  It’s how Doppler works.

  I don’t understand it enough to actually explain but Wiki does a pretty good job.

    The poster you are replying to is pointing out the inaccuracies that this comic didn’t consider relativistic effects.

    But does it affect the object that is emitting the wave?

    If you look at an object that is moving near the speed of light, it appears rotated, see en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terrell_rotation.
