True. And, if the universe is expanding as some of us believe, the center of the universe may always be in a different location. oops, I guess that's what you mean by it not being static.Gman wrote:Well... If we are on a spiral arm of our galaxy, that moves, then the point is rather moot where the center actually is. It's not like the Lebanon, Kansas could suddenly grow legs and move to another area of the world. It wouldn't be static, just as any other star or planet in the universe.RickD wrote: Gman, with the risk of playing devil's advocate, I don't believe the Earth would necessarily have to be located in the center of the Milky Way, to be in the center of the universe. The geographical center of America is in Lebanon, Kansas. But, Lebanon is not in the center of Kansas.
