In our lifetime, is it possible to see a supernova? If the light takes so long to get here, than we'd have to wait millions - billions of years to see a supernova, and even by then, wouldn't it have already happened billions of years ago, making what we're seeing like time travel, in a way?

We're just mere humans. It sounds insulting, but that's it, isn't it?

What if what we see, interpret, analyze, and conclude is all illusion, regardless of the mathematical accuracy that we perceive as being accurate.

The size of the cosmo is just too much...

The difference between a spider and a human is half big. The human in comparison to a state is huge. The state in comparison to the earth is huge. The earth in comparison to jupiter. Jupiter to the Solar System. The Solar System to the Milky Way. The Milky Way to the Local Group. The Local Group to the Virgo Supercluster. The Virgo Supercluster to the Cosmos itself and at least 9 other superclusters.

I can't comprehend it, and because I can't, just leads me to believe that it'll never be disovered, or it's just illusion.

What do you think?

If the telescope was directed at earth and an alien was looking through it does that mean they would be watching the earth 500 years ago? as in if the telescope was so good that it could actually see things happening on the ground and people walking around would they see knights in shining armour and castles and horses etc?

(So I've read from a bunch of online sources, some one correct me if that isn't true.)

I'm curious about what other odd/unusual behaviors occur in space environments, anybody have links?

I've had this idea for a while. Put a large (perhaps 1 square mile or bigger) mirror on the moon and focus telescopes on it so you could see the earth from the moon, from earth. I think its a cool, thought highly unpractical, idea.

1st. did we discover the internet, or create the internet?
2nd. if we discovered the internet, is it possible, no probable, that aliens too have the internet?
3rd. if the internet is the same everywhere in the universe, and humans and aliens both access it, is it possible for them to interact with one another through it?

I'm not interested in a toy telescope, but I'd like to keep the price below $500. I'm so confused by the options! I want to actually be able to see stuff, but I'm not getting another degree in optics in order to work the telescope. Any suggestions?
