Historical Perspectives
Ancient Civilizations: Early human societies measured time using natural phenomena—such as the movement of the sun, moon, and stars. The Sumerians, Egyptians, and Mayans developed calendars and astronomical observations.

Mechanical Clocks: The invention of mechanical clocks in medieval Europe revolutionized timekeeping. By the 14th century, clocks with escapements allowed for more accurate tracking of hours and minutes.

Standard Time: The 19th century saw the establishment of standard time zones, essential for railways and communication networks. Sir Sandford Fleming proposed a worldwide standard time system in 1879, leading to the adoption of Greenwich Mean Time (GMT).

Scientific Developments

Relativity Theory: Albert Einstein's theories of relativity in the early 20th century fundamentally altered our understanding of time. Time is relative, affected by speed and gravity, leading to the concept of spacetime.

Quantum Mechanics: In the realm of the very small, time behaves differently. Quantum mechanics introduces probabilities and uncertainties, challenging classical notions of time as a linear, continuous progression.

Technological Advances
Atomic Clocks: The development of atomic clocks in the mid-20th century provided unprecedented precision. These clocks, based on the vibrations of atoms, are accurate to within billionths of a second.

Global Positioning System (GPS): GPS technology relies on the precision of atomic clocks to provide accurate positioning information. Time synchronization is crucial for the system's accuracy.

Cultural Aspects

Perception of Time: Different cultures perceive and value time differently. Western cultures often see time linearly and quantitatively, while many Eastern cultures view it cyclically and qualitatively.

Time in Art and Literature: Time has been a central theme in art, Lost Time" to Salvador Dalí's "The Persistence of Memory" explore the nature and impact of time.

Future Directions

Temporal Physics: Research in temporal physics explores the nature of time, including the possibility of time travel, the directionality of time, and the flow of time in different environments.

Artificial Intelligence and Time: AI can change how we interact with and manage time, from personal productivity tools to large-scale simulations of temporal processes.

Societal Changes: As technology accelerates, our relationship with time continues to evolve. Concepts like the "singularity" suggest a future where time's progression could be fundamentally different from our current understanding.

This is associated with a FUSION REACTOR (works like our sun, NOT nuclear at all) that has an actual patent now. It can power satellite weapons systems (directed energy I assume), fits in the nose of an F-16, can power an aircraft carrier, or 100,000 homes. It basically runs on elements extracted from say, sea water. It has no nuclear components, and virtually no polluting by products. I keep telling these Green New Deal morons that THIS is where we should be spending money on research, not unicorns and windmills. https://www.sandboxx.us/blog/navy-team-floats-idea-for-a-spacetime-modification-weapon-more-powerful-than-nukes/

I will be trying to get patent and patent application numbers on these. CLAIM: Fusion reactors exist that can fit in the nose of an F-16, run an aircraft carrier and cheaply power 100,000 homes each with no harmful byproducts like nuclear reactors. Very interesting paper, but no patent related numbers provided. I will have to use some patent detective work, which I know how to do: https://www.sandboxx.us/blog/navy-team-floats-idea-for-a-spacetime-modification-weapon-more-powerful-than-nukes/

anyone who TRUELY knows Jesus shouldn't be worshipping him, he only tried to teach the truth. which all of christians and catholics have tainted, he taught the teachings of the first Christ, Ahkanatan, the first Pharoh of Egypt.

Ahkanatan, was taught everything he knows about the creation process and his Christ level conciousness, from Thoth, who taught him of the 3 levels of creation

the 3 lower dimensions,
Time
Space
and the singularity of

Spacetime or
The material dimension. ( where we exist in physical form)

Now its about teaching what Jesus was crucified for, the same process of creation

creating within the 4th dimension, the spirit realm, then mixing the spirit realm with the physical realm to create the 5th dimension, other known and depicted in religious scripture as "Ascension"

Ahkanatan "Nor will they say "'Look here, or Look there!" for the Kingdom of God is within you!"

So a guy tried to educate me on the age of the universe, its size and all that BS this morning. So I made a simple response for him;
Think about this for a moment. What is the Approx speed of light and we know for a scientific fact that nothing can travel as fast or faster?

The Universe is said to be what 13.8 billion years old.

And while we are on the subject, just the known universe is how far across? 28 billion parsecs (93 billion light-years).

So if any of that is even remotely accurate how did the universe go from one singular (Singularity) point in Spacetime explode and expand out to 93 billion lightyears across in only 13.8 billion years?

And what is the known result of telling a lie? You have to make up another lie to cover the previous lie and so one and the lies get bigger and more fantastic as time progresses and then yo are not able to remember the previous lies yo have told so nothing actually fits the current lie.
