The speed of light is approximately 186,000 miles per second, and what is "seen" now ... is something that happened at some earlier time.

Given that something can move faster than the speed of light ... might be used to look back in time. What we see NOW is always something that happened in the past

Folks, we're looking at technology that might provide humans with time travel observations, the ability to see things that happened in the past.

And, perhaps, the future?

the ability to see things that happened in the past.

Revise that to read ... The ability to see things faster, but never before they happen.

If we can look back on the past, that is going to have some very significant and serious social consequences.
