The Science Asylum | What the HECK is Time?! (in Einstein’s Relativity) @ScienceAsylum | Uploaded 4 years ago | Updated 4 hours ago
In special and general relativity, we imagine time as just another dimension of space in something called "spacetime." Unfortunately, this picture leads to questions about determinism and free will. Is that really how it works? What does the concept of spacetime actually say about the universe and about time?
