So, if you're traveling at the speed of light, and you turn on your headlights, would they be any help?

Yes, but you'd have to be going backwards.

There are no other galazies. They all blew up 100 million years ago and we haven't seen it yet. We're just waiting for our turn.

Stew on that for a few minutes. I have a straight razor here, if you want it.
