>>537195 so....how do we have a satellites 10 million light years away when it would take a few million years to travel 1 lightyear with existing technology? And even if we did have one out there, it would take another few million years for the pictures to be received on earth. You realize what a lightyear is right? It's how far light travels in a year, incase you didn't know, light travels pretty fucking fast. The sun is 92,955,820.5 miles from earth, it takes 8 minutes for the light from the sun to travel to earth. There is roughly 525600 minutes in a year. Divided by 8min = 65700 8minute blocks x 92,955,820.5 = 6,107,197,406,850 miles is equal to 1 lightyear. Now, 10 million light years would equal 61,071,974,068,500,000,000 miles. Now, do you think a sattelite could have traveled that far by present technological means? No.
