Huh? Wherever did you get the idea that I said the 'stellar universe' was in motion? It is, of course, but only over very large time scales...

I'm talking, naturally, about the apparent motions caused by parallax! It is completely true that you cannot possibly see those motions naked-eye. You cannot detect them through your telescope. They are TINY, less than the apparent diameter of a star, and even then it takes a full 6 months to detect.

I think that perhaps your English comprehension is causing you problems here...
