It's so nice to hear a person who takes an example, an illustration, etc, and unpacks it into the real world. It takes a vivid imagination within the confines of Reason to do so effectively. As my name suggests, I'm a Christian preacher. Your point regarding ACTUAL time travel necessitating the involvement of radical space travel as well brought back some favorite memories! Instances when I tried to convey the radical implications of the following statement written by a man, John the apostle, who claimed to be an eyewitness to the event: "The sea [of Galilee] became rough because a strong wind was blowing. When they had rowed about three or four miles, they saw Jesus walking on the sea and coming near the boat, and they were frightened. But he said to them, "It is I; do not be afraid." Then they were glad to take him into the boat, and immediately the boat was at the land to which they were going." John 6:18-21 Everyone gets caught up in walking on water. Please don't misunderstand. That was still an amazing feat, impossible using any means of their time. But you and I have seen people walk. We've also seen the surface of a lake or ocean. Is it that difficult to juxtapose the two to imagine what that would KIND OF look like? The other feat is far more subtle, quite unassuming as mere words on a page, almost too simple allowing the reader to miss it over and over again. 1. The Sea of Galilee is about 8 miles at its widest, and 13 miles at its longest. The distance between the cities mentioned in the section (Tiberias and Capernaum) is about 6 miles; just over 5 if the starting point was north of Tiberias on the shore by the mountain. 2. The writer and many of the men on the boat were fishermen. Of that very sea. They knew exactly how far they had traveled, and how far they still had to go. Even if they had gone over half the distance, they still would've at least had a mile, if not two, still to go to reach shore. 3. The word translated "immediately" is in almost every instance in the New Testament rendered "immediately." If John had meant to say something like, "The trip then became 'super easy, barely an inconvenience,'" the Greek language can handle it. So if John's account actually occurred, not only did Jesus teleport himself, he teleported the people on the ship, AND the ship! This was done instantaneously rather than creepy tunnel Willy Wonka style. So instantaneously, in fact, the only thing perceptible to John was the change in surroundings, not the boat lurching or anything. For a few minutes, I tried to start calculating the cosmic distance he would've traveled over the given time, meaning he would've also had to compensate for different velocity at their destination. Then I realized the vectors wouldn't have changed at all, and if they did, it would've been infinitesimal, even locally, due to the word "immediately." "But that means He didn't travel through Time!" First off, you're correct. But realize what it does mean! Much like the episode "Stasis" in Tales from the Loop, he either stopped Time allowing the ship to travel in an instant, or he shortened the space between two spots. Or both. He controlled spacetime. Notice his words in John 8:58, after which they try to kill him for claiming to be God: "Jesus said to them, "Truly, truly, I say to you, before Abraham was, I am." I love asking people what that means. Invariably: "Before Abraham was, Jesus was." Nope. You got the tenses, the contexts of Time wrong. Before Abraham existed in the past, Jesus EXISTS in the PRESENT. Moving a boat, or foretelling future events, or healing people from miles away are CRAZY easy for a being that IS everyWHERE and everyWHEN. All at the same time. Sounds like something 4+dimensional entering our meager 3rd dimension as we're propelled by that 4th dimension ourselves. We're in the lazy river of Time. Jesus created the river, and then got it moving. Great video, Joe! Had me brainstorming ALL DAY! 👍
I’m absolutely loving your videos. I’ve been sending several links to my son. He’s only 12, but he’s incredibly eager to learn about higher-level topics, such as relativity. I really appreciate that you cover complex topics without coming across as pretentious or boring, and you have an ability to explain things that pretty much anyone that’s paying attention can understand. You are a gentleman and a scholar, sir. Thank you.
You've definitely raised your son well. Hope he's still fascinated by learning. I hated school and learning stuff I wasn't interested in in general. Never done any homework or revision for exams etc. Luckily for me I could retain what I was taught in class to a decent extent so when it came for final exams I scraped by with B's and C's which I was happy with. It's only been since I turned 23ish that I started to study science for the fun and joy of learning for the sake of it. I wonder sometimes with regret if I actually had this thirst for knowledge during my school years, whether I could have done better, went to university, and been in a different line of work. I'm a network engineer, which is still a good job, but always get those 'what if' moments. Sorry for my life story lol.
January 19, 2022 - Joe, I just watched and enjoyed you talking to me about 2.5 years ago! I’ve watched MOST of your videos and have to keep going to the past to enjoy more of your videos in my future! You are right, time IS hard to understand 😁
You can time travel to the future by moving slowly too. The less i do each day, the more days blur together and woosh, a week went by and i did nothing useful...again...
I got smug poisoning off that apology to the future thing. Dropped in to see if it was going to be a continuing trend and am glad to see this one is a bit more... watchable.
9:20 just remember that your standing, on a planet that's evolving, and revolving at 900 miles an hour. Its orbiting its reckoned 90 miles every second, the sun that is the source of all our power; And the sun, and you, and me, and all the stars that we can see, are moving at a million miiiiles a daaaay, in an outer spiral arm, at 40 thousand miles an hour, of the galaxy we call the milky way!
I realized that one myself on hearing about a guy who claims he traveled back in time decades, as part of some military project. After just a few seconds wondering if that might be in some way possible, I realized how ridiculous this claim was. He' would have quickly died, in deep space, billions of miles away from Earth, in a part of space where the Earth would only arrive decades later.
Yes, yes, YES! I started watching your videos again after a while of not watching them, hoping to get that awesome sense of learning about an idea or concept that absolutely blows my mind, and will permanently stick with me forever and thus forever change my perspective about the world around me. This video absolutely helped me get my fix, especially that idea of the universe stretching being what we perceive as the movement of time. That is insane because it makes so much sense.
Joe Scott I would say that Carnot laid the foundations for the second law. Carnot’s theorem was concerned with the maximum efficiency of any possible engine, but was theorised at a time when the obsolete caloric theory of heat (where heat was seen as a fluid moving from hot to cold bodies) was still being considered seriously. Carnot’s theorem (1824) came long before the first law of thermodynamics had been defined by Clausius in 1850. Clausius and Kelvin then went on to define their respective statements of the second law; Clausius’ Statement being defined in 1854 and Kelvin’s Statement being defined in 1851.
That banana thing in reverse was trippy. As Joe "unchewed" the banana into bigger and bigger bits, the banana reassembled itself into a whole bite, at which point Joe spat it back onto the whole banana, which resorbed it. Such is the pervasiveness of entropy that it is mentally uncomfortable just to watch it run in reverse.
Perhaps. But I think you may be generalizing a little too much. Perhaps your incomfortability has more to do with watching someone spit up food than it has to do with entropy. I mean... crapping out food is following the laws of entropy too, would it make you uncomfortable to watch someone else do it? But I think I'd be perfectly comfortable watching an egg be unfried, so I dont think "entropy" is the deciding factor about what is "comfortable to watch" here.
9:10 But in steins gate they address this and come up with a solution of locking the time machine to the gravitational field of the earth, or something. So theres that.
ichibanalpha I’ve never seen that concept published anywhere but that is exactly what I’ve theorized as the only possibility to hold some relative positioning to the Earth. Though, I still would count in the spinning and tilt of the Earth which (if slipping between spacetime via wormhole) would most likely drop you either higher or lower in elevation from where you began oppose to where you reappeared.
Yeah, but since that scene was filmed in one take, I'd say that wasn't the _only_ banana he ate. If he had to do several takes, then he was probably full up to his neck with bananas and couldn't stomach that last bite. _Ooor,_ he got it right the first time and he hates finishing bananas. 🤷🏼♀️

@҉ Most people do. Take a stroll through your city and look at people dining in the local cafés. Most of them are talking and eating on the same time. The eating part is merely because it would be a great thing to do while hanging out.
In "the Hitch Hikers Guide to the Galaxy" Ford Prefect said to Arthur Dent: "Time is an illusion; lunch-time doubly so!" I'm sticking with that explanation,..... at least for the next few years!! ;D

Thank you for bringing up the problem of traveling in time and the planet not being there. This has been one of my big issues with the concept of time travel, you need to travel in space as well as in time. Explained nicely. ;)
Yeah, except it wouldn't really work the way he says either because there is no universal reference frame. The surface of the Earth moves with respect to the core, the Earth as a whole moves with respect to the sun, the sun moves with respect to the galaxy, the galaxy moves with respect to the local group, the local group moves with respect to the Virgo Supercluster, the Virgo Supercluster moves with respect to the Laniakea Supercluster, the Laniakea Supercluster moves with respect to the CMB, the CMB moves with respect to everything outside the observable universe... There's no way to pick where that chain ends, so saying you'd end up somewhere else isn't actually any more accurate than saying you wouldn't move at all. It would really depend on how your time machine worked, if it worked at all.
@@danieljensen2626 I think we are saying the same thing. You would (in my mind) travel in time but remain 'local' in space. So the earth wouldn't be where you are.
@@pete2861 But local doesn't mean anything. Your time machine being tied to a specific location on Earth honestly makes more sense than it being tied to the sun or the center of the universe or something. But again, it all depends on how your time machine works.
@@danieljensen2626 'local' meaning you are not moving through space-time. the earth is moving through space-time. So when you time travel, if it were possible, you are not traveling through space, you are only traveling through time. So local means some specific non-changing position in space-time, not a geographical location on a body moving through it.
@@pete2861 That's the problem though, there's no such thing. Motion is relative, everything is both moving and not moving. If you're thinking of positions in space as a point on a graph with coordinates, stop doing that because it's impossible. You say that the Earth is moving through space-time, but that's a meaningless statement because you haven't specified what it's moving relative to. The Earth isn't moving at all relative to itself, and it isn't moving at all relative to us (unless of course you're driving or walking or something). There are no such things as universal fixed points in Space-time that travel only in time and not in space, it depends on your reference frame. And no reference frame is better than any other. If your reference frame is Earth, you'd stay on the Earth. If it's the sun, yes you'd be ahead or behind the Earth in it's orbit. But your reference frame could just as well be any cosmic ray shooting past the Earth, in which case you'd fly off in a random direction. Or your reference frame could be Elon's Roadster from the Falcon Heavy Launch. If you're thinking "well the Sun in the correct reference frame", stop thinking that, because it isn't. There's no such thing as a "correct" or "incorrect" reference frame. They're all equally valid.
You really pulled off that banana part extremely well. What you were saying matched up with your movements so perfectly. As long as I didn't look at your mouth moving (or the banana), I'd probably have been convinced there was nothing amiss. Well done. :)
I believe that each of us is born into world knowing everything and to begin choosing our direction in life to accomplish our true purpose. We will keep coming back over and over to accomplish this. I can hardly wait to see what happens. Because we are all still in the middle of it. Brightest Blessings.

From Slaughterhouse Five: _"All moments, past, present and future, always have existed, always will exist. The Tralfamadorians can look at all the different moments just that way we can look at a stretch of the Rocky Mountains, for instance. They can see how permanent all the moments are, and they can look at any moment that interests them. It is just an illusion we have here on Earth that one moment follows another one, like beads on a string, and that once a moment is gone it is gone forever."_
Something that blows my mind is that from the Point of View of a Photon, time (and space) doesn't exist AT ALL. A photon is emitted from its source and absorbed at it's final destination, whatever and wherever that may be, *SIMULTANEOUSLY!* It may have traveled for TRILLIONS OF LIGHT YEARS from our non-relativistic perspective, but all that time and space it traveled through literally doesn't exist from its perspective.
@@visitorfromouterspacelooks4235 That's the whole point of general relativity, no? What you experience as reality is totally based on your reference frame, and there is by definition no absolute frame, so all Lorentz transformable frames are equally real. That may sound like I'm saying "reality is what you choose it to be!" in a woo-woo kind of way, but I'm not at all. observer *intent* has exactly zero effect. The only real you can alter your observational frame is by acceleration, deceleration, and/ vector change.
@@visitorfromouterspacelooks4235 okay man you need to stop confusing Einsteins theory of relativity with the man himself. His theory is rock solid. The man himself was a womanizing dickhole full of crazy ideas. Not to mention this is the guy who fought tooth and nail against quantum physics. So I suspect this quote about "objective reality" was ripped out of context from a debate with bohr or something.
NO. It is relative. Hence the name of the Special and General Theories of RELATIVITY. Meaning, essentially everything is relative to something else. It is a real, measurable, demonstrable thing. In fact we would not have GPS satellites and accurate mapping if we did not understand it, and so account for the error or discrepancy. The closer to a mass, the slower time passes, or a clock ticks. The faster one is moving relative to another object, the slower the time passes as recorded from each location. It can take some getting used to and understanding. But this IS a real thing and apparently how out Universe actually works. Nature and the real world has no obligation, or owes us no explanation for how shit is. It is up to us to work it out and accept that is how it seems to be.

Moving a boat, or foretelling future events, or healing people from miles away are CRAZY easy for a being that IS everyWHERE and everyWHEN. All at the same time. Sounds like something 4+dimensional entering our meager 3rd dimension as we're propelled by that 4th dimension ourselves. We're in the lazy river of Time. Jesus created the river, and then got it moving.
Great video, Joe! Had me brainstorming ALL DAY! 👍
I’m absolutely loving your videos. I’ve been sending several links to my son. He’s only 12, but he’s incredibly eager to learn about higher-level topics, such as relativity. I really appreciate that you cover complex topics without coming across as pretentious or boring, and you have an ability to explain things that pretty much anyone that’s paying attention can understand. You are a gentleman and a scholar, sir. Thank you.
You've definitely raised your son well. Hope he's still fascinated by learning. I hated school and learning stuff I wasn't interested in in general. Never done any homework or revision for exams etc. Luckily for me I could retain what I was taught in class to a decent extent so when it came for final exams I scraped by with B's and C's which I was happy with. It's only been since I turned 23ish that I started to study science for the fun and joy of learning for the sake of it. I wonder sometimes with regret if I actually had this thirst for knowledge during my school years, whether I could have done better, went to university, and been in a different line of work. I'm a network engineer, which is still a good job, but always get those 'what if' moments. Sorry for my life story lol.
You ate a banana, then an ananab ate you.
...in soviet russia...
Should it not be “you ate a banana, then: ?uoy eta ananab a”
Lol
Superb observation!
You ate banana then you throw up ananab...
Banana for scale!
January 19, 2022 - Joe, I just watched and enjoyed you talking to me about 2.5 years ago! I’ve watched MOST of your videos and have to keep going to the past to enjoy more of your videos in my future! You are right, time IS hard to understand 😁
You can time travel to the future by moving slowly too. The less i do each day, the more days blur together and woosh, a week went by and i did nothing useful...again...
Yea, I have to will myself to take a piss. My life is a dumpster fire.
Yesterday Joe: No one thinks about the people in 200 years!!
Today Joe: The only time that matters is right now
:P
Beautiful
I got smug poisoning off that apology to the future thing. Dropped in to see if it was going to be a continuing trend and am glad to see this one is a bit more... watchable.
It's like he's about to do an inspirational TED talk.
Yesterday Joe doesn't matter. You know what comes from living in the past? Depression!
@@MIck-M We get it, you don't care about the future.
Thank you! You're the only person I've ever heard have that evaluation of time travel and physical displacement. :D
It does give on explanation as to why we have not seen time travellers from the future yet. They keep missing.
I've got to try and explain this to my boss... "I'm not REALLY an hour late boss!"
This is the real reason why moms say don't talk with your mouth full... You might go back in time and end up at the center of Earth's core. 🤣
Bosses get very anti-philosophical when you try this.
Thoughts on if entropy can be a reliable measure of time?
It seems to just 'measure information backward'.
@@joescott yes. yes they do.
Dude that's too funny. Totally something I would do.
What is Time?
Baby don't hurt me...
Don't hurt me...
No more.
Reminds me of that scene in black panther
Damn, I came here (too late) to write the very exact same thing! 😅 Guess Time just hurt me again 😄
i only wish they let Andy Serkis do a full cover of that song in Black Panther.
Wait a minute, did you just grab my ass?
Lol love it ....

just remember that your standing, on a planet that's evolving, and revolving at 900 miles an hour. Its orbiting its reckoned 90 miles every second, the sun that is the source of all our power; And the sun, and you, and me, and all the stars that we can see, are moving at a million miiiiles a daaaay, in an outer spiral arm, at 40 thousand miles an hour, of the galaxy we call the milky way!
One of my favorite songs!
Thank Eric Idle.....
Almost perfect. "It's orbiting at 90 miles a second, so it's reckoned"
Brilliant point raised on how when you travel back in time, you need to also travel back in space. Awesome explanation!
🍌🍌🍌🍌🍌🍌🍌🍌🍌🍌
I realized that one myself on hearing about a guy who claims he traveled back in time decades, as part of some military project.
After just a few seconds wondering if that might be in some way possible, I realized how ridiculous this claim was. He' would have quickly died, in deep space, billions of miles away from Earth, in a part of space where the Earth would only arrive decades later.
You consistently expand the minds of all your viewership. Kudos!
I agree! Big African Antelopes to you, Joe!!
**expanding minds** classic entropy in action. 🤔
Yes, yes, YES! I started watching your videos again after a while of not watching them, hoping to get that awesome sense of learning about an idea or concept that absolutely blows my mind, and will permanently stick with me forever and thus forever change my perspective about the world around me.
This video absolutely helped me get my fix, especially that idea of the universe stretching being what we perceive as the movement of time. That is insane because it makes so much sense.
I don't think Newton had anything to do with the second law of thermodynamics
Yes, Carnot should have been credited.
@@joescott Cool thanks for the response!
Joe Scott I would say that Carnot laid the foundations for the second law. Carnot’s theorem was concerned with the maximum efficiency of any possible engine, but was theorised at a time when the obsolete caloric theory of heat (where heat was seen as a fluid moving from hot to cold bodies) was still being considered seriously. Carnot’s theorem (1824) came long before the first law of thermodynamics had been defined by Clausius in 1850. Clausius and Kelvin then went on to define their respective statements of the second law; Clausius’ Statement being defined in 1854 and Kelvin’s Statement being defined in 1851.
To be fair, he did have a second law... . But the second law of thermodynamics is: "You don't talk about thermodynamics" - Tyler Durden.
Tell this to atoms, once constituting Newtons body.
That banana thing in reverse was trippy. As Joe "unchewed" the banana into bigger and bigger bits, the banana reassembled itself into a whole bite, at which point Joe spat it back onto the whole banana, which resorbed it. Such is the pervasiveness of entropy that it is mentally uncomfortable just to watch it run in reverse.
Perhaps. But I think you may be generalizing a little too much. Perhaps your incomfortability has more to do with watching someone spit up food than it has to do with entropy.
I mean... crapping out food is following the laws of entropy too, would it make you uncomfortable to watch someone else do it? But I think I'd be perfectly comfortable watching an egg be unfried, so I dont think "entropy" is the deciding factor about what is "comfortable to watch" here.
Joe you are simply genius!
I really liked the backwards video and how you're hand gestures were so almost on que and definitely appropriate.
So good.
Outstanding! This was one of my favorite videos. You did a terrific job explaining and portraying a theory of time travel. Great job sir
Loved the video as always, but... Mouth sounds from the banana...*shudders*
Yeah that was a bit of a gamble. If it wasn't Joe I would have jumped ship a second before the first bite.
weirdo
Yea. I couldn’t make it through.
Yup. Gross. 🤮
I stuck with it as I assumed he was doing it for a reason...because why else would the dude be eating a banana while talking and making a video?!
I love how he's just *extruding* banana.
9:10
But in steins gate they address this and come up with a solution of locking the time machine to the gravitational field of the earth, or something. So theres that.
ichibanalpha I’ve never seen that concept published anywhere but that is exactly what I’ve theorized as the only possibility to hold some relative positioning to the Earth.
Though, I still would count in the spinning and tilt of the Earth which (if slipping between spacetime via wormhole) would most likely drop you either higher or lower in elevation from where you began oppose to where you reappeared.
Not finishing the banana bothered me more than it should have.
Great video.
Yeah, but since that scene was filmed in one take, I'd say that wasn't the _only_ banana he ate. If he had to do several takes, then he was probably full up to his neck with bananas and couldn't stomach that last bite.
_Ooor,_ he got it right the first time and he hates finishing bananas. 🤷🏼♀️
Hi Joe, I watching this and the rest of your video with my son... We share the revelations and the headaches... Thank you for giving me the means to spend time with my son and connect with him... Love your works..

I so agree with you that we experience time as a proportion of our lives. This gives me comfort when I hear about the death of a child. To that child, they lived a lifetime.

WOOOOO 😂
It's the best....time
The thing we've never seen Joe do before: eat a banana and then vomit it back together. 🍌
Yeah, I was wondering why he was eating a banana, and figured he was going to eat it in reverse. I anticipated the future past!
Jan Hemstad Ah, THAT’s why the video didn’t match the audio!
@@stvp68 I think it did though

How many times did you draw up that time reversal scene before you decided on the banana?
HighFlyActionGuy ded lololol
@҉ I think it was clutch. Without using a prop it would have been harder to see and understand exactly what he meant as time moved backward.
@҉ Most people do. Take a stroll through your city and look at people dining in the local cafés. Most of them are talking and eating on the same time. The eating part is merely because it would be a great thing to do while hanging out.
14:22 That spoke to me brother.
Words to live by!!
What time is it? "Now or when you asked me"?
I really love your channel.. I have seen all your videos and i even re-watch them all the time
Sumit Kapoor ditto!
In "the Hitch Hikers Guide to the Galaxy" Ford Prefect said to Arthur Dent: "Time is an illusion; lunch-time doubly so!" I'm sticking with that explanation,..... at least for the next few years!! ;D

Luv u and your emotional intelligence+ sublime comic timing. More Joe please!
Thank you for bringing up the problem of traveling in time and the planet not being there. This has been one of my big issues with the concept of time travel, you need to travel in space as well as in time. Explained nicely. ;)
Yeah, except it wouldn't really work the way he says either because there is no universal reference frame. The surface of the Earth moves with respect to the core, the Earth as a whole moves with respect to the sun, the sun moves with respect to the galaxy, the galaxy moves with respect to the local group, the local group moves with respect to the Virgo Supercluster, the Virgo Supercluster moves with respect to the Laniakea Supercluster, the Laniakea Supercluster moves with respect to the CMB, the CMB moves with respect to everything outside the observable universe...
There's no way to pick where that chain ends, so saying you'd end up somewhere else isn't actually any more accurate than saying you wouldn't move at all. It would really depend on how your time machine worked, if it worked at all.
@@danieljensen2626 I think we are saying the same thing. You would (in my mind) travel in time but remain 'local' in space. So the earth wouldn't be where you are.
@@pete2861 But local doesn't mean anything. Your time machine being tied to a specific location on Earth honestly makes more sense than it being tied to the sun or the center of the universe or something. But again, it all depends on how your time machine works.
@@danieljensen2626 'local' meaning you are not moving through space-time. the earth is moving through space-time. So when you time travel, if it were possible, you are not traveling through space, you are only traveling through time. So local means some specific non-changing position in space-time, not a geographical location on a body moving through it.
@@pete2861 That's the problem though, there's no such thing. Motion is relative, everything is both moving and not moving. If you're thinking of positions in space as a point on a graph with coordinates, stop doing that because it's impossible. You say that the Earth is moving through space-time, but that's a meaningless statement because you haven't specified what it's moving relative to. The Earth isn't moving at all relative to itself, and it isn't moving at all relative to us (unless of course you're driving or walking or something).
There are no such things as universal fixed points in Space-time that travel only in time and not in space, it depends on your reference frame. And no reference frame is better than any other. If your reference frame is Earth, you'd stay on the Earth. If it's the sun, yes you'd be ahead or behind the Earth in it's orbit. But your reference frame could just as well be any cosmic ray shooting past the Earth, in which case you'd fly off in a random direction. Or your reference frame could be Elon's Roadster from the Falcon Heavy Launch.
If you're thinking "well the Sun in the correct reference frame", stop thinking that, because it isn't. There's no such thing as a "correct" or "incorrect" reference frame. They're all equally valid.
the banana bit reminded me of the red dwarf episode "Backwards"!
The final part about living in the perpetual moment is one of the smartest things I’ve heard. Great way of putting it!

You really pulled off that banana part extremely well. What you were saying matched up with your movements so perfectly. As long as I didn't look at your mouth moving (or the banana), I'd probably have been convinced there was nothing amiss. Well done. :)

From Slaughterhouse Five:
_"All moments, past, present and future, always have existed, always will exist. The Tralfamadorians can look at all the different moments just that way we can look at a stretch of the Rocky Mountains, for instance. They can see how permanent all the moments are, and they can look at any moment that interests them. It is just an illusion we have here on Earth that one moment follows another one, like beads on a string, and that once a moment is gone it is gone forever."_

Something that blows my mind is that from the Point of View of a Photon, time (and space) doesn't exist AT ALL. A photon is emitted from its source and absorbed at it's final destination, whatever and wherever that may be, *SIMULTANEOUSLY!* It may have traveled for TRILLIONS OF LIGHT YEARS from our non-relativistic perspective, but all that time and space it traveled through literally doesn't exist from its perspective.
@@visitorfromouterspacelooks4235 That's the whole point of general relativity, no? What you experience as reality is totally based on your reference frame, and there is by definition no absolute frame, so all Lorentz transformable frames are equally real. That may sound like I'm saying "reality is what you choose it to be!" in a woo-woo kind of way, but I'm not at all. observer *intent* has exactly zero effect. The only real you can alter your observational frame is by acceleration, deceleration, and/ vector change.
An eternity could pass between each moment and we could never know it.
@@visitorfromouterspacelooks4235 okay man you need to stop confusing Einsteins theory of relativity with the man himself. His theory is rock solid. The man himself was a womanizing dickhole full of crazy ideas. Not to mention this is the guy who fought tooth and nail against quantum physics. So I suspect this quote about "objective reality" was ripped out of context from a debate with bohr or something.
So, reality is equally as valid as a photon's. I didn't know that they basically also didn't experience space, so that's interesting.

Is time absolute/relative?
Einstein’s special relativity: well yes, but actually no
NO. It is relative. Hence the name of the Special and General Theories of RELATIVITY. Meaning, essentially everything is relative to something else.
It is a real, measurable, demonstrable thing. In fact we would not have GPS satellites and accurate mapping if we did not understand it, and so account for the error or discrepancy. The closer to a mass, the slower time passes, or a clock ticks. The faster one is moving relative to another object, the slower the time passes as recorded from each location.
It can take some getting used to and understanding. But this IS a real thing and apparently how out Universe actually works.
Nature and the real world has no obligation, or owes us no explanation for how shit is. It is up to us to work it out and accept that is how it seems to be.
