Time Is of the Essence… or Is It?
Δημοσιεύτηκε στις 6 Αυγ 2015
What
is time? Isaac Newton described it as absolute, but Einstein proved
that time is relative, and, shockingly, that time and space are
intricately interwoven. Now recent work in string theory and quantum
gravity suggests that space and time may not be fundamental. If this is
true, what new picture of reality will emerge?
