listen to her, she knows exactly what she's talking about,

"no, it's not that this light is moving slower than our light, it's that this light is really far away, so it takes a long time for us to see it, but it's the same light, you would see this light from anywhere, and it is the first light, because before it, for the first 400,000 years, light wasn't travelling in a straight line, it was kind of jumping around and such, we know this because we are scientists, and we can't see light unless it is travelling in a straight line!"
