Why Do Stars Move Across The Sky? - Stargazing Live, Web Exclusive Preview - BBC Two 

it wont be the case if the one who moving is the figurine

yes, we don't move! (agreed to be under 4 seconds! - ha ;) )

Earth is flat

Of course they will move in a 24 hour period but that don't mean crap! I'm looking up as we speak and they are I. The same position

I think the stars we can see with the naked eye aren't that far, googling "farthest star that can be seen with the naked eye" gives a few different answers but they all lie within less than 20k light years only, I believe the stars we can see with our eyes are all in our galactic neighborhood (not including galaxies like Andromeda), they orbit with us around the galactic core. That being said, you're right, space is so damn big that despite those stars being in our "neighborhood" to actually see the night sky change we need to live and record them for several thousands of years. Humanity's recorded history only started about 5 thousands years ago, we're just too short lived, and things happen slow in this universe relative to us short lived creatures. An article I found mentions that the stars Arcturus, Sirius, and Aldebaran have been found to have changed location by half a degree in the sky since ancient Greek times. That's how slow the change is, other stars in their constellation haven't moved even that much yet. The sun orbits the galactic core fully every about 230 million years, together with its neighboring stars, but they won't stay exactly the same, so the night sky as we know it with all of constellations will change over thousands and millions of years to come.. I sometimes wish I could be there to witness it all, a slow paced movie for sure.

because they believe on fake news about what the scientist say.. People today's are more wiser, we gather evidence, we research and study. Obviously the same stars appears on the sky every night.

Yes sir

From or perspective polaris wont move as its above the north pole.

i wish it is

Flat earth truth is growing bro.

There are trillions of stars in our galaxy, the north star happens to currently align (not perfectly because it does wander a bit) with earth's axis during the very short time that man has been observing it which is very short when you consider earth is 4.5 billion years old... The amazing thing is that this star is called the north star and it aligns with our north pole, what a coincidence... lol

The milky way isn’t expanding and the stars near the sun are moving with the sun along the milky way. It’s like cars in traffic, the car in front of you doesn’t look like it’s moving. And the north star (polaris) wasn’t always the north star, it wasn’t during biblical times (~0AD)

you notice how they claim that the Earth is rotating but yet he uses the umbrella to represent the sky and rotate the sky instead lol he's gaslighting all his stupid followers probably because he's been brainwashed himself

The north star wasn't always Polaris, it was different in ancient Egypt for example, and will once again be a different star thousands of years from now. This is because Earth's tilt itself is changing, it's predicted to rotate slowly completing a full circle every 25k years iirc (correct me on the number if I'm remembering wrong), so the north star will always keep changing, it just takes time and we haven't been keeping records for long. That being said, earth/sun/galaxy movement is not what's causing that north star change, like I said it's the slowly changing tilt of the Earth. The change of the position of the stars themselves relative to Earth will take a long loooooong time to be something we humans can perceive, on the order of 100k to millions of years, space is big. Even at 500,000 miles an hour, space is just that big, and events regarding stars and galaxies just take a very long time to happen. Long for us anyway, our recorded history is only 5k years old, the stars barely moved relative to each other and the the galactic core since then, despite moving at such incredible speeds, space is just so damn big. I'd say it's damn near incomprehensible to our human brains, just try to truly comprehend the distances in the solar system alone, it's mind boggling, stuff like "you can fit 30 Earths in the distance between the Earth and the moon", what?? It doesn't seem that far! But it is. And the distances between the planets is another story entirely. Another example is the prediction that when the milky way collides with Andromeda, most starts will not crash into each other, there's just so much space in between them normally that most of them will miss each other. Oh and that collision will last a loooooooooong time, it's not some car crash it's a galaxy crash! These behemoths like to take their time with everything, I think the whole event will take a billion years from start to almost settled but I might be off by some millions of years from recent estimates, I might even be off by the total time anything human-like has walked the Earth, 60ish million years, yeah, on this scale our entire existence can be folded into an error margin. I truly don't think most humans comprehend this. And sometimes I wonder if the universe couldn't even comprehend our tiny short existence either.

Rob Mac aircraft and satellites

Heed the Seen Satellites can not change direction. They orbit the earth. He may be seeing a naked eye double optical.

Stars do not move in an irregular speed. Their speed is the same throughout the year. You're seeing something else.

Thankyou. The movement lately that you describe was off the charts the other night. satellites that speed up get brighter change direction and are way further away than aircrafts..... When these mainstreamers not mention what i see literally every night i look up it infuriates me

Webs solar day

Have you ever been in a plane? You feel the force of gravity as the plain accelerate but once it reaches the desired speed there is not such feeling of gravity force. Same happens with earth speed, we don't feel it because we're rotating at the same speed.

Do you not understand? The earth rotates once per day. The surface speed doesn't change that. the sky rotate once per day. Miles per hour has nothing to do with it

Have a look now. I see your comment is a year old.I bet you see more than those 5-6.There are at least 12 now.They were in same location they were a year ago,only now they are 'active'.They move right-left,up-down,in circular motions,correct?!....wtf are they?!

Did you photo these circumpolar stars?

because polaris and all the other stars are so far away that due to paralax the movement is pretty much unnoticable

That could be the International Space Station?

Size of a star, no blinking, moving ab the speed of a plane, and usually dies out after a minute or so

I've never seen them change direction before, but they usually go in random directions when I see them so 90% chance its not a satellite

@@dylanenglish9653 thats exactly how satelites look ur definition fits one perfectly

Same, but a star, not a ball of light but like a red colour North Star! Fully red in colour. And it moved in one direction only.

Well, when you have some guys at 32 years still living at home with Mummy and Daddy, and lay about playing bloody video games all the day long.....Astronomy 101 would be totally new info.

Take them at different times.

btw it is 1 star moving and moving from left to right

Me too .. spiritual?

Do they move at a pace of approximately 1000 miles per hour? Because the stars I see make one rotation per day. That is a lot slower than 1000 miles per hour!

Jim Keller visibility of certain constellations depend on latitude and time of year. southern cross, magellanic clouds, winter circle, summer triangle, the dippers

YaMarnis Can you see the Big Dipper or Polaris from your latitude? I can't see the Southern Cross or Magellanic Clouds from California.

They do haven't different perspectives. Also if you were in Jerusalem you would see Draco's head disappear below horizon, while in North America it doesn't.

Christopher Morrissey flathead can't spell. lulz

Christian Olea Star trails around 2 and only 2 poles debunk your flatworld.
