  2. Absolute space and time - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Absolute_space_and_time

    Absolute, true and mathematical time, of itself, and from its own nature flows equably without regard to anything external, and by another name is called duration: relative, apparent and common time, is some sensible and external (whether accurate or unequable) measure of duration by the means of motion, which is commonly used instead of true ...

  4. Relativity of simultaneity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relativity_of_simultaneity

    Roundtrip radar-time isocontours. The Lorentz-transform calculation above uses a definition of extended-simultaneity (i.e. of when and where events occur at which you were not present) that might be referred to as the co-moving or "tangent free-float-frame" definition. This definition is naturally extrapolated to events in gravitationally ...

    At 20, we think we have unlimited time, but that begins to change as we hit 50, 60 and up Time is relative. It's what you do doing during those precious moments that count.

  6. Problem of time - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Problem_of_time

    In theoretical physics, the problem of time is a conceptual conflict between quantum mechanics and general relativity.Quantum mechanics regards the flow of time as universal and absolute, whereas general relativity regards the flow of time as malleable and relative.

  7. Special relativity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special_relativity

    In physics, the special theory of relativity, or special relativity for short, is a scientific theory of the relationship between space and time.In Albert Einstein's 1905 paper, On the Electrodynamics of Moving Bodies, the theory is presented as being based on just two postulates: [p 1] [1] [2]

  9. Einstein synchronisation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Einstein_synchronisation

    Einstein synchronisation (or Poincaré–Einstein synchronisation) is a convention for synchronising clocks at different places by means of signal exchanges. This synchronisation method was used by telegraphers in the middle 19th century, [citation needed] but was popularized by Henri Poincaré and Albert Einstein, who applied it to light signals and recognized its fundamental role in ...
