The nature of time is one of the great mysteries of reality. On one hand, time is a puzzling enigma that has eluded all of humanity’s attempts at total comprehension. On the other hand, time is the most familiar thing in the world. And while the subject has been studied for thousands of years, there remains no scientific consensus as to what time really is. Our human experience is that time is something which flows from the past to the future, and we as subjects, are carried along its progressive linear current. And yet, our physical models of time argue that the universe is one big block in which all moments past, present and future, exist somewhere permanently along the block’s temporal dimension. What’s more, the second law of thermodynamics, entropy and the “arrow of time” tell us that time, as we experience it at the human level, does not exist as such in the microphysical world: were we able to witness reality at that level, the difference between the past and the future would…
