earth is not orbiting the sun

The reason stars don't appear to change their relative positions in the constellations is simply because they are so far apart and so far from Earth that any movement is imperceptible to humans due to the vast times scales which would be required to detect movement.

Precession doesn't change the relative positions of stars in the constellations; rather it changes when a given constellation will rise and set at a given time of year. So while the stars in Orion will still look very similar to how they appear now in 13,000 years' time, the constellation Orion as a whole will rise about 6 months earlier than it does now, due to the wobbling of the Earth's axis like a top (which completes a full cycle in about 26,000 years).

Edited: fixed typo in word "earlier"

If time is an illusion in our universe and if any type of change can be noticed only with time variable included - maybe that is the reason why The Heavens seem not to alter (or just a little bit) at all. Our galaxy in our universe has time because we choose it like that but could it be that, in the other galaxies all around us if time does not exists, we actually cannot see them changing from our level off consciousness limited with perception of time?

Yep, we are what we are. Or as Popeye says: I yam what I yam. For myself, I have thought about no time, therefore no distance to the point that I cannot comprehend what that is, or what it may be like... Speculation has been fun for me, and I also think that lends to wishful thinking. And wishful thinks tends to distract from reality. Whatever that is. fwiw

Oh yes The Distance - I wanted to mention it in my previous post because it seems to me that where is no time there could be another concept.... uh this is very intricate but I can tell that I was always suspicious when official astronomers mention light years in big numbers; like somebody do not want us to even think about real Space Quest of any kind:"Forget it people - that is just Impossible" & "We are so ALONE"

And yet, in our part of the universe, while time and space may be an illusion, it's real enough to Third Density beings. And Third Density beings have calculated that it would indeed take many hundreds to millions of years for light to traverse between various galaxies and Earth, at least according to our perception of time. And thus, to Third Density beings, those galaxies are most certainly unreachable. Of course this says nothing of the experience for Fourth Density or higher beings.
