      Objective now does not exist only in relativity. Theories like Einstein's can sometimes create an illusion of false reality based on unfalsifiable experiments. Because our knowledge is rooted in these false maps of reality, we cannot comprehend the gap between quantum mechanics and relativity.

      The problem is how speed is measured. It is measurement problem. 186000 miles/second. This per second/minute/hour/days/weeks/years is the problem. Distance we travel, we can see the for example 100 meter dash run, but TIME! Is so subjective ill defined.
      Until we know what is time, how we define time, we may never know light properties.

    YES!!! When I see a new upload from this channel, I get so happy. I used to be happy and excited about life when I was studying physics in college. Taught high school physics after that and had so much fun with my classes. Unfortunately, the reality of low teacher pay, new family on the way, and my other option to make more than double if I work with computers, I went back to my tech job. Now I am almost always depressed, feel like there is no hope and nothing to look forward to in life any more.
    That being said, whenever I see these videos it takes me back to my happy place. Thanks for all the effort you guys put in to put these out. They mean the world to some of us.

      Can you teach at a higher level, like at a bustling university, sometimes part time instruction is needed which can pay well enough to fit in some part time teaching. Even offering tutoring can help fill that desire to teach? Even when I did teach there were special needs students that need additional help and can be very exciting to see how you can reach them and help them along. I am fearful that this next generation is really going to be a struggle with the necessary people interaction skills.

    I'm left with a question. When you die, your brain neuro pathways fire slower as you become brain dead. So, will our perception of time when we die slow down to an infinite perception on the last neuro event?

    The section towards the end would be even better to include how the "Brain makes decisions before you even know it" - published in Nature on April 11, 2008. Brain activity predicts decisions up to 10 seconds before they are consciously made! This directly impacts our sense of having free will - actions that we take are set in our brain - and can be predicted by instruments - before we are aware we “decide” to take that action.

      From this all else is derived,
      much of which is conceptual
      including past, present, future and self,
      via the miracle of processes which, like patterns, have an innate ability to represent.

    I think, the real question is, "is there a past or future?". Arguably, the "now" is all that can be said to exist since it is the only thing that can be perceived.
    The past has already happened and is no longer present, and the future is an abstract idea of the progression of now. Neither are tangible, only the "now".

      The “Now is the only time” isn’t a science idea. It’s a spiritual one. Don’t mentally live in the past or future. Live in the now.
      We know time is real. We start out as infants and grow to old age. If we’re lucky. The Universe has been emerging to its present state due to long passage of time.

    In spiritual practice - here and now - is of vital importance.
    It is easily realised - but really - with meditative mind and heart open - revealing depth and the right vibrations.
    Now - is not even intuited - by the measuring tendencies of senses - undisciplined and unmastered.
    We have no choice - but to work - training for innermost experience - and embrace now - in wonder/originality.
    Fare thee well.

    Some argue that “now” is the only time that truly exists, as the past is gone and the future is not yet here. Others suggest that time is an illusion, and everything is happening simultaneously, with our brains processing events as if they were occurring in a continuous sequence2.

      One doesn't need to argue as you can conceptualize time in different phenomena. One would be "Clock Time". Another would be "Psychological Time." Add if necessary.

      All simultaneously, in my opinion. Everything that was and will be is all happening at once on the same plane. Our limited human brain sequences the movement of the universe in what we consider "chronological order" but from the beginning to the end is all one....imo

      ​@@RealDonfromBroward It is weird the dilation of time that happens around consciousness or observation, there is nothing else, for 14. Something billion years and then the superposition of all the states of every piece of matter collapses with an observer.
      Just absolutely screeches to a halt so we can all have a snail race of consciousness trying to use the stream of absolutely bonkers information to output something useful to continue existing in what it sees as a valid state of now.
      When every one of us dies our lightcone of possible positions stretches out into infinity, instantly taking the memory of its position as a human of earth into the end of time.

      The “Now is the only time” isn’t a science idea. It’s a spiritual one. Don’t mentally live in the past or future. Live in the now.
      We know time is real. We start out as infants and grow to old age. If we’re lucky. The Universe has been emerging to its present state due to long passage of time.
      There is a real past and future.

    26:53 Never say "move through space", as it implies you can (it doesn't mean anything, nada, zip, nothing) there is no absolute rest frame and your are never moving relative to or through space. This is a great way to trip up students of special realtivity.

      To your question I say Yes.
      Keeping on mind that no point is fixed (everything is in constant motion), we move through space relative to some other moving point/s not a fixed or stationary point since there is no such thing as a fixed or stationary point. 😃

      Some angels once left their dimension to enter ours, they had no problem dealing with our 3 dimensional worlds 4th dimension. They came to mate with the women of our dimension and did so. IDK If you will consider the forthcoming children aliens or not but they had no issue with time either. This information comes from the book of Genesis with a few refraneses in other books of the Bible.
      As for space aliens originating from within our own dimension I have 0 credible information to offer you my friend 😢
      As for those particular aliens mentioned above they are locked away for now but the children they produced appear to have become what today are known as Demons and very likely present themselves as space aliens among other cleaver cons they do so love to run on us humans. Be careful dealing with any claims of space aliens, They not all as friendly as they may claim to be. 😮
