You were just innovative with chirality is all

Well, in a manner of speaking, they might appear frozen in time- we can only see light at that distance, but let’s say we could see our friend Harry.

Since the light from Harry has to cross an increasingly large distance to reach us, he will appear to move slower and slower. It’s taking longer for light to reach us, hence longer for us to see change. Instead he just gets redder and redder, and kind of fades out.

This applies for space time dilation in other areas, ie, Black holes. If you watched Harry head into a black hole, you’d never see him suck in. Since gravitational dilation is rapidly increasing, Harry will slow to a freeze and red shift out. He is already gone but his image/light is taking longer and longer to reach you, until it can’t reach you at all.

Edit; I’ll add that due to the sheer magnitude of time on this scale, everything we observe seems pretty much “frozen in time”. It just takes too long anything big enough to observe to happen , we only get a snap shot. We get lucky and find this or that happening to a distant Galaxy, but we probably won’t be around long enough to see any process play out.

You might not mean time dilation- since space is expanding it will not change the speed of objects. Like stretching a balloon, two dots will grow apart, but that doesn’t mean they are traveling relative to each other.

Light doesn’t experience time. But what does the expansion mean for observing distant galaxies? I do know that there are some galaxies that we will never be able to see. The expansion of space will happen faster than their light can traverse that distance.

Other galaxies will red shift until they aren’t detectable any more- light may still be reaching us but that frequency of the light as it travels towards us will slow. This is sort of like being in a wave pool and walking backwards. The time between waves grows greater the further away you get from the source.

When we calculate the age of galaxies, we have to consider expansion, and the degree of red shift helps us figure it out. Light that has been traveling since right after the Big Bang may have only been traveling for 13 billion years… But it will have travelled many many more light years in that time.

I can think about this forever and never get anywhere- What makes emotions real? If we put receptors on an AI and programed damage=pain pain = insufferable, how would it actually differ from what our brains do? Does our pain exist as something tangible, or does pain not exist at all, aside from our brains telling us that nociceptors mean bad time?

We know an ant doesn’t feel the same pain as us (if any, pain is pretty much an emotion) but a dog is some where in between- is there a line when pain becomes real, tangible, significant?

There’s more thorough explanations here already, but quite simply- one bullet would not perceive the other hitting its wall at the same time as itself. Remember that to see the bullet hit the wall, the light from the event has to travel to your eyes. You are equidistant. If the bullet had eyes, that light has to travel that extra distance- wall to wall. It would hit the wall, and slightly later would see it’s companion hit it’s wall.

A more mind bending “paradox” is the ladder paradox in which a ladder contracts to fit in a barn too small for it. I can’t explain it better than wiki here.

David is discussed in the New Testament too. The Star/Seal of Solomon wasn’t uniquely Jewish and wasn’t associated until a few hundred years ago…

There’s no fuck up here, if these Christians didn’t want to learn anything.

So, I take it that evening you prepared a bindle, and in the dead of night hiked to the train tracks, and you’re a train hopper now, only friend is the endless rails, no, not that tampon-tent-girl at all…

UNACCEPTABLLLLE!!

Okay, but could we describe the Earth as “cake-like” cause then I’m good with relating celestial bodies to desserts

That’s some deep MK&A lore you got going there

You mean that science documentary, Evolution? It’s quite simple, as Arsenic is poison to Carbon based life forms, it follows that Selenium, the next element over, would be poison to Nitrogen based life forms.
