101907 Please write your premies and your conclusion, I will show you where it is invalid.
Now if you swing ten feet to the right, the boat will still appear in the same location, because it’s so far. Ten feet compared to four miles is nothing. As is the diameter of earths orbit compared to 323 light years.

Again, false comparison the distance away would be considerable further from the boat
Exactly!
See, then it shouldn't be 323 light years away
It would be unsound
According to Nasa
Why? It makes perfect sense. We hardly see any movement from it because of its incomprehensible distance.
If it
is very further away from the boat, wouldn't it need to be moving at an insane speed for us to notice it?
at the same location
I don't know why I'm still typing lol. This argument of yours is unsound if you choose to side with NASA
Why would it need to be moving at insane speed?
If it is 323 light years away, we wouldn't be able to see it at the same location every day. Because it would have to catch up to us every day when we revolve around the sun if you believe in the heliocentric model
