Recently had a zoom chat with my cousin in US (I am in India). Still blown away by the fact that millions of bits of video and sound data can travel across half the planet in seconds. How is it possible?
Data travels at the speed of light, minus time for processing and routing. At the speed of light it takes .13 seconds to go all the way around the world (a full circle) and in your example it didn’t have to go that far.
