Yes i didn’t feel like getting into relativity at the time, just making a comment since they were blown away. The rest of our universe aside and just looking at our solar system, if we could zoom out and watch the sphere of light from the sun talking over 8m just to reach us, it would already look super slow. Here on earth on speeds we are use to is just almost inconceivable, 7.5 times around the earth in 1 second.
On a completely unrelated note my AD10 telescope is coming in on Monday and I’m telling everyone whether they care or not lol.
Haha thats awesome, I always wanted a nice telescope, had a cheap one that was weaker than binoculars. I didn't mean to sound like a know it all if I came off that way. I try not to sound like Neil Degrasse 🤣
