Prompt
Since around the time of Kant, the noumenon / phenomenon distinction is the distinction between the outer appearances of objects and how they come to be in the world to show that particular appearance. However, "how objects come to be" could be conceptualized as eternal ideas becoming objects as Plato talked about, or as physical processes becoming objects. Is there a term which is like "noumenon" but does not mean an idea and only means a physical object before anything interacts with it to get information about it, as with a distant star that might take years to send an image of itself to earth and at its own location would have continued to change in that time? The phenomenon is the image of the star on earth, the noumenon can conceivably be some perfect ideal representation of a sun-like star (etc.). What is a philosophy term for the object that changed out of sight but has not sent its image to earth yet?

Usage notes
- You are allowed to post LLM prompts as prototype pages (the part you wrote manually), as long as they stay in one of the
... talk: namespaces and there are no direct quotes from generated text. Concisely describing abstract propositions that turn up several times inside response text — or quoting source texts written by humans — is fine.
- It's recommended you include all of the AI's "references", such that each prompt becomes a sort of 'combination nickel' that becomes a convenient place for collecting twenty or so links that answer the question. If any of the pages referenced are already nickel pages, you should link the nickel page.
- None of the commentary on these pages after the motif names / arrows is AI.
