What is time?

Here is a possible explanation.

from JoeUser Forums 
Time is the propagation of electromagnetic radiation,time is light.
The speed of light is a constant because there is no way to
detect time changing speed in your own frame of reference.
The speed of time-light is only an operant constant.
The universe is filled with electromagnetic radiation,
light has a finite speed possibly because light must travel through itself,
this could be the limiting factor.Only light can travel at the speed
of light because light is time. If you could travel at the
speed of time,for you no more time can pass.AS you approach the speed
of time-light,time-light gains on you less and less and time-light for you slows down
but you can not detect this until you return to the clock you left at home.
You can't measure the contraction of the length of an object with a ruler
that is contracting with the object,time-light is the ruler.
If light traveled at an infinite speed,reality would end with one spike
in an infinitely short time.
The universe must be AC.

I believe that,
for us the only thing that you can experience and really exists is the past,
our future is the present that is impossible to measure.

Terribly sorry but I beg to differ, The past is just that, memories.

-Just because you (think) you remember something there's nothing to say that it couldn't have been implanted by, let's call it "Higher beings/powers".

-The only thing you can experience is the "now" which doesn't really exist for us either as we, as stated, perceive time as constantly moving forward (just to make this thing about time a little bit more F'd up) ;)

Time is what many people waist, always thinking they will do it tomorrow. Should have done it when they thought about doing it.

Time is when people wonder "where did the time go" It moved forward as it always does and you did nothing about using it. Time decided not to wait till you decided to use it correctly or exactly how you wanted to use it.

We do projects and something went wrong and we have to start over again. One may say "what a waist of time" No it wasn't because something was learned so we wouldn't do it wrong again next time. No time is wasted when learning things.

We do things we like, enjoy, or even projects or work. Things get done and we wonder where that time went. Time went forward as it should but we made good use of it.

Use time wisely because as soon as I hit "Post Reply" I may not be here anymore to know what time is doing for me.

Let's say you are in an infinite perfect vacuum and your space ship is the
only thing in the vacuum.
Now you turn on your engines and accelerate,
what are you moving through?
I thought about this a lot and I think
the only thing you are moving through is time.

Your on a space ship now,it's called earth & is a giant bio dome hurtling out of control through space.It's only a mater of time before we smash into something,when that day comes assume the position & kiss your sweet ass goodbye :grin:

The space/time continuum or just space/time. And, believe it or not, there's no such thing as empty space or a perfect vacuum, zero point energy has been observed. Plus you can move through a medium (water...air...space) but not through a man made concept.

I often wonder if we could tack through time like a sail boat tacks into the wind,
and keep our clocks synchronized?

It would be like 'surfing' through the time zones. In this case it would be time lines rather than zones. Instances of time in an infinite variety. Choose your path very carefully. Getting lost in time would not be fun.
