No. If you look far enough away, you will see OTHER objects in the past. For example, if a galaxy is ten million light-years away, the light of this galaxy took 10 million years to reach us, so we see this galaxy 10 million years ago. Earth's light, from millions of years ago, doesn't come back to us, since (roughly speaking) light travels in a straight line, and moves at the speed of light (300,000 km/sec).

If you had a telescope on a planet 3000 light years away and zoomed in on earth what would you see?

If you had a telescope on a planet 3000 light years away and zoomed in on Earth, you would see the Earth as it was 3000 years ago. Due to the time it takes for light to travel, you would not be seeing Earth in real-time, but rather how it appeared 3000 years in the past.

What evidence do you have that the moon is moving away from earth?

One piece of evidence that the moon is moving away from Earth is that laser reflectors left on the moon by astronauts have shown that the moon is drifting 3.8 centimeters away from Earth each year. This phenomenon is known as lunar recession, caused by tidal interactions between Earth and the moon.


As we can see planets galaxies light years in the past with telescopes couldn't we send spacecraft far enough into space to record to see Earth light years in the past to settle creation argument?

Sending spacecraft far enough into space to see Earth in the past would be technically challenging due to the vast distances involved and limitations of our current technology. Additionally, the time delay in receiving images from such a distant location would make real-time observation of Earth's past impossible. Instead, scientists rely on methods such as studying light from distant objects and cosmic background radiation to understand the history and evolution of the universe, including Earth.

Is it possible to look into the past?

yes it is, we are all energy(light). whwen we observe things that are light years away, we are actually looking at the image displayed years ago. so if we figuere a way to reverse and see earth from light years away, we would be able to see the earth at that same time in the past.
