FWIW, I agree in my "take" that the solar system and stars look the same today as they did 6000 years ago. The sentence after the one you quoted says I see both statements are true and compatible due to the effect the expansion of the universe has on the perception of time depending on the observer’s point of view.
The next three paragraphs and links explain why I came to that conclusion - and the remaining narrative goes into more detail.
I was just fitting that into the 6000 year old earth hypothesis. I think that as we keep digging up the ground we will find the universe looked the same 30,000 years ago, too, although records that far back are still kind of scarce.
6000 years isn't really that long ago. If there is an unbroken chain of old men telling young children about the old days, say a 75 year old telling a 15 year old, throughout the years, we can cover that span with just 100 people. 30 people would take us back to thew time of Christ, and if they were all alive at once they could fit in one end of the dining room at Denny's. It's not so impressive as far as scale.
