-We can see galaxies from Earth that are billions of
What is the distant light years away
starlight problem? - Light should have taken billions of years to reach
earth
What is a light year? Measure of distance, not time
What is "c"? Speed of light (constant)
Value of C 186,000 miles/second
How far can light travel in 6 trillion miles
1 light year?
Evolution explanation for Universe is old
how light can be seen
from distant galaxies
Creationist explanation for -Scriptural explanation
how light can be seen -God stretched out the heavens
