What if the wise men kept walking after Jesus's birth?

This question comes from N. Murdoch, who was thinking about how the three wise men in the Christmas story followed a star to Bethlehem where they found the baby Jesus. The question is: what if you did walk towards a known star at a fixed speed? What path would you trace on the Earth?
