When we consider the positions of stars, the first observation is that all heavenly bodies, stars, planets, moons, etc, are constantly moving at very high speeds. Our own Sun for example, is moving through space at about 30 kilometres per second in the direction of the star Vega. Other stars are moving along with their galaxies at astronomical speeds. The speed of far away galaxies can be derived from their red shift. It was found that the most distant galaxies are travelling at speeds approaching 80% of the speed of light. This amounts to about 240,000 kilometres per second. If we chart the position of every star inside such far away galaxies, at every kilometre, we would have 240,000 positions inside every one second!
How many positions would we obtain by charting the kilometre positions of every star, inside every galaxy, for the last 13.7 billion years, which is the estimated age of the universe?We note that the word used in 56:75 is "positions" (plural) which speaks of the continuously changing positions of all the stars in the universe.via quran-islam.org
Scientists say we see this galaxy as it was millions of years ago, but as for its real location, we can not comprehend because the light it transmits takes millions of years until it reaches us. This means that the real locations of the stars is known only to Allah, the Almighty, and that is why Allah took an oath by them, Allah stated in Glorious Quran AL-WAQIA (THE EVENT, THE INEVITABLE) 56:75, ‘Furthermore I call to witness the setting of the Stars,’ Who has informed Allah Messenger this truth about the cosmos?

It means locations i.e their locations in the past. That is because what we see here from earth is not the stars itself but their locations in the past since light emitting from the stars need years to reach our site on earth due to relativity.
In the Quran God says
“I swear by the locations of the stars . It is indeed a very great oath, if you but knew. Most certainly it is a Quran most honorable. (Al-Wāqi‘ah 56:75–77).”
In this part from the Quran God says to the people living at that time (about 500 AD) I swear by the locations of the stars and if you just knew what this means you will indeed knew that it is a great oath.
That is because at that time people didn't knew that what they really see is not the stars but their locations in the past since light takes years to reach earth.
BLACK HOLES: MIGHTY OATH by caner taslaman
75- So, I swear by the place where the stars fall. 76- And that is indeed a mighty oath, if you but knew. 56-The Inevitable, 75-76 The expression “place where... fall” (mawqi) also mentioned in the sura, The Cave (Kehf), verse 53, means the place where the sinners fall, i.e., hell. The root of this word is “WaQa’Aa” and it means the action of falling, a happening and an incidence. Stars perpetuate their existence with hydrogen bombs exploding in them. During these explosions a portion of matter is transferred into energy, emitting heat of immeasurably high temperature. Conversion of one gram of matter into energy may be obtained by burning two million kilograms of coal. For instance, in our sun-which is but a star of medium size-four billion kilograms of matter are converted into energy every second. A star uses but a small portion of its matter as fuel, and when this fuel is exhausted, it dies off. The lifetime that God designed for the living had also been apportioned for the stars. As new stars are born somewhere in the universe, the old ones bid farewell, as if saying: “We pass away, but our Creator is for ever abiding and his Creation is perpetual.”
FALLING OF STARS AND MIGHTY OATH The place where the stars fall is stressed by an oath coupled with the epithet “mighty.” We shall see incommensurately great mathematical figures in connection with the death of stars whose fuel is exhausted.
The great numerical values in the universe come about at the death of stars to which reference is made with the following words in the Quran, “And that is indeed a mighty oath, if you but knew.” Everybody versed in physics knows that one of the most interesting phenomena in the universe is the black hole that comes about in the wake of the death of massive stars whose magnitudes are greater than three times the size of our sun. Having depleted their fuel, these cosmic bodies die, collapsing inward upon themselves. The giant stars that contract possess a great gravitational force. This force is so immense that even light, with its velocity of approximately 300,000 km/sec, cannot escape it; these black holes absorb even the light that passes by. Later on, a great many planets and stars are attracted by this gravitational force. Black holes also constitute “the place where the stars fall.” The existence of black holes is deduced from the fact that they attract as whirlpools the matter of other nearby stars and emit Xrays, swallowing all the lights and stars around. The most interesting studies of Stephen Hawking are on black holes. Stephen Hawking discovered the radiation that came to be called the Hawking Radiation by establishing the fact that a black hole could emit radiation while conforming to the physical laws of energy. The black holes formed by the collapse of stars by their gravitational force are in perfect conformity with verses 75-76 of the sura, The Inevitable. At the time of the descent of the Quran, the end of a star by being transformed into a black hole was something unknown. A star turning into a black hole and the stages it goes through are very interesting phenomena. Stars that run out of fuel do not immediately collapse. They grow in size at first, as if inflated. Their temperature, around 15 million degrees, rises up to 100 million degrees. They are first transformed into red giants or super giants. The area covered by a super giant is so vast that it can easily contain more than sixty million suns. The immensity of these numerical values is reminiscent of the magnitudes indicated in 76th verse of the sura. Some of the supernovas contract and turn into white dwarf stars whose mass equal the size of a human being but weigh 10 million kilograms. Still greater stars become neutron stars (pulsars), stars supposed to form in the final stage of the stellar evolution; these consist of a super dense mass mainly of neutrons having a strong attractive force. The matter in the neutron stars is extremely dense. Just to give you an idea, a teaspoonful of this matter would weigh one billion tons. While all these spectacular events are taking place, we, on our planet, continue to sleep, run and talk, quite unaware of them. So is our life: rendered possible by forces beyond our ken via unchallengeable miracles of the quran

- stars are missiles(throwing ) / meteors are stars ???
- The inconsistency of those who seek error in the Quran is to say that there is an error because the stars are moving, and then claim that the stars are fixed, and then say that there is another error.
