If the Sun were traveling around the galactic center along with companion stars (all in circular orbits) , as depicted in Figure 22-17 (Universe, 11th ed.) , from which of the stars in that diagram would you measure a Doppler shift of their light? (Hint: Think about relative velocities and orbital velocities at different orbital distances from the galactic center.)
