Care to explain how the star is going to break warp 0.9?A star with a distance of 1 light year would have to orbit the observer at 3.14x the speed of light to get 180 degrees away from its apparent position."At least you agree that a stars apparent position is not its actual position. Ethan seems to think that even the most distant star is exactly where we see it."
No. Luckily that is not what I am claiming : ) Although I have read some serious hypothesis that make the claim that the speed of light was faster just after the big bang.
I am simply trying to explain that the apparent position (where you see them) of celestial objects is different from their actual position. I never would have guessed that this simple concept would be so hard to explain. I now have even more sympathy for Giordano Bruno.
