Here is a mind blower:

Assume, if you travel at the speed of light, that, from your perspective, you arrive at your destination at exactly the moment you left your starting point (ignoring any accelleration or deceleration times).

This means that whether you are travelling a thousand miles or a million light years, you would be in both places at the same time.

Now imagine that you can travel in huge circles, arcs or figure 8’s, etc. It means you would be everywhere in the universe at once.

It means you would be everywhere in the universe at once.

not any where at all?

“It means you would be everywhere in the universe at once.”

Timothy Leary accomplished that.
