That just means that photons don't age as they traverse the Universe...
Teletransport, the ultimate in anti-aging creams!

Yes, there's no notion of time passing "from the vantage point of a photon", it's not possible to define properly...
The fool hath said in his heart, There is a God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.
Psalm 14, KJV revised edition
