We KNOW that?  We SEE the universe expanding away from us,

The problem is your DEFECTIVE logic, which is nought but your BELIEF 
that the center is "somewhere else".  It is ILLOGICAL and ANTI-SCIENTIFIC.

Science is based on OBSERVATION, that's how we contact REALITY.

What?
The center point is the sun!

If your theory doesn't agree with experiment, it's WRONG.  
Your FANTASY.

Yes, but we would ALSO see the same thing if the universe was expanding away 
from some other point.  I've explained that before.  All that is needed is for the
Big Bang to  expand like unleashing springs, instead of like an explosion.  The
first springs released travel faster than the next springs.  That will result in 
every place in the observable universe to seem like everything is moving away
from that place.

It is totally logical and totally scientific.  There are NO REMNANTS of anything
that could CAUSE everything else in the universe to move away from us.

Right.  PLUS you need to UNDERSTAND what you see.  There is nothing on
earth or near the sun that could push away the rest of the universe.

That is only an ILLUSION.  People on planets  around every star would see
the same thing.

new to me. However, as EM you 2D integrate the amplitude over surface, 
which becomes weaker further away from the sources. However as photons, 
the probability amplitude *has_to* flattens and fall, further away from 
the source. I can't really interpret the later regarding the macro_scale.

it's new to you because I'm refering to...Before the big bang, whence
they came from, not After the big bang.

You OBVIOUSLY do not know anything about the big bang. This is
COMPLETELY WRONG, as there is no "point of the big bang".

Because you're looking at a list of ELEMENTARY physics textbooks.
Photons are an aspect of QED, which is an advanced topic that students
don't learn about until graduate school. (There's no point in giving you
a list of such textbooks, as you don't understand the elementary books
you claim to have "read".)

They are all wrong. I cannot help it if idiots and know-nothings
outnumber experts, so Google prioritizes their nonsense over correct
information. And I cannot help it that you are so stupid you don't
recognize your own incompetence in distinguishing lies and
misinformation from correct descriptions.

Yes. (Well, light travels along null geodesics, which in the curved
spacetime of the world we inhabit cannot really be called "straight lines".)

Assertions like this are not facts. Rather, the photon was emitted at a
particular point in spacetime; "stationary" simply does not apply to
such points, as they have zero temporal duration.

No, your eyes may have traversed the text, but you CLEARLY have never
read it with anything approaching understanding.

> Every photon that is emitted is emitted from a stationary point in

Assertions are not facts. In fact, in our current best models of the
world, photons are emitted from a point in spacetime, to which
"stationary" simply does not apply.

> the first postulate says nothing about any preferred frame.

SURE IT DOES! It's just that you don't understand any of this.
Einstein's first postulate directly states that there is no
such thing as a "preferred frame" (in the sense that such a frame
appears explicitly in the laws of physics).

Every time you claim something is "stationary", you are implicitly
invoking such a preferred frame, that the first postulate says does not
exist.

> How do we know the point of emission is stationary?

"We" don't -- it is only YOU who fantasizes this, because you don't know

You just keep demonstrating that you know NOTHING AT ALL about the big
bang -- there is no "stationary point of the big bang", because those
concepts are incommensurate.

You REALLY need to learn how to read, and how to understand what you
have read.

not true, it travels spherically. Even lasers travels in steradians, hence 
still spherically, and gets "lesser", or rather spread spherically. I 
wonder how it relates to photons.

Stars, the origin of stars...whence they came from...the Stationary Points in Space,

had no curvature in space then.


The Big Dipper which existed at the big bang contains

4 stars at points perpendicular to each other. The other handle of the big dipper simply lost is way.


Each star then existed at a Stationary Point in Space, like billions of big dippers without the handles.


things were in order then..

I understand it is a  little differcult for yous to understand and see
the center of the universe...

Look at a woman..
Where is her Center? ..the focal point, 
also known at the...entertainment center?

Where life comes from?

The center of a woman.

The only thing you focus on...


Now, where is the center of the universe?


Where is the focus of the universe?

It would have to be where chemical operations and activity are taking
place.

Where life is.



Now, where is the center of the universe?

For the others the evidence is obvious but how do you know that Milky Way
is moving, let alone its speed and direction?

This way we can measure the distance to the Andromeda galaxy but the
distance does not change enough to observe motion so how is its motion
observed and measured?

We cannot compare photon arrival rates on Earth to their emission rates
in Andromeda Galaxy as we were not there two and half million years ago
to measure it. Frequencies of emissions and absorptions by atoms are known
so it is possible to compare them to the observed frequencies and determine
the blue shift. But what is the connection of blue shift to the motion
of light source? The article https://vixra.org/pdf/2204.0016v2.pdf says
that there is no connection. If the only way that this motion is ever
observed is invalid then there is no justification to the claim that
the Andromeda galaxy is moving.

It only tells the result but does not say how those results are obtained
or why we should believe them. But of course we already know that light
from a moving object is blueshifted and that's how we know that the
Andromed galaxy is approaching.

Are you certain that every element of the milky way galaxy is moving as 
a unit?

"Sprinkled around the disk and the bulge are globular clusters,
collections of ancient stars, as well as approximately 40 dwarf galaxies
that are either orbiting or colliding with the larger Milky Way
according to a statement from ESA."

And:

"There is also evidence that the Milky Way collided with several smaller
galaxies during its evolution. In 2018, a team of Dutch astronomers
found a group of 30,000 stars moving in sync through the sun's
neighborhood in the opposite direction to the rest of the stars in the
data set. The motion pattern matched what scientists had previously seen
in computer simulations of galactic collisions. These stars also
differed in color and brightness, which suggested they came from a
different galaxy"

And there's a lot more meat...

We know the earth is orbiting the sun because of how the locations of stars
change between summer and winter.  

We know how gravity keeps the earth in its orbit around the sun.

We know that the stars in the Milky Way galaxy are orbiting something at
the center that has the mass to cause all the orbiting.  It is a black hole.
There appears to be a black hole at the center of every galaxy.

We know that the Milky Way and Andromeda are moving because EVERYTHING
in the observable universe appears to be moving.  If they are not moving in orbits,
they are moving toward or away from each other.  Most galaxies are moving away
from each other, evidently due to the Big Bang sending everything off in different
directions away from the point of the Big Bang.

Knowing how gravity works allows us to DEDUCE what must have happened in
the past to cause what we see today.

Right, the orbit is what says the Earth is moving. There is no equivalent
for the motion of the Milky Way, so you can’t assert how much the Milky Way
is moving, except in reference to other galaxies.

No, you don’t know that. All you know is that they are moving RELATIVE TO
EACH OTHER. But in any examination of relative motion, you cannot tell
whether one party is stationary and the other moving, or both moving.

More importantly, as night turns into day, you are CHANGING your inertial
reference system. *ANY* motion that involves a change in speed or direction
involves a CHANGE in inertial reference system. And so you, a single
observer, are constantly changing which inertial reference frames you are
comoving with.

There are an infinite number of reference frames.  In this case, you are 
using a reference frame in which you are stationary and Andromeda is 
moving.  The reality you see from where you are.  Of course everyone on 
earth will see almost the exact same thing as you when observing 
Andromeda. It is equally valid, however, to use a frame where Andromeda 
is stationary and you are moving. An observer in Andromeda would use 
such a frame.

> I am just trying

 From your own reference frame. 100% understandable.

And here, you have subconsciously done the mathematics of physics to see 
how far Andromeda has moved in those 2 1/2 million years to conclude 
Andromeda is no longer where you see Andromeda.  So, from your reference 
frame, that point is not in Andromeda, but somewhere "behind" Andromeda.

 From an observer in Andromeda, using himself as stationary in a frame, 
after 2 1/2 million years, the point is on a neutron star/black hole in 
Andromeda, the remains of the star that went supernova. I am ignoring 
the rotation of Andromeda and whatever proper motion the supernova 
remnant has wrt. the observer for this.  If you do take those into 
account, the supernova remnant has moved during that time, so the origin 
point will be some (probably) empty space, but located within the 
Andromeda galaxy, and the supernova remnant is no longer there.

Of course, in the frame of the supernova remnant itself, the event took 
place at itself, the remnant of the supernova event.

Only from your reference.  Events, such as a supernova explosion have a 
4 coordinates (x,y,z,t) in any frame, but each frame has different 
(x,y,z,t) for the events.  You are trying to hang on to your particular 
(x,y,z) for the event and calling them special. They're special to you, 
but not to an Andromeda based observer.

First of all, that paragraph is pure physics and reality, not math.
Second, there is a whole universe out there making observations.

Like it or not, physics is full of mathematics, even if you are not 
aware of it. Indirectly, you used mathematics subconsciously to figure 
out how far Andromeda moved in 2.5 million years and concluded that the 
point is no longer located within Andromeda.

Or rather, pure physics and gedanken bullshit, not math. 
And speaking  of math, it's always good to remind that
your bunch of idiots had to announce its oldest part
false, becuse the postulates of your idiot guru couldn't
agree with it.

Nope.  It is exactly on point.

I DON"T CARE about what an Observer in Andromeda would see.  It has NOTHING
to do with the question.  The question is:  Did the light that I see come from
a STATIONARY POINT IN SPACE?

I didn't do any mathematics.  I read in a book what astronomers had observed
and calculated.  I have no reason to question their mathematics.

I DON"T GIVE A DAMN WHAT AN OBSERVER IN ANDROMEDA SEES!!!!!
I'm just trying to understand what I see.

Yes.  And that is ALL I am interested in.

WHO CARES?????  I don't!

Right.  I let someone else do the math.  All I am wondering about is the
implications of that math.  The implication is that the light I see came
from STATIONARY POINTS IN SPACE.

you never know unless compared to something similar known to be 
stationary, or moving to a certain speed.
