Hi all, I didn’t know how to formulate the question in a non stupid way so I’ll explain.

If the light we see from stars in the sky are actually “the past” as they’ve left their source light years ago, from another point in the universe another planet sees our Sun’s light the same way, correct?

If that’s the case, if there was an “universal year” or an “Universe’s current year”, would all the stars and planets be living in the same year?

Maybe I am 5, I feel 5 right now.

Thanks :)
