This is a different sense of 'old' as in "What is its age?" That's a vague question unless there's no change. e.g. Ship of Theseus or stepping in the same river

This is a different sense of 'old' as in "What is its age?" That's a vague question unless there's no change. e.g. Ship of Theseus or stepping in the same river twice. The image (information) of Methuselah we see is 190 years old. Saying farthest vs oldest disambiguates. Unrelated observation: everything travels through spacetime at the speed of light. It's not a speed limit, it's the only speed. If you're not travelling through space then you're travelling through a purely time-line at c. Really makes one wonder how much time we casually waste.
