Hello, I was thinking to myself the other day and i was wondering. You know how you hear thunder long after you see the lightening. I was wondering if you can see into the past with NASA Telescopes. How far would one have to go to see into the past. How far up would sattellite telescopes have to go up to unlock some of yesterdays "myths." How far up would a telescope have to go to see what happened yesterday, is it possible to see into the past?

You can definitely see the past with NASA telescopes. However, with our current technology, we most liekely won't be able to for another millenium....If technology progresses fast enough.
The way you can see the past is using the theory of light. Light goes at a speed of 299,792,485 meters per second. Technically speaking, if you go currently are, for example, 5 lightyears (50 trillion kilometers) away from earth, and you peer at the earth using a 50 trillion kilometer lense telescope, you will be able to see the earth 5 years ago.
This means that, since the light from the Sun takes 8 minutes to travel to us, we are looking at the Sun 8 minutes back in time. So, if the Sun spontaneously combusts, we will see it 8 minutes after it happens, and hear it even later.... (and maybe feel it in a century or so).
Say you want to see the age of the dinosaurs, about 65 million years ago. All you need to do is (simply) travel 65 million lightyears away (650 million trillion km) in no time at all (some advanced ride you have). Then after that, you need to land somewhere safe where you are, and with a chimerically advanced telescope, look back at the earth.... And you may see a dinosaur peering at you. The odds are unlikely.... But hey, the future is the future...

Hope this taught you about Greek Mythology,

Speak for yourself lil seventh grader! I read it all and it has actually changed my beleif is weither or not we can see into the past. It's not called being a smartalic it's called being SMART and expressing your belifs to non-belivers with some scientific meaning behid it.

You know if you wright something stupid, no one is going to read it. :)

Have a nice day!
