Ok holy fuck let me ramble about something cool. I was driving the other day and thinking about time and space, and here’s the thing: you know how there is that scientific theory that if you could travel at the speed of light, heading away from earth, then you looked back at earth with a super advanced telescope, you could technically see the dinosaurs?
Well here’s my newfound thought (and keep in mind, I study astrophysics as a hobby): but if you traveled at light speed a particular distance away from earth (but not far enough to see the dinosaurs), you could technically see yourself at five years old; you could see yourself five minutes ago; MEANING: in terms of light speed and distance, you are living out your entire past and present SIMULTANEOUSLY depending on a viewer’s distance from earth.
ISNT THAT INSANE !!!!!!!
