I was reading somewhere an explanation for why the night skies are not totally whited out by the brazillions of galaxies and stars in the universe. Spoiler: it’s cuz some of them are so far away their light hasn’t reached us yet, and some are moving away from us so their light will be mega-redshifted. So if a star or galaxy is far enough away & moving away from us, will it wink out at some point when it zooms beyond the threshold?
