How far back is "current"?

If you type the word "now" then "current" is already in the past. To talk about something that is "current" there has to be some accepted window of time.

Now, with that in mind. You open up the window to a period of time which may be grand on our scale, but a blip on the scale of the universe.

You make various observations with that "current" universe, and you see that it corresponds to observations of the universe in the past.

Why is that non-scientific?
