Chapter 3151
The universe had existed for over ten billion years. Although no one knew how long life had existed, at the very least, no one had truly figured out the universe during those ten-plus billion years.
How exactly had the universe come into being? Was it really expanding? Were those celestial bodies far older than the universe merely the result of calculation errors, or had they come from another universe? Was the universe unique? Did it have an edge? Once it expanded to its limit, would it collapse, or would something else happen? Humanity had far too many mysteries about the universe to explore and uncover. Although technology currently limited them, and scientists still had no way to leave the Solar System, that did not stop them from letting their imaginations run wild in this area.
Recently, scientists at the research institute had developed an entirely new perspective through their studies of spatial jumps—
Time was not one of the universe's fundamental dimensions.
This scientist's calculations and results always contained some discrepancies, and the data also deviated somewhat during actual jump tests.
Some believed this was perfectly normal. The universe was constantly expanding, so the coordinates calculated at one second had already shifted during the process of expansion.
Others believed this was the effect of time as a parameter. Time changed the state of matter, causing matter to age and decay, and the parameters naturally shifted as well.
One scientist removed the time factor from the entire jump formula and obtained better spatial coordinates. Thus, he proposed this theory.
Time did not actually exist.
The scientist who proposed this theory believed that humanity's definition of time was based on the movement of matter.
To put it simply, humanity had found the motion that best served as a benchmark among
