The concept of time has evolved from being seen as an absolute, consistent reality as proposed by Newton, to being understood through Einstein’s relativity, which shows its dependency on gravity and motion. However, quantum mechanics challenges this view even further, treating time as an external parameter rather than an intrinsic aspect of reality. Some physicists posit that time emerges from quantum interactions, suggesting that its perceived flow might not exist independently, raising profound questions about the nature of reality and our understanding of the universe.
Some physicists now believe that time isn't fundamental at all but is something that emerges from the way quantum systems interact.
Einstein showed that time isn't universal-it bends and stretches depending on gravity and motion.
