What If You Could Travel at the Speed of Light

What if you were able to travel at the speed of light? Think of this: you'd travel 186,000 miles in just one second. In other words, it would take you just a second to go around Earth seven and a half times! The speed at which light travels in a perfect vacuum is 671 million miles per hour!

It takes sunlight on average 8 minutes and 17 seconds to travel all the way from the Sun to Earth - just enough time to drink a cup of coffee in the morning! Why don't we, humans, explore space at the speed of light? In short, the laws of physics make it impossible. Let's ignore this insignificant detail for now and imagine we CAN move at the speed of light!

TIMESTAMPS:
The Moon 1:03
Venus 1:36
Mars 2:18
Mercury 3:02
Sun 3:29
Jupiter 4:01
Saturn 4:41
Uranus 5:13
The outskirts of the Solar System 5:45
Proxima Centauri 6:15
The center of Milky Way Galaxy 6:40
The Andromeda Galaxy 7:23

Can’t believe light travels 8 minutes just to melt my Kit Kat bar and my ice cream

2020: Nearly impossible to travel at the speed of light.
2920 Ferrari: This car travels x10 000 faster than the speed of light.

Interestingly, you would reach all of these locations instantaneously traveling at the speed of light. Time literally stops at the speed of light. These time periods he's describing are for the people on Earth, but the actual traveler would reach anywhere in the observable universe instantly.

Oh man I love when he says at the end “make up a number that’s still too small. Lol

Nobody
Bright side: you want to travel to Andromeda galaxy with car

If the milky way is so vast, we cannot imagine how big the universe is. Mind boggling! 🤔

[TheGreatPartt]

Me: *I want to travel to Andromeda Galaxy 🌌*

Also Me: *Don’t Even Think About it.*

If you could travel at the speed of light, which is by the way physically impossible, you would reach your destination instantly (from your perspective), because at that speed you don't experience neither time nor distance...

"Make up a number, that's still too small"

How about 900 Googolplex years 🙃 that too small?

[Lambirdy]

I hope one day the human race masters interstellar travel.

[anyapeanutlover]

"Visits all planets"
Neptune: :(
Pluto: It's okay, I'm not even a planet as well.

If you could travel at the speed of light,
Just imagine the acceleration you would experience.
Crushes your skull

The thumbnail gave me an anxiety how much are species is grown.. how advanced we are now.. how beautiful are past is.. and how dangerous the future is..
