I like to think of this as the whole sky always being “there”, but the Earth blocks about half of it ALL THE TIME! Alternately, if we look straight “up”, we’re always pointed towards a different part of same sky.
“LIGHTS ALL ASKEW IN THE HEAVENS; Men of Science More or Less Agog Over Results of Eclipse Observations. EINSTEIN THEORY TRIUMPHS Stars Not Where They Seemed or Were Calculated to be, but Nobody Need Worry.”
–Special Cable to THE NEW YORK TIMES. November 10, 1919
