Why is looking through a telescope to observe infant galaxies like looking back in time? (1 point)
because these infant galaxies do not actually exist yet
because it does not take time for light to travel
because it takes time for light to travel
because these infant galaxies have actually already died
The correct answer is: because it takes time for light to travel. When we observe distant objects in space, the light that reaches our telescopes has traveled for a very long time. Hence, we are essentially looking at these objects as they were in the past, allowing us to study the early stages of galaxy formation and evolution.
