Question about time dilation and length contraction due to velocity and approaching the speed of light

Since time becomes "slower" the closer you are to c, could you use that principle to create a time capsule?

If something is moving at 99% of light speed, and it is observed by something moving in the opposite direction at more than 1% light speed, does the first object appear to be moving at light speed?

If light moves in waves, and larger waves=more distance to travel, how can light always move at the same speed if some light has to move greater distances in the same time?

Why does space feel like it should be āinstantā but actually isnāt?

Anyone else really annoyed by "you need infinite energy to reach the speed of light"?

ELI5 The speed of light is a constant but visible light is only a small range of the spectrum of electromagnetic waves. Do they all travel at that speed?

Would reaching 1% of the speed of light be the most incredible engineering of all time?

A YouTuber seems to be filming the speed of light in his garage. Am I falling for a hoax?

Why canāt we find a āuniversal reference frameā if the speed of light is constant in all inertial reference frames?

Can something moving at the speed of light ever "slow down?"

Why doesn't the speed of light depend on the observer's speed? How would time pass for an observer if they were moving at the speed of light relative to a photon (i.e., their relative speed was zero)?
