Totally agree with you about the movement of celestial objects in our Universe, but I'm trying paint a picture for a beginner who looks up at the night sky or his / her planetarium and notices that the star he was looking at 2 weeks a go has moved its position (I really don't care if its not scientifically correct) all I care about is helping these poor guys polar Align using their Synscan handcontrollers , the science and fact can then follow ( if their at all interested in that)
Cheers
