Is 'c' the speed limit because it's the fastest we can possibly travel into the Universe that the procedurally generated simulation can handle????

The Universe exists only within our conscious minds that observe it. We interact with our Universe not on a plane of reality, but through the lens of sentient minds that have evolved to see it in the human way, in ways that were necessary for survival and proliferation. With enough time, the self-aware, conscious, imaginative human brain was born.

To imagine something is to make it real; since our minds contain the Universe, our human-conscious version of the Universe, anything created in the mind is therefore as real as any other experience. When enough minds form a collective imagination, centered on one idea, the focus of thought slowly manifests itself into our widespread Universe.

In total anonymity, ideas can be shared and entertained without intrusion from social pressure. Without us realizing it, ideas that seem impossible at first are rationalized through the sheer volume of collective brainpower that consider them until they are forced past the barrier of impossibility into our observed Universe.

Consciousness is the emergence of a system, within a deterministic Universe, that can escape the inevitability of its parent-system.

Thanks, I'll show myself out now.

Say you're in a spaceship (which can travel at any speed) equipped with an incredibly advanced telescope (which can detect the detail of a car-sized object on the ground), 2000 light years from Earth. Assuming the spaceship can travel in congruence with the field of view of the telescope remaining constant, what would an observer see through the telescope if it were fixed at New York City, and travelling towards the Earth at one light-year per minute? Would they witness time in fast forward?
