An illustration of Relativistic Aberration. At rest (left) a sphere emits photons in all direction (not all are shown). If the sphere is moving at relativistic speeds (that is close to the speed of light, shown on the right) then we would observe these same photons to be emitted from a cone centered around the direction of motion.
