Pretty early on into studying and researching space , me being 26 now I was 10 when I started . But I’ll never forget the day I was doing something completely random then out of nowhere I thought : is time even real? What is time really and why are we bounded to it?
Honestly just thinking about the fact that , the light we see from stars today , that when we look at that we technically looking back in time knowing that light took God knows how long millions maybe trillions of years to even reach us. Light speed being the fastest form of travel in the universe and realizing that ( yes Ik anything with mass could never technically travel anywhere close to light speed ) even if we managed to travel at that speed you could still be traveling for thousands of years just trying to the source of the light we see i.e. a star . The numbers get so big you can see how trying to even comprehend something like that would destroy our brain 😂😂 . Am I missing anything?
