Eli5 how does a photon not experience time when zooming toward point b? Wouldn’t other photons from point b passing it appear as time happening very quickly?

When you go really fast you start to go faster by experiencing less time.

And to go at the speed limit of the universe you don’t experience time at all, which is only possible for things without mass like light.

To the photon its created and absorbed in a instant.
