If we created a large mirror, blasted it off FAR into space, then beamed information at it (perhaps via light pulses?) would the data be retrievable in the future? Alternatively, could we reflect the data off a planet in case we could not create a mirror large enough? This works the same way that looking at stars at a distance is 'seeing them millions of years in the past.'
Could we get a digital satellite's video feed, convert it to light pulses, beam it at the mirror, have it beam back to us and then ten, hundreds, or thousands of years into the future 'watch' what was happening in the relative past?
