only pretty sure, not 100%, but I believe that at the speed of light time passes as well as anywhere else. The diffculty about all this is that it's relative (funny how the most popular phrase of physics isn't as trivial as it seems). Relative means that, for you time passes always the same rate independently of the speed you are (i.e you will always feel a second as a second), but your time might be slower or quicker THAN for somebody in an other referencial system; that's why time is relative.Time is only slow or quick in relation to another time

assuming that the photon is conscious, then the photon will feel it is taking a long time to get to places? but that we see it moving instantaneously? or is it the other way around?

Why shouldn't it be possible that's arbitrary? It fits very well in my worldview. If you think it's not arbitrary, it fits very well your worldview and for you your interpretation is the correct one. Nothing to be confused about, only that if you got the latter worldview it must be hard to accept the former, while the other way around it works very well. I guess that's why you are confused and I'm not.

what is the purpose of interpreting? is it to lend support to our ideology? like for example, a national leader wants to wage war, then he will interpret survival of the fittest as a justification that fighting and destroying other race/nation is necessary for the . And his interpretation cannot be wrong as long as the scientific data is right?
maybe i should ask it this way: is science neutral?
or: natural science is neutral and social science is subjective?
