If we could place James webb telescope 100,000 light years away from earth and observe earth,can we see our planet as it was 100,000 years ago ?

The telescope would take millions of years to travel 100K light years.

If you could use magic to place it there now, images would take 100,000 years to transmit back to Earth.

But

If we invented a worm hole and could send the telescope and the images through it instantly..

You wouldn't see much of Earth from that distance. You'd mostly be seeing the Sun from 100,000 years ago.

Technically yes but that's a big if.

It would mean humanity has mastered FTL Comms and Travel. That means that we've discovered a way to generate the energy to accelerate particles past light speed. It would mean we're able to manipulate space/time as well.

Light speed is the universe's speed limit. If we broke it, it'd be like being able to manipulate gravity.

What a fukking stupid ass thread.

You would literally have to send the equipment out at a significant sustained shed greater than light speed to get ahead of the light coming from earth........... shyt I thought light died was the fastest known site of travel......... it's my education outdated brehs? If there a new top speed? shyt.......speed of thought???

Ooooooooh, you are high high high breh.........what strain?
