It would seem so. I recently read that photons cannot decay; in relativity theory their clocks are stopped from the point of view of every frame of reference.

One theory I like since their "clocks are stopped" zero time running in their reference frame then length contraction should be infinite. No time or distance in a photon's reference frame (from the photon's point of view). Solves the "spooky action at a distance problem" between two entangled photons because there is no distance between them in their reference frame.

Waiting for the better educated to throw rocks at me ;^)

Absolutely true. Bizarre but true. To a photon, it's almost as if the universe is two dimensional. Whichever direction it travels and whatever object exists in that direction, to the photon, that thing is already at hand. There is zero distance between it and the photon, as you say. To the photon, everything in the universe which lies in that direction appears to exist in a plane, right in front of its nose. Truly bizarre stuff.

It's what the universe would look like to us if we could approach the speed of light arbitrarily close. You could go anywhere in the universe in the blink of an eye, from your point of view. But to an outside observer stuck on Pluto, say, (the earth probably won't be here), it'll take you tens of billions of years.

(No, everybody, I'm not a physicist. So if I've got it wrong, pipe in and straighten me out! I'd appreciate it.)
