From the perspective of a photon emitted by a distant galaxy 13 billion years ago, the journey across the universe took zero seconds. The exact moment of its birth and the exact moment it hits your eye are the exact same instant in time. Does knowing that our reality is illuminated by timeless, immortal ghosts change the way you look at the world? Drop your existential thoughts down below. 👇
