Time is one of those things that can cause huge debates. The first thing people need to realize about time is that it is completely relative to the human beings living on the third planet of the star Sol in the Orion Arm of the Milky Way galaxy.

If we were closer or further from the sun but still within the Goldilocks Zone, time would be different. It wouldn't be 24 hours around the sun. It may be 22 or 26. Everything else would be based off that. Even the length of an hour would possibly be different ( ... )

They asked him how much time had passed after 20 minutes. He thought it had only been 5 minutes ( ... )
