Time Is Terrific!!

Hello again to the world of renowned scienctists. Fancy having more scientific knowledge? Then this blog is for you! Now, the topic. Have you guys ever think about time? No? Then you guys are totally taking things for granted! Time is a complicated thing to study. The most famous person for this job is……Albert Einstein! The renowned scientist(who likes to stick his tongue out) is the first to define time. He says time and space are the same thing and came up with a complicated formula that even now, there are still scientists who don’t understand it. So, what is time? Time is the chronological interval between events measurable by atomic oscillation. Um… pardon me if you don’t understand. Neither do I. Mind you, you need a brain as big as an elephant’s to understand that! Oh, here’s Albert Einstein:


Now, let’s move on. Before time, there was nothing. Absolutely nothing. Not even a speck of atom. Then an explosion occured. It is called the Big Bang and marks the start of time. It is the Big Bang that creates the Universe. Without it, I wouldn’t even be here typing! Space and time are related in some ways. Just imagine time and space as a straightened out carpet that is floating in the air(like the flying magic carpet from "Aladin".) You see, each object in space has mass. The more the mass, the more its pull of gravity. Now, just imagine some balls of different size were put onto the carpet. The one with the most massTim will ‘attract’ the other balls towards it. That is, the smaller balls will gather around the biggest one. That’s rule number one.

Number two. Light is the fastest thing in the world. At a speed of km/h, it can get to the sun in just eight minutes, which is about 150 million kilometres away! The closer you get to the speed of light, the slower time goes. If you are travelling at the speed of light, time ‘freezes’! That’s a I am gonna say for today.
