Each time step has it's pattern or set of possible choices, given mc^2 = E = hf. And those informational patterns themselves, the "computation" of the universe, evolves in a dependent sequence? Thus it should not be surprising that the patterns we see from electromagnetic energy emitted long ago/far away may be anomalous with out own localized patterns here on Earth in the present.
In physics, is F=ma somehow analogous to E=mc2
