In this work, time has been considered from three different perspectives.
1.- TIME: From the origins of the universe.
2.- TIME: As a sequence of events.
3.- TIME: From the mind of an individual.
1.- TIME: From the origins of the universe.
(History) (Infinite time)
(Chessboard)
It could be said that chess is finite, as it is played on a board limited by 8 rows and 8 columns,
where 16 pieces on each side face off in a long and tedious battle with the sole objective of
capturing the opponent’s king. However, if we delve into the tense depths of the history of each
battle, of each game, we can observe the infinity within it. Each game is unique and unrepeatable.
After both sides have made their first move, there are four hundred possible positions to continue.
After the second move by both sides, the number of possible positions exponentially grows to one
hundred ninety-seven thousand seven hundred forty-two games. After the tenth move by both sides,
there are one hundred sixty-five trillion and a half different games. But if we continue with the
moves, we can reach the staggering number of 1 followed by one hundred thousand zeros… This
number surpasses all the atoms existing in the universe… I reaffirm, chess is infinite.
Age, Time = 14 billion years.
Big Bang Theory (Origin? or not?)
The beginning of the universe, that is, we are talking about the initial point where matter, space, and
time were formed.
-Concept of infinity.
We can use the known physical laws of nature to calculate the detailed characteristics of the
universe in the past, in an initial state of extreme density and temperature. If these known laws of
physics are extrapolated beyond the point where they are valid, we encounter a singularity, that is, a
point where we can get closer and closer, but never reach it. So if we imagine the development of
the universe in reverse temporal order, going back into the past, the universe becomes smaller and
smaller, but the amount of matter remains the same, so the density increases until it reaches the
point where time is equal to 0 (T=0) and the density of matter and energy becomes infinite.
Surpassing Planck density (This unit is enormous, approximately equivalent to 10 to the 23 solar
masses compressed into the space of a single atomic nucleus). It is thought that a Planck time unit
(Planck time or chronon is a unit of time considered to be the smallest time interval that can be
measured; in cosmology, Planck time represents the smallest instant of time in which the laws of
physics could be used to study the nature and evolution of the universe).
After the Big Bang, the density of the universe was approximately one Planck density unit.
This means that the equations fail because it is mathematically impossible to deal with infinite
numbers, and the process cannot be explained.
Hence, current physics has no explanation of what happened before the Big Bang, as there was no
time before the beginning of time.
-Perspective of time from the age of the universe.
-Concept of the time of the universe, Einstein’s theory of relativity.
-Black hole.
-White dwarfs and their density.
-Space-time deformation, and of matter (Spaghettification).
-Event horizon (Black hole).
-The theory of relativity tells us that time is relative and largely depends on the observer’s position
E= Mc2 (+ Younger, + Older depending on the position).
2.- TIME: As a sequence of events.
-The sequentiality of moments, one after another.
-The only way to be aware of time is by looking to the past.
(Sequence of an individual looking back).
3.- TIME: From the mind of an individual.
-A life, his life.
-The immortal jellyfish.
-The life of a human being is very short.
Age, time = 80 years
-Hence the anguish before death or the end (Wanting to stop time).
-Foucault’s pendulum (Stopping it).
-The eternity or immortality of the immortal jellyfish.
The so-called immortal jellyfish, Turritopsis dohrnii, is the only living being capable of going back
in time, that is, returning from an adult developmental state to an earlier state.
