Creation Moment 4/18/2023 - It Took A Big God to Create This

I am Alpha and Omega
the beginning and the end, 
the first and the last.
Revelation 22:13
 
"It has long been common to read of its estimated diameter as about
100,000 light-years (ly)—lately sometimes up to 160,000 ly. 
100,000 ly is already massive—c. 590 quadrillion miles, or 950 followed by fifteen zeroes.
It means that if one could travel at the speed of light c (under physical laws, no object can travel faster than this), it would take 100,000 years to go from one side to the other.
The new study estimates the size of the Galaxy’s disc as being double this—200,000 ly across. And yet this is less than a pinprick in the vast expanse of the universe as a whole.
A common skeptical objection concerns how light could have reached us from distant galaxies in under 6,000 years. It’s important to remember that a light-year measures distance, not time.
And the same scientific principles that dictate c as the universe’s speed limit—Einsteinian relativity—also alert us to the experimentally-proven reality of time dilation when velocity and/or gravitational strength changes.
This raises interesting possibilities of how there was ample ‘time’ for the most distant light to reach Earth in a short time without any logical contradictions.
