mph and years ? Why using man-made concepts to debunk a reality about astronomy
The concepts of "mph" (miles per hour) and "years" are human constructs used to measure speed and time, respectively, and do not "exist" in the universe as physical entities.
Most humans are stuck in a linear vision of time, whereas only the present moment and its consequences really exist.
You may have cared for 4 dogs during your entire life, and see all them die. Maybe most dogs think humans are immortal because most of them die before their owners.
You can make people believe all sorts of things from different points of view.
"The exact positions of stars change over time due to several factors, though these changes are often subtle and require long timescales or precise measurements to notice.
Timescale and Observation: Most of these changes are imperceptible to the naked eye over a human lifetime. Constellations like the Big Dipper look stable, but over tens of thousands of years, their shapes will distort significantly due to proper motion. Astronomers use precise instruments (like those on the Gaia spacecraft) to track these shifts, which are measured in milliarcseconds per year for most stars."
