The first electric clock ever made.

What is time, is it an object, is it a thing? No, it is a reality, it is how people keep track every day. People use it every day to wake up, to fall asleep, to know what time there meeting is.

    Time was already created, but the Egyptians discovered time. The person who “Created time”, did not create time they just found it out, they just wanted a way to keep track of what time it is to wake up or do everything else and to keep track of the day. According to the cite, “the division of the hour into 60 minutes and of the minute into 60 seconds comes from the Babylonians who used a sexagesimal (counting in the 60s) system for mathematics and astronomy. They derived their number system from the Sumerians who were using it as early as 3500 B.C” (theguardian)

People ask is it possible to time travel, they ask that to NASA. NASA says there is by traveling at the speed of light, but we have not created a machine that can go that fast. Actually, according to the special theory of Relativity by Einstein, space and time are not absolute. They are just relative to the observer. If 2 observers move with different velocities, their observations of time are different from each other. You have to go so fast, like faster than the speed of light for there to be no such thing as time (Space)

   Is there a way to “control” time. In the future yes, but right now in the present then physically no. According to the cite, “the future scientist of NASA is trying to figure out a way to time travel” (spaceplace.NASA). Scientists do not know if you will become a different shape or form when time traveling yet because they do not know how to time travel. Einstein’s theory of special relativity says that time slows down or speeds up depending on how fast you move relative to something else. Approaching the speed of light, a person inside a spaceship would age much slower than his twin at home. Also, under Einstein’s theory of general relativity, gravity can bend time.

Concluding, time is everything around. Time is one of humans greatest inventions. Take time in consideration, you only live once. Like Benjamin Franklin said, “do not live to eat, eat to live”, that meaning take your time wisely and do not spend it on stuff that does not matter.
