The colliding galaxies you are seeing now is 100 millions light years away. It is so far that for Helios 2, the fastest man made object, traveling at 70,220 miles per hour takes 3 millennium to reach there. Voyager 1 and 2 are the most distant man made objects in space traveling at 39,000 miles per hour and have covered around 6.5 billions miles in about 2 decades. Its not even distance traveled by light in 30 minutes.
