@MythicSolider989 man Im not saying that bible is 100% accurate because Im Muslim and i believe in Quran. Bible was the previous words of God and now you can see its corrupted by humans so in simple words the latest version is Quran and its 100% accurate. Im nowadays looking at scientific things in Quran and trust me im amazed. Anyways in my previous comment i was just giving a logical explanation.
@Myevilstyle I'm going to take a guess and say that you are trolling, but just in case your not, Doesn't the bible say that the stars were created after the earth?
dumb ass earth was created 6000 years ago not that star which is 16.5 billion light years away its light may have been reached earth long before its existence.... I dont have much knowledge of these history things but come on that was simple.
@ironman197268 Most stars don't become black holes when they die, they aren't massive enough. You seem to think that if black holes are out there, then they are scattering light from all different places all over the place. No. They simply "trap" light that gets to close to them and appear black to us. Besides, they are far to small and far between in the night sky for us to visibly detect with the naked eye at all. The further out you look, the further back in time you are looking.
@georgetcr If new stars were giving off light, there would be no black holes in space to affect the light. You know, when a star dies it becomes a black hole? So... Brand new stars and black hole mixtures, there's no telling where that light would have ended up.
@ironman197268 So, from an outside observer (us), the light cannot escape a black hole because it is traveling in the space that is distorted around the B.H, basically it just travels around it in a circle, as that is what the space is doing, and it appears black to us because no light can escape to reach our eyes. The light still travels the same speed in that space.
@ironman197268 However, the speed of light in a vacuum is a constant and cannot be INCREASED from that speed. Last I checked, space was a vacuum. Besides, if you are arguing that light can somehow slow in space, that would make the age of the universe OLDER, as the light from distant stars would take longer to reach us, not younger. #2 Black holes: Around B.H's, the gravity is so great, that the space itself is extremely distorted. Light travels through the space it is in.
This is dumb, how can the furthest star be 16.5 billion light years away when the universe is 13.7 billion years old? Do you mean million?

@ironman197268 Yeah, I get diarhea of the keyboard sometimes. Sorry. Just trying to help clear up some common astronomical misconceptions.

@georgetcr OK, you said "the speed of light is a constant and it can't be slowed down or stopped"... and now you're leaving all these comments!!
