Relativistic Aberration and Doppler Shift

Description

Suppose a specific number of evenly distributed light rays is incident on an observer at rest For a moving observer at the given location with scaled velocity these light rays appear to be tilted in the direction of motion aberration as indicated by the yellow triangle As a result of the Doppler effect light that comes from the direction of motion is blueshifted while light from the opposite direction is redshifted
