However, there can be two events that occur so far apart that neither could have caused the other, such as a rock falling on Earth and a rock simultaneously falling on a planet 100 light-years away. In that case then different observers may see one or the other event occurring before the other and there are no problems with causality because there can be no causal connection between the events. | |
