Rendered Frame Theory: Interactive Cosmology Lab

What you're looking at

Speed of Sight (SoS) compares:

  • Physical delay — how long light actually takes to reach you
  • Perceptual delay — your brain’s render cycle (milliseconds)

Even if light left a galaxy millions of years ago, your perceptual update time stays tiny.
You never “see the past” — you see a rendered present.
