Default Why are the 'Fixed Stars' so FIXED?

HW@....(Henri Wilson) wrote in news7bn33hpiiv00fsmjpqh053j3n5v280lja@

A radio signal is a mixture in which groups of individual photons form sine
shaped 'bunches' which move along. ..somewhat like a water wave except the
photons move back and forth rather than up and down.


An unmodulated radio signal is monchromatic.
The photons are phase and frequency coherent.
The photons travel outward from the antenna.

This has given me an idea. Do the individual photons move or remain at
basically the same location?
I'll have to make an animation of this.


Photons move at c. They do NOT remain at the same location.
