New stars should be showing up in the sky as their light finally reaches the earth after millions of years? but we don't see that. all we see is stuff die.
If we put faith in our current understanding of stars, which could be completely wrong, it would take millions of years for a new star to form, so we wouldn't see them popping up, nor would we be able to see their evolution; we would just witness their current stage of evolution
