I'm definitely not a physicists but it occurs to me that we
misunderstand time. Time does not exist other than as a measurement of
distance. A day is the measurement of the earth's 360 degree
revolution… a distance of 24,901.55 miles at a point on the equator.
This is not counting the earth's rotation on it's axis merely because I
do not know what that is.
Then there is the earth's orbit around the sun. We call it a year
(consisting of 365.25 days). It really is 587,322,000 miles. Add in
the earth's revolutions during the orbit and a year equals 596,417,291
miles.
On my 60th birthday people will as me how old I am because it's easier
than asking how far I've traveled sitting still? Almost 36 billion
miles being the answer.
In the "time" it takes you to read this, you will have traveled almost
3,000 miles
