Time traveling is just full of crap, innit?

RE: Time traveling is just full of crap, innit?
Again though what actual reference frame are we talking about. If what's 10 minutes for me is 1 minute for you then relatively those are different times but objectively if 1 minute passes 1 minute passes, if 10 minutes passes 10 minutes passes. It doesn't matter what the clocks or watches say. You don't need time keeping for time to exist. Time is objectively what is at time T. Whether it's what was time T, what is time T or what will be time T and then is quite simply then and now is quite simply now.

You're talking about 'time passing' differently from different frames of reference. But science can only measure phenomenologically: it relies on observers and their tools and consciousness. Even clocks and watches are extentions of this because we have to be consciously aware of them to use them.

Objectively speaking does time even pass? I don't think so. Time is just a concept. All there is is now. We don't actually experience time passing, it's an illusion.

We can't experience time passing.

Which one of your experiences would be the experience of time passing?

Watch this video you learn more on that:
