The laws of physics are not dependent upon whether we are watching or not.

Stars shine , and according to science. They are not shinning also.

Stars in great distance are relvealing their light though time.

So a star may be shinning now, but infact this is an event that has come to pass.
So the star isn't shinning at all.


If a star is 10,000 Light years away , it takes that long for us to see it shine.

so we will see it shine for as long as it did, but have to wait 10,000 years to see it.

by the time we see it, the star would have change by then, or even burn out. But we have to wait till we see that also.


A star that was buring for 5,000 years at 12,000 light years away
Will seem to be shinning for us for 5000 years where infact its dead for 7000 years.



I confused myself a little then, but I got it all written down...up here ( points to head )
