'The past is a mental recollection or record of events that took place in the present. Therefore, only two states of reality exists, and that is the present and the future. What 'is' and what will 'be.' The past is not a fixed or objective reality. It is a fluid state, often changed by our perceptions.'Time, time travel, black holes, the origins of the universe, and the thirteen month calendar are explored in this philosophical look at the Universe. This book is not about humanity’s philosophical relationship with time, but rather a fundamental understanding of how time functions in our society and universe. We must first define what it is, before we can explore why it is.
