"Light of Other Days" is a science fiction short story by Bob Shaw. It was originally published in August 1966 in Analog Science Fiction and Fact.[1] The story uses the idea of "slow glass": glass through which light takes years to pass. Bob Shaw used this idea again in later stories.[1]
The story's title is derived from Thomas Moore's poem "Oft, in the Stilly Night", which is quoted within the story.
