great second point, laws of physics aren't broken by any means.


Well, the theories go that to travel FTL, you would either bend spacetime and create a wormhole between two points, or, you would stretch or shrink the space in front of you and space would act as a moving walkway at like an airport, allowing you to travel faster than light while not actually travelling faster than light.


However, we're a long way off, since the majority of us can't even decide to stop killing each other over who's invisible sky daddy is the best.

anyone got any feedback?

i don't believe so. I think we got optics thought out pretty well. Hasn't it been proven time and time again in countless experiments. If we got optics wrong. So many of our experiments here on earth would be incorrect or yield incorrect results.

the entire universe is ~14 billion years old.
the cool thing about looking at photo's is that we're actually looking in the past. that photo of those galaxies that were 13 billion light years away. we're actually looking 13 billion years in the past. soo crazy.
