Heraclitus‚ like many of the beginning philosophers was a monist. His interpretation of the one reality was fire; however‚ this is not to be taken literally.

Because most of the times we find them by not actually looking at them but by the effects they produce mainly on the star around which they are rotating. It is because planets look like just a dull spec of light through a telescope. The distance between us and a nearby planet is very large.

Q1) Last night you saw the star Betelgeuse exactly on your eastern horizon at 5:47 PM. Two students are discussing their answer to the question "At 5:47 PM tonight where will you see Betelgeuse?"
