If all observational perspectives are equally valid, each one having an observation (experience?) of time relative to that perspective (and it seems like that may be the case), what sort of observational perspective (if any, this may be incoherent) could theoretically observe multiple perspectives simultaneously?
We can collect the data from multiple perspectives and analyze the differences, such as flying synchronized clocks in different directions as was done in the 1971 Hafele-Keating experiment which verified Einstein's Relativity predictions regarding time dilation (along with many other confirming experiments sense, including all the GPS satellites which have to take Special and General Relativity into account to be at all accurate), but I'm not sure there would be a way for a single observer to actually witness multiple perspectives simultaneously as you posit since you can't be two places at once.
