Thanks, mine is a new technique in Astronomy. Before, when anyone
asked the
question whether a distant object was moving towards or away from an
observer,
they were routinely given as answer either a redshift or blueshift.

What I want is a technique that is answering the question without
involving the
Doppler shift. I want an independent method of answering that
question.

And the technique involves a "eclipsing of the image at the telescope"
so that
in a future time, we repeat the eclipsing and see if the image has
grown bigger
or smaller from the last checkup. If the size increases over time,
that is breaches
the eclipse of a past time, then the object is moving towards Earth.

I suspect, Enrico, that half of all the quasars are moving towards
Earth, and that
their redshift is irrelevant to their motion towards Earth.
