Had a thought last night before going to bed after viewing a photo of a distant galaxy.
How funny is it that the light from distant stars has been traveling for millions or even billions of years and relatively speaking only at the very, very, very last second did humans invent the camera or telescope to see it as it hits earth.

I understand your thinking. Just like if there were aliens are far away planets many light years away, and they had a detailed enough telescope to see earth clearly, they may see dinosaurs or cave men, etc and think we were/are so primitive.

Meh… Think of the countless wave-particles that traveled before man had the capacity capture a camera or the countless that were just missing seeing because of .0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000098 of a millimeter angle.
