We have been given the prompt, ""If it were possible to travel at the speed of light, you could be in all places at all times.” Using your understanding of physics, discuss this statement." I know that from the view of an observer, as an object moves closer and closer to the speed of light, time slows down and lengths contract and so on, I'm just having a hard time wrapping my head around how they appear everywhere at all times. Is it because for an object to move closer and closer to the speed of light it's mass increases exponentially? Or since it is not affected by one axis/plane(time) it expands on the other axis/plane(space)? Sorry if that doesn't make sense or I am way off base, just trying to find whatever puzzle piece helps me understand the topic better. Thanks!
