How did Prophet Muhammad reach Jerusalem, ascend the heaven, and return on the same night?

Human technology has succeeded in transmitting people's voices and images all around the world at the same moment, is it not possible for the Creator of mankind to make His Prophet ascend the heavens with his body and soul more than 1400 years ago? The Prophet's ascension on the back of an animal called "Al-Burāq", which was a white and tall animal, larger than a donkey and smaller than a mule. It would place its hoof at a distance which was the furthest point within its sight reach. It had a bridle and a saddle and the prophets (peace be upon them) used to ride it. [Narrated by Al-Bukhāri and Muslim]
