I heard from someone about the relativity of spacetime, time is slowest near the center of a huge gravity source like blackhole so out here earth time is actually relatively fast and are speeding up due to expansion, as the further our galaxy/universe is flying apart the less mass and less gravity can slow them down
So our relative spacetime scale of a billion years here, might just be a few hours inside some of those crazy dense SUPER MASSIVE blackholes
And with that in mind and some loose sense our whole simulation might just took 1 second of the creator's relative time because...time is relative , just a loose assumption
- pizzaparty2 7y agoThe first time I heard of this being noticeable on a human timescale was the movie Interstellar. But I don't no think in real life there is that much of a difference between the rate at which time passes near a large mass. This answer on Quora says the rate at which time passes on Jupiter is only a few nanoseconds off compared to Earth. https://www.quora.com/Will-time-pass-slower-if-we-go-to-Jupiter-for-example https://www.quora.com/Will-time-pass-slower-if-we-go-to-Jupi...
- webnrrd2k 7y agoI read recently, I've forgotten where, that the cumulative time difference for the center of the earth (relative to the surface) is about four minutes.
- _0ffh 7y agoIIRC I read that for an outside observer everything that is sucked into a black hole does never actually pass "into" it. The closer it gets to the event horizon, the slower it's clock runs (from an outside perspective), and gradually stops upon approaching the horizon itself. [!] That seems like a rather large difference. [!] Disclaimer: I don't know if that interpretation is still considered valid. Edit: Formatting
