If red shift indicates that all galaxies in the universe are moving away from us at close to the speed of light, why has the distance to them remained unchanged in my lifetime?

If it only rotates 360 degrees, when it has traced its orbit around the sun 180 degrees then at "noon" the designated point would be facing away from the sun. Is that correct or not? Thanks

If i were to wear sunglasses and was looking directly at the sun, which had exploded. Would i see the sun how it was 100's of years ago or i would see a flash and the destruction instantly ???

If the light takes 100's of years to get here then i think it would have the same effect. CORRECT ???

Every day at night I always look up into the stars and wonderif its possible to have a space station with artificial Atmosphere so there could be rain and snow and droughts just like earth? After pondering it for a couple of days i started to believe that it definitly could happen. I happened to watch Gundam Seed with the naturals and coordinators bc. they lived in the artificial atmosphere stations. After years of battling(cartoons are signs of future progress) if our military increased its production could it happen. But then the Saiyens had their planet destroyed along with Naruto who lives on a new world then ours. is there a way? In conclusion I feel that Canadians are simply retarded and lazy!!!!

According to a story featured on Yahoo today, "Scientists now estimate the universe to be about 13.7 billion years old (a figure that has seemed firm since 2003, based on measurements of radiation leftover from the Big Bang) and about 156 billion light-years wide. The new finding implies that the universe is instead about 15.8 billion years old and about 180 billion light-years wide."

Surely the decimal point in this story is in the wrong place. How could the universe be more than 10 times as wide (in light years) as the age of the universe? Either they have the decimal point in the wrong place or the stars are travelling away from each other through space several times faster than the speed of light.

In order to increase its orbit, a spaceship will fire its rockets in the direction of travel and against in order to deorbit. What would happen if rockets were fired opposite the force of gravity while in space?
