Default Re: before and after time...

So if the universe were to continue expanding, wouldn't time start to distort once the universe expands enough? I know that that would be a [b]really]/b] long time away, but still. Our grandkids to the 100th power could end up having something like 30 hours in a day.
Distort? The expansion of the universe won't distort time.


Gravitational fields distort time though. This is called time dilation, which is fused into relativity. But again this has nothing to do with the universes expansion.


When the universe stands expanding retardedly fast it will just destory all of the matter within it and convert it to pure energy. This does suck quite a bit XD But won't happen for atleast 50 billion years, if it does happen.
