Space in general. Looking at the stars and know that I'm seeing them as they were thousands of years ago and not like they are at this very moment. Some of the stars you look at at night might not even be there anymore. It's just the light from them is still traveling across space.

That blows my mind every time I think about it. It's crazy.

What is amazing is they say if humans could manage to travel at the speed of light...they say like if you're gone a month on your watch time when you get back to Earth everyone you know would be already dead. Or something like that I can't remember the details
