The Astrology of Space
The Location of Our Sun
Keep in mind that although it takes some nine
minutes for light to reach us from the Sun, it takes a
period of around four years for us to receive light from
even the nearest of stars. When we consider what we
see as we gaze toward the GC, it becomes difficult to
comprehend. We are looking at starlight that may
have been traveling to reach us for 50-70,000 years!
In other words we are looking at stars as they were a
long, long time ago. We are looking into the past at
the universe then. Who knows if these stars even
exist now and, if so, what kind of light they give off
today. We will not know for another 50,000 years of
so. The stars in the anti-center direction are not so
distant from us and we have a more up-to-date idea
of how the galaxy is when we look in this direction.
