Your theory was working really well until you said that.
Sound and light are two TOTALLY different things.
Sound is compression waves in the air. If something happened 45 miles away, someone popped a baloon, you would never hear it because it would lose energy as it travels through the atmosphere.
Sound can't travel through space either, it is a vacuum.
But light is NOT that at all. The nature of light has been debated forever in history, but if you are seriously interested, you should check out:
Wave/Particle Duality
Nature of Light
And if you fire over to your local university, check out any books on time dialation. Great stuff. Who knows if we're right though, as far as man was concerned, we used to be the center of the universe.
