Blue shift, it’s moving towards you, the photons are being “compressed” to a higher, bluer frequency. Redshift, the light is being “stretched” to a lower, redder frequency. Both only noticeable at significant fractions of the spped of light, relativistic speed.
Something ominous about the post is that a cosmic object that is moving towards you at a steady rate is consided “blueshifted” in the past tense, it’s velocity is steady. If a galaxy is “Blueshifting” in the present tense, then that galzy is somehow accelerating at you, which is impossible unless it’s under direct control by an entity, presumably a kardeshev level 3 civilization.
Isn’t the rate of expansion in the universe increasing, and at an uneven rate at that? Meaning it could just as easily be an as of yet unknown natural phenomenon?
So blue is moving toward you?
I was always a bit confused with the explanations in high school. But I also got a D in physics so maybe I’m just dumb.
