Fundamental Nature of Space &Time

Abstract

This paper lays a hypothesis about the fundamental nature of Space and Time. Time is absolute as well as relative. Relative quantity can occur only if the absolute exists in the theory. It is an established fact that elementary particles such as quarks keep forming up in space and keep decaying. This happens in the quantum foam due to the presence of quantum vacuum fluctuations. The quantum vacuum fluctuations are caused by time energy as per the design of Consciousness (sentience). This theory aims to explain the workings of relative time, motion in the cosmos and the source of energy of the quarks, electrons and other elementary particles. This model accounts for observations such as the correlation of distance and redshift of galaxies. The conclusions of the paper are as follows:

(a) Time is an absolute dimension. What we experience is a relative time.

(b) Time results from the capability of interpretation of past, present and future. Any entity that experiences only the present would not appreciate time without memory or correlation.

(c) Time results from the motion. If the motion stops, time stops. Stoppage of motion in the electrons and other quarks may lead to the disintegration of all matter.

(d) The backward movement of time towards the past is a fantasy and so is time travel in backward time.

(e) Time is resultant of energy that causes motion. Time and space are similar substances (of energy) but vary in effect.

(f) The quantum vacuum fluctuations in dark energy are caused by time energy, guided by space energy as per the will of Consciousness.

(g) Consciousness is a para dimension besides space, time, energy, matter and intelligence.

(h) The homogeneity, isotropism and continuous expansion of space may be an incorrect conclusion.
