Star tracks in the ghost condensate

We consider the infrared modification of gravity by ghost condensate. Naively, in this scenario one expects sizeable modification of gravity at distances of order 1000 km, provided that the characteristic time scale of the theory is of the order of the Hubble time. However, we argue that this is not the case. The main physical reason for the conspiracy is a simple fact that the Earth (and any other object in the Universe) has velocity of at least of order 10^{-3}c with respect to the rest frame of ghost condensate. Combined with strong retardation effects present in the ghost sector, this fact implies that no observable modification of the gravitational field of nearby objects occurs. Instead, the physical manifestation of ghost condensate is the presence of ``star tracks'' -- narrow regions of space with growing gravitational and ghost fields inside -- along the trajectory of any massive object. We briefly discuss the possibilities to observe these tracks.
