STORY SYNOPSIS:
SPEED OF LIGHT
Because Of The Speed Of Light, We Are All Living In The Past, Things We See Have Already Happened…
******
Giant Star Going Super Nova Exploding In To The Cosmos
HOT DYING STAR SENT THIS PICTURE MILLIONS OF YEARS AGO
The image from this hot dying star has been traveling to Planet Earth for millions of years.
We have no idea what it looks like now and probably has totally disintegrated into billions of solar particles adrift in interstellar space ready to be recycled into another young star just starting to form.
ALL WE SEE IS PAST HISTORY
Because the speed of light travels 186,000 miles per second, about 7.5 times around the earth in one second, every image we see is brought to us via light.
However, what you may think is instant visual is in fact delayed by the speed of light, it just looks instant.
For example, the Andromeda Galaxy is currently two million light years from here.
What you are seeing is what it looked like two million years ago.
The Andromeda galaxy could have blown up over a million years ago and you would not have know till now.
The computer screen you are watching is showing images a fraction of a second old.
The football player running down the field is sending us a picture the way it was a fraction of a second ago.
