You can’t see Polaris because:
It never moves
It’s too far away to see
They tell us that Polaris is 48 times bigger than the sun. The sun is only a light-minute away and 48 times smaller. That’s right. What happens if you double the distance of the sun . . . it becomes a quarter of the size according to the inverse square law of light. If you doubled the distance again it becomes a quarter of that size. The distance is doubled again and it might look the size of an ordinary star? Right? Follow?
BUT . . . In order for Polaris to be the same size as our sun it would have to be 48 light-minutes away. But, it’s 227 million light minutes away. Could we see it, if it was that far away? That’s about 4.7 million TIMES farther away than they tell us it is to be the same size as the Sun. Twice as close would be 2.35 million. Twice as close as that would be 1.18 million. And to get to normal star size we would be at about 500,000 TIMES as far away. Or maybe 250,000 TIMES as far away (as they’re telling us). AS THEY ARE TELLING US.
Can we see Polaris? The star you see in outerspace, insane distances away, does not exist. You don’t see it. Stop thinking you see it.
What do you really see? Do you see the figment of NASA’s imagination or do you see what makes sense in the sky?
To sum it up: 48 times bigger and 227 million times farther away than the sun, yet we can see it. That’s a story.
This is what you’d see if you looked at Polaris through a P1000 camera:
That’s all for today.
Oh, yeah, Polaris never moves, ever in all of recorded history as we spin and zoom into infinite space. Forgot that part.
Okay, now we’re done. Have a great day!
