I was wondering, perhaps in maybe 2,000 years or so we harness the ability 
to travel through wormholes of some sort (if they exist). Could we use a 
wormhole to travel 65 million light-years away from earth and then use 
gigantic telescopes to peer back on earth and witness the death of the 
dinosaurs? or see what they actually looked like?
