Started to have random weird thoughts and wrote them down, anyone care to comment? be nice i'm well new!

 LIGHT--- THAT TWO DIMENSIONAL 3D ARTIST and or LIFE FORM

Light travels at 670,616,629.384 miles per hour,. so in theory, if we build a wall in a circle with a radius of that distance or indeed scaled down by a factor of 60 to bring this distance down to distance travelled in one minute and then 60 again to give us 19615.7304 this would equate to miles per second. Then, in theory if we could run around this wall in one second we would be travelling at the speed of light , correct? but if we then reduce the wall by a factor of 1000 it leave us with a circumference of 19.6157, meaning we would then have to travel the wall at a speed of 1000 revolutions per second to balance the equation.. Or indeed 60000 revs a minute to travel at the same speed on the wall , the speed of light… If we then / by pye (this circumference)_ we get a radius for this circular wall of 6.2341miles, a bit easier to visualise. If at dead centre we have a laser shining vertically on to a prism which reflects the beam to the wall and the prism is then spun at 60,000 revs a minute , the light dot on the wall will then race around the wall at the speed of light, correct? my question is what happens to the light dot if the speed is increased by a small amount,,,, a time warp? Also given that at different points along the entire length of the beam the light will have a shorter distance to travel than the first emitted light what will happen to these light photons which are travelling sideways slower than the photons at the end of the beam during one un-calculable small amount of time or indeed a frozen instance ..using the rule that light travels away from everything even objects travelling in the same direction as it, at the speed of light, there is no minus speed factor .for example a car travelling at 100 miles per hour and has headlamps on is not emitting light at light speed minus 100 mph.. Stephen Hawking’s under studies have informed me that light is not a complete beam but rather a series of photon fired off rather like machine gun bullets and if we could slow this down we would see a spray pattern on the wall proving this.. Using the theory that light always travels away from things at the speed of light, this means that two photons would never collide until reflected back onto each other .This then brings me to the question if a beam is not a beam but indeed a series of photons fired of which do not collide, then because of the “no touching” rule there would indeed be spaces between these photons and if there where spaces, what would be in them if there was no light? Complete darkness? A photon only illuminates that little spot in the universe that it exists in for the duration of its life, it does not shine forwards , it’s the mere travelling of this photon that gives illusion of shining forwards away from itself. If we where to fire of one photon and slow it down we would see no illumination in front or behind it but a little speck of glowing whiteness moving forwards and away from its source. If time is measured by movement, the speed of a travelling photon and we can then interfere with this movement or indeed make it behave in a way not relevant to its physics , can we then manipulate time itself? And what is the life time expectancy of a single charged photon ?or does it survive forever? I do know that torch that is lit up in a complete dark room will light the area it is shined onto, but once its turned off it does not leave little, lit photons travelling forwards forever and light cannot travel threw solid matter so where do they go? But by the same token we can see light given off by distant stars and may have started their journey many thousands of years before. Is it a case of light will always travel until it is stopped by a none reflective substance as I know it will keep travelling after it has collided with a mirror , albeit a different direction.. Therefore in theory if a light was shone inside a mirror ball and then was turned off would the light stay in there for ever trapped as there is nothing to absorb it?. answers on the back of a postage stamp please or just pin them up here on my profile

Photons make things visible, but cannot be seen themselves. They are neither here nor there, although they make detectors go 'click' here or there, and they cannot be thought of in any intuitive way. 'Touching' makes no sense for photons either, since they easily go through each other, unless at so high an energy that non-linear effects of quantum electrodynamics appear, and then they would start scattering off each other.

The expression 'lit photons' makes no sense.

Light photons coming from same source will never ever touch. so if not touching they they have no light in these places as light is only made up of photons blasted off like bullets from a machine gun so no light> then all dark.. Einstein  once asked what if we could chase a beam of light, first instance light is not a beam but divided photons as learned in replies from the late great S. Hawking.    but what would we see? we would See nothing if we could slow the light to still light or we could travel at light speed,, light is only translated as visual by our brains, and only when that light is absorbed into our eyes by our eyes so if it was to be slowed to a stop it would not be seen as light as it would not reach your eye and if we where to speed up also it would never get into our eye so we wouldn't see it,, light photons only travel forwards from the source. no light is emitted back to the source so you could never see it from the rear. if you could follow a photos

Photons are nothing like bullets.

Of course not. The light dot on the wall cannot be used to transfer information from one place of the wall to another.

Photons are not charged.

Photons have infinite lifetime, unless absorbed.

'In theory', yes. But because there are no perfect mirrors, this will never be possible.
