You're welcome. The thing that still astonishes me is that there is a lag
of at least 100 milliseconds between light reaching our eyes and our
consciously experiencing it. We all "see" the world as it existed one tenth
of a second ago.

I agree: that tenth of a second time delay is interesting and something to keep you thinking.
I had a similar feeling when I first learned that the Big Bang did not create all the atoms in the universe. Rather, the chemistry set petered out by the time you got to boron. Therefore, all the carbon and heavier elements in existence now were forged inside of primordial stars that themselves exploded and so seeded gas clouds of mainly hydrogen and helium that later collapsed into new stars and their planets. Much of that pile of thinking atoms that you call yourself was at one time deep inside one or more ancient stars.
Yes, we literally are stardust.
