here's a new question:
if i were to travel to a star 15 years away, in the blink of an eye. and i looked through a telescope that magnified my view of earth... would i not be looking at earth as it were 15 years ago? i would be able to see myself 15 years ago. this could be a form of time travel in a way, that you could be a spectator on events in the past. you couldn't interfere with them of course because all you are really experiencing, is the light as it reaches that star you are on.
those stars you see in the sky? they could have blown up, but you wouldn't know it until the light reached your eye. you are viewing the past right there, just by looking up in the sky
that's like asking if you travelled to the stop sign 20 minutes away, in the blink of an eys and i looked through some binoculars that magnified my view of the parking lot... would i not be looking at the parking lot as it were 20 minutes ago. i would be able to see myself 20 minutes ago. ....
i say this not possible and you're up way too early.
