  • @4jonah Yep that is exactly right and how it works, anything we see 9 billion light years away happened 9 billion years ago. This is what allows astronomers and cosmologists to literally see the history of the universe by looking far enough away.

  • @Nyonben After you saying that you are hesitant about replies to your comments I had to reply lol 

  • 32:17. Just WHHHAT do you think you're doing?

  • Conclusion, is better do be eaten by a black hole than a lion :)

  • @4jonah

    Pardon me. I didnt mean miles. Durr. I meant light years

  • Wait wait wait. If a GBG was 9Billion miles away, you couldn't have seen it in the sky when it happened, because it would have taken 9B years to get here, no?

  • Two people can't escape from a black hole.

  • Worst camera man ever.

  • @CirianAlani It's a shame. A mute button in real life would eliminate a lot of my problems :)
