Are we not receding along with our own Moon to pluto ?

At a relatively small rate until God decides to change gravity and physics.
Matt. 24:29 "And immediately after the tribulations of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of heaven shall be shaken".
Luke 21: 25-26
Rev. 6: 12-13
Joel 2:31

What is the fine or punishment if you get ticketed for excessive speed at that rate?
If nothing can go faster than the speed of light - how could they catch you to ticket you?????

I think your math is off, by a factor of about 10. QUITE a distance, regardless.

I saw the International Space Station two weeks ago.
That was pretty far away!

Thank you, you are quite right. It should be 5,865,696,000,000.0 miles per year, missed the last "0" on the 12 power of ten. Thanks. Almost 6 trillion miles per year.

My wife does that every time she gets behind the wheel!
I have the opposite problem. If she's driving, I usually have her pull over & let me out so I can run on ahead & let everyone know were coming.

You are not seeing the actual star but just the light that may have been traveling for millions of years.

Because the stars are moving away from us, physics tells their light is red shifted. How is that measured as there is no nearly adjacent star that is not moving and whose light is not red-shifted, so there is no other light to compare spectrographically.

Not all stars, galaxies are moving away, some are "blue shifted." The standard reference is the nearest star, our Sun.

We used to do something similar on our railways, with a man running ahead waving a red flag. The speed of commuter trains hasn't improved much since. Regarding my wife's speeding she aims to reach the speed of 'dark' as it is always there before the light.

I didn't think it would hurt your feelings so bad? Whether wrong or right, we shall know one day, and I believe that day is fast approaching.

A lot of smoke, haze, would do the same thing. Do remember that Jesus was caught up in a cloud. Also remember that a cloud led the Israelites through the desert after they left bondage in Egypt. And that a cloud formed inside the Most Holy part of Solomon's Temple.

The Hebrew people left 400 years of slavery out of Egypt and God made them wonder in the wilderness until all the original people had died except Josuha and Caleb, for the peoples sins in the desert/disobeying his commands.
