When you look at the moon you see it as it was about 1.3 second ago. Sun - About 8 minutes. Vega, when you look at Vega, you are seeing it as it was more than 25 years ago.

This question restated: what is the difference between instant and infinite when it comes to light, when dealing with physics?

There are ramification in physics, such as relativity. Physics FAQ: What is the experimental basis of special relativity? http://math.ucr.edu/home/baez/physics/Relativity/SR/experiments.html
