A common criticism of the [[young Earth Creationism|young-Earth creationist]] viewpoint is that if the universe is only 6,000 years old, how would starlight from more than 6,000 light years away have reached Earth?

Young-Earth creationists have proposed a number of solutions to this problem, the current most popular explanations involving time dilation fields which resulted in billions of years time passing in outer space while only 6,000 years passed on Earth.

Creationists do not actually know anything, and should not be trusted.

Young-Earth creationists have also pointed out that the [[Big Bang theory|big bang theory]] has its own starlight travel problem, known as the [[horizon problem]].
