well... if it takes the light 8,000 years to travel to us then what we see now is 8,000 years ago, right? So if you kept focus on the star everyday and suddenly saw it explode... that was 8,000 years ago and you could start the countdown until it arrived, 8000 years later. If it was even headed this way...
anyone ever read "Cosmos" by Carl Sagan? = win.
