What time is it?

If time varied throughout the universe then the basic cosmological principle would seem not to apply.

The whaat?

The whaat?

The [Basic] Cosmological Principle states than when viewed on sufficiently large distance scales, there are no preferred directions or preferred places in the Universe. The Universe is homogeneous and isotropic. Stated another way, the principle means that averaged over large enough distances, one part of the Universe looks pretty much like any other part.

What we really need is HG Wells to come straighten things out... once its put into the form of a novel, I might have half an idea as to what you scientific sorts are talking about

If time varied throughout the universe then the basic cosmological principle would seem not to apply.

How so?

 

[Truronian]

IIR, we can't even be sure that our rules of Physics apply universally, so who knows?

From a mathematical perspective, I imagine it must be constant (dt/dt = 1). Or at the very least modeled as constant.

All to confusing
