They say that when we look up to see stars, we’re actually seeing the light from dead stars. So technically, we can’t see what’s out there in the present? What do you think is out there now? is it just new, modern stars or we don’t get to see anything at all? (since by now, everything has expanded billions of miles apart from each other that light is far from anything to reach)

For us to be seeing stars that have been dead for billions of years, the stars would have to be more than a billion light years away. None of the stars you can see without a telescope are even close to that far away. They’re all within a few thousand light years of us.
