That is also why some people find it hard to believe that life can survive enough to become interstellar travellers etc..

Thankfully, there are no stars in that range that are currently capable of going supernova.

Just use your shutter and aperture depending on the intensity of light. if you really wanted to capture light that left today, you just have to wait (or have a self timer) 80 million years that’s all.

Do you think anyone could do the math you would have to set your camera too to capture light travailing from 80 million miles away? (lol)
