"Hey, Google. Take a photo of that thingy way over there in the distance."

Technically yes. That's what we are trying with jwst. Not the end of space but first galaxies and stars. Made of pure hydrogen. Right after dark ages.

I'm not knowledgeable enough on this subject to have an informed opinion. But couldn't quantum entanglement allow one to technically transmit information instantly?

I say technically since you'd need to physically transport one part of the pair. So you couldn't break causality with it.

Ye thats it. Was just crazy to think of this possibility where you can get pics of dinosaurs. In more thought, it just seems like common sense. Whatever stars you see are probably dead.

I think a better a way to frame this to avoid getting hung up on the quantum mechanic thing is asking if a theoretical astronomer on a distant planet viewed the earth and could see its surface, what would they see. (Ignoring the kind of telescope you would need to even do that but this is theoretical fun so whatever!) If they were 100 light years away, would they be looking at earth 100 years ago.

I think your question is more about, that than anything else? Could be wrong.

Hmm. So in future ,if we somehow make this all possible, we could technically get photos of dinosaurs too.

Or in the far ahead future with zillion x zoom camera, we can get into a wormhole far away from earth, take a pic of earth and see how pyramids were made. Haha crazy stuff.

Even without a telescope. Light always takes time to travel. So when you look at your hand and go "Woah"... That hand you see is in the past.

I read an article long back, regarding quantum entanglement, where scientists have used it to transfer data instantly and hypothesized it can be developed to transfer more data between edges of space instantly. I am no scientist, this is just what I read online which led me to this thought.

Exactly, so technically we can see the end and beginning of space with the right equipment?

No not at all. Most don't think about this. Even diving 10m in the water is 2x more pressure than this. Someone going to the bottom of the ocean is way harder for the vehicle to withstand.

I am not an expert, this is just my opinion. I agree, I think it's a lack of understanding of the interstellar medium. Currently, we have observed portions of deep state can vary in density between 0.0001 ions per cubic centimeter to a million ions per cubic centimeter, but this would be very hard to measure. If the average is on the higher end of the range, or higher than expected, we could vastly miscalculate the expected weight of normal matter given the sheer size of "empty" space. Furthermore abundance of heavy elements in the solar system point to a supernova event in our vicinity in the past which may have locally emptied/blasted away the particles around us, what if real space is less of a vacuum than we think and there is the missing mass.

Whatever you see through a telescope it’s in the past. You can only look into the past.

You are looking at the past when you see sky. Always. Anyone on proxima Centauri will see earth as if was 4.5 light years ago. Betelgeuse might have already exploded. We are Andromeda as it was 4.5 millions year ago. Today Someone far away can see earth as dinosaurs are roaming. Time is relative.

No that’s why they spend 10billion on pencils!!🤣🤣🤣🇬🇧

Since you are inventing your own laws of physics (It transmits everything instantly through some quantum concept), you can do whatever you want.

There are two recent papers (from the same authors I believe) trying to do this. There's quite a bit of skepticism though, as they appear to have cherry picked data to fit. But it is something astrophysics is trying to figure out. They don't like it either.

It’s more expensive per pound than the B-2 spirit, an aircraft that literally costs more than its weight in gold.

Without context, I would assume this to be the making of the music video “Dare” by The Gorillaz.
