From my understanding objects moving close to the speed of light experience a time distortion in that time moves slower and slower as they get closer to the speed of light. If that is the case shouldn't photons be affected by this as well and cause us to wrongly calculate the age of the universe and distance between stars as we don't take into consideration time distortion?
