There are scientific methods to compensate for the onset of black holes and strong gravity forces from large objects in relation to how they affect light.

You can effectively enlarge the image you see on the paper, you can't look into it.

The only way a telescope sees things in the future is by being a couple feet closer to the sky than our eyes are

It's impossible to exceed the speed of light. Stop reading the back of cereal boxes.
