Time on Atoms and Time of Space
What is time?
If no movement or no change is found in space, there is no time.
If everything is perfectly frozen, there is no time.
So, as long as light moves or travels in this space, there is time. And, interestingly this speed of light is almost perfectly constant, at 300,000 km per second. This means that the pace of progress of time is constant everywhere in this universe.
But, if an atom moves fast, time on the atom progresses slower than other atoms that do not almost move or move slowly. This sentence can be expressed in a different way: components of an atom moving faster vibrate slower than those of other atoms that do not almost move or move slowly.
For example, every hydrogen atom has one electron outside its nucleus. How fast this electron and this nucleus vibrate decides the pace of time or it is progress of time itself.
They say that if a rocket flies at a speed of 50% of the light speed, time flows slowly in the space inside the rocket. But this expression is not correct. There is no time fixed to empty space. Time is a phenomenon on each atom. So, you should say that all the atoms that compose the rocket flying at 50% of the light speed vibrate very slowly than those on the earth, so that time progresses slowly on all the atoms making up the rocket. Of course, astronauts and their watches inside the rocket have atoms that vibrate very slowly; accordingly they misunderstand that the space inside the rocket moves slowly.
However, it is not in space but on electrons and nuclei that time delays.
If all the atoms that compose your body vibrate slowly, time on you passes slowly than other people.
So, we have now two questions: (1) Why electrons and nuclei moving fast vibrate slowly and (2) what influence light has on time in the space.
One answer to (1) is that mass of those elementary particles inside an atom receives a kind of resistance from space; the faster they move, the slower they vibrate due to stronger friction with space, leading to slower time.
One answer to (2) is that though perfectly empty space has no time, this universe is full of light; accordingly, this space is full of time. The basic progress of time in this space is decided by light that flies at 300,000 km/s almost exactly.
However, the time in the rocket means the time of atoms constituting the rocket that exists in space. And the time on every atom is the secondary time compared with the time generated or represented by light.
The question (2) is more profound in its meaning.
Anyway, God is faster than light. So He can handle every past and every future at His will. It means this human history or the history of the whole universe is just one of His works that must be infinite in the number.
Einstein's theory of relativity predicts a limit in the speed that a thing can have. This limit is equal to the speed of light c and equals about 300.000 km/s.
The faster something moves, the slower time ticks away in that thing.
If the speed of a rocket is for example 4/5th of c (about 240.000 km/s) then one second on a clock in the rocket takes as much as 1.67 seconds according to the watch of somebody who stands still on the ground. So according to the man on the ground the clock in the rocket runs slow. He observes that the timespeed in the rocket is slower than his own.
