Hypothetically, if a star was 5 million miles away from Earth, instantaneously 
traveled away from Earth along a linear line at the speed of light, maintained 
the speed of light, then instantaneously stopped at 10 million miles away from 
Earth, what would a spectator on Earth see during that time interval during 
which that star was traveling?
