(一)維基百科的資料，有關自行的敘述早期的天文學家（公元400年的馬克羅比烏斯（ Macrobius））曾經懷疑恆星有自行。但是直到1718年愛德蒙·哈雷注意到天狼星、大角星和畢宿五的位置與約1850年前的古希臘天文學家伊巴谷所描述的位置有半度以上的偏差，才得到證實[24]。
「自行」這個名詞源自法文的propre，意思是「歸屬於」，所以在天文學中沒有「不當運動」這樣的名詞[1]。
在2005年發表的研究報告，現代天文學家已測出第一個外星系（三角座星系）的自行運動數據。

Considerations on the Change of the Latitude of some of the principal fixt Stars
By Edmund Halley, R.S.Sec.
Philosophical Transactions, vol. 30 (for the years 1717-1719), 736-738, 1720
Having of late had occasion to examine the quantity of the Precession of the Equinoctial Points, I took the pains to compare the Declinations of the fixt Stars delivered by Ptolomy, in the 3d Chapter of the 7th Book of his Almag. as observed by Timocharis and Aristyllus near 300 Years before Christ, and by Hipparchus about 170 Years after them, that is about 130 Years before Christ, with what we now find: and by the result of very many Calculations, I concluded that the fixt Stars in 1800 Years were advanced somewhat more than 25 degrees in Longitude, or that the Precession is somewhat more than 50" per ann. But that with so much uncertainty, by reason of the imperfect Observations of the Ancients, that I have chosen in my Tables to adhere to the even proportion of five Minutes in six Years, which from other Principles we are assured is very near the Truth. But while I was upon this Enquiry, I was surprised to find the Latitudes of three of the principal Stars in Heaven directly to contradict the supposed greater Obliquity of the Ecliptick, which seems confirmed by the Latitudes of most of the rest; they being set down in the old Catalogue, as if the Plain of the Earth Orb had changed its Situation, among the fixt Stars, about 20' since the time of Hipparchus. Particularly all the Stars in Gemini are put down, those to the Northward of the Ecliptick, with so much less Latitude than we find, and those to the Southward with so much more Southerly Latitude. Yet the three Stars Palilicium or the Bulls Eye, Sirius and Arcturus do contradict this Rule directly: for by it, Palilicium being in the days of Hipparchus in about 10 gr. of Taurus ought to be about 15 Min. more Southerly than at prsent, and Sirius being then in about 15 of Gemini ought to be 20 Min. more Southerly than now; yet è contra Ptolomy places the first 20 Min. and other 22 more Northerly in Latitude than we now find them. Nor are these errors of Transcription, but are proved to be right by the declinations of them set down by Ptolomy, as observed by Timocharis, Hipparchus and himself, which shew that those Latitudes are the same as those Authors intended. As to Arcturus, he is too near the Equinoctial Colure, to argue from him concerning the change of the Obliquity of the Ecliptick, but Ptolomy gives him 33' more North Latitude than he now has; and that greater Latitude is likewise confirmed by the Declinations delivered by the abovesaid Observers. So then all these three Stars are found to be above half a degree more Southerly at this time than the Ancients reckoned them. When on the contrary at the same time the bright Shoulder of Orion has in Ptolomy almost a degree more Southerly Latitude than at present. What shall we say then? It is scarce credible that the Ancients could be deceived in so plain a matter, three Observers confirming each other. Again these Stars being the most conspicuous in Heaven, are in all probability the nearest to the Earth, and if they have any particular Motion of their own, it is most likely to be perceived in them, which in so long a time as 1800 Years may shew it self by the alternation of their places, though it be utterly imperceptible in the space of a single Century of Years. Yet as to Sirius it may be observed that Tycho Brahe makes him 2 Min. more Northerly than we now find him, whereas he ought to be above as much more Southerly from his Ecliptick, (whose Obliquity he makes 2 ½ greater than we esteem it at present) differing in the whole 4 ½ Min. One half of this difference may perhaps be excused, if refraction were not allowed in this Case by Tycho; yet two Minutes, in such a Star as Sirius, is somewhat too much for him to be mistaken.
But a further and more evident proof of this change is drawn from the Observation of the application of the Moon to Palilicium Anno Christi 509 Mart. 11°. when in the beginning of the Night the Moon was seen to follow that Star very near, and seemed to have Eclipsed it [... (a text in Greek)] i. e. Stella apposita erat parti per quam bis cabatur limbus Lunae illuminatus, as Bullialdus, to whom we are beholden for this Ancient Observation jas translated it. Now from the undoubted principles of Astronomy, it was impossible for this to be true at Athens, or near it, unless the Latitude of Palilicium were much less than we at this time find it. Vide Bullialdi Astr. Philolaica, pag. 172.
This Argument seems not unworthy of the Royal Society's Consideration, to whom I humbly offer the plain Fact as I find it, and would be glad to have their Opinion.
But whether it were really true that the Obliquity of the Ecliptick was, in the time of Hipparchus and Ptolemy, really 22 Min. greater than now, may well be questioned; since Pappus Alexandrinus, who lived but about 200 Years after Ptolemy, makes it the very same that we do. Vide Pappi Collect. Lib. VI. Prop. 35.

由於證實了恆星的確有【自行】，
也就是在地球上觀測恆星，把【歲差】、【周日運動】等種種因素排除後，
發現【恆星本身仍然在運動】，故稱為【自行】。
註：【自行】所需要排除的因素，請詳見本篇【四、地軸偏動：】裡頭有作說明
因為【恆星的自行】需要排除【地軸偏動】、【歲差】
所以我把它放在一起
這樣 足以證明了某人所說的【歲差】因素，並不是恆星會動的主要因素。
而是
【恆星本身的確會運動】。他還在哪邊亂扯..... 硬ㄠ
真不知羞恥 臉皮厚到比萬里長城還厚....
