Wikipedia definition
2. Light echoA light echo is a phenomenon observed in astronomy. Analogous to an echo of sound, a light echo is produced when a sudden flash or burst of light, such as that observed in novae, is reflected off a source and arrives at the viewer some time after the initial flash. Because of their geometries, light echoes can produce the illusion of superluminal speeds.
