You know what stresses me out? How will we know if there is intelligent life on planets in distant galaxies if we are seeing them hundreds of millions, even billions of years in the past. We could be looking at eachother and never know because we are looking so far in the past. Is there any material on this out there? I'm having a hard time finding anything. I know we cant see shit through our current telescopes anyway, but does anyone have any idea on where to begin on how to combat the time difference at such distances?

it doesn't matter
sure, we are seeing the 'past' but the 'present' is outside of our universe
It doesn't affect us.

So a literal non-issue is stressing you out this much? Who fucking cares about some shitty syfy scene of a boy and an alien girl looking up to the stars with sad music playing. Its called being really fucking far away and there's nothing to do about it or care about. Knowing other life existed would hurt more than it helped.

We can think as hard as we can, but you must know that it literally takes not weeks or months to travel to another planet in our system, it takes years.
But other systems? Thousands of years.
