    Speed of light and time travel
    I herd that if we travel with the speed of light for 7 years , in earth will have past 500 years. But what if we have a point A were the spaceship will start and a point B were the ship will stop. Both points are visible from earth. In the ship travel with the speed of light from point A to B for 7 seconts does that mean that we will see it like he needed 50 seconts? Sounds paradox
