I still can't wrap my head around it sometimes. Like, a sound travels. We see this when you see an explosion from far off then later hear the boom. Light works the same way, but obviously much faster. But I still can't understand it sometimes. My mind wants to think that we should be able to see light as it is, as it is often constant and not really "traveling" like a sound does. But that's not the case at all. But these stars we're seeing in these photos ... that's not now ... that's hundreds of thousands of years ago from what I understand. It's crazy.
