Sure, they're both propagating through space-time until one of them collapses ;)

It was popular Aztec belief that the Sun needed to be fed human hearts
in sacrifice if it was to continue to move through the sky.  If any
genius would-be astronomy had suggested the Earth revolved around the
Sun, they would likely have been the next sacrifice.  How much of
QM/MWI/Simulation/etc. is likely to be the same kind of popular idea
until we come up with something better?
