If there's a planet 65million light years away, and they had a powerful telescope and could view our earth, would they see dinosaurs walking about right now?
And if they recorded what they saw and played it back on massive Samsung lcd tv and we built a huge telescope to see them clearly as they have, would we also see the dinosaurs walking around our own earth on their tv?
No. Whackjob.

I was trying to get some numbers and facts to go with the problems imagined in my head, and came up with the above as a starter... so yer telescope would have to be as big as the solar system or something equally unlikely. Besides, their TV would be showing scenes from 130 million years ago.
