[Tenacious 1]

I recently surmised that light we can see is dated and to some extent limited by the speed at which matter and light in the universe travels. Matter traveling in opposite directions at near the speed of light (as is surmised at the time of the big bang), may not appear at the correct current or past distance.

If this is true, there is a limited bubble of what we might be able to see directly. It also explains our odd theorized shape of the universe with respect to the origin of the theoretical big bang.

The big question.....Does motion affect the speed of light relative to a static point in space? Or is light speed truly constant?

"The big question.....Does motion affect the speed of light relative to a static point in space? Or is light speed truly constant?"

Light is subject to the Doppler effect. The issue is the inertial reference. The velocity of light is constant and absolute, but not relative to everything else.

Answer, motion does not affect the speed of light. However, it would affect your perception of the light. It is called the Doppler effect.

Actually you want to phrase the question just slightly differnt ——light speed is NOT constant depending upon the medium through which it tracels. In VACCUO the theory ( and most everything we can measure) says that the speend of light is a constant, represented in several different equations as “c”

Does motion affect the speed of light relative to a static point in space?

It is my understanding that a 'static point in space' is not a possibility. A 'point in space' would be an acceptable argument.

Gravity is faster than light. Though that wasn't your big question.
