O knihe

Einstein said that E = mc2. There are a bunch of things this equation says and a lot more that it implies. Mainly, though, it says that there is a huge amount of energy trapped in mass and light. There was a time, we are told, when there was nothing and nothing was everything all trapped in a nothing called a singularity. In due course the singularity achieved its destiny: it became everything. An uncontrolled variable generated by this occurrence was where everything was. At the point of nothing becoming everything, everything was very close to where it had just previously been nothing. Not exactly, but close. But that was a fleeting condition. The energy released by nothing becoming everything brought a new condition into being: speed. Speed drove newly minted everything from wherever it had just not been to where it was about to be, and would continue to be for ... For what? We call it time. Time came into being as a byproduct of nothing becoming everything. It was the measure of - something - but it could be described by knowing where everything was then and where everything was now. Then and now were words not known before the singularity had become everything. Then and now are words that let humans sense a thing called time. Since then, once sensed, humans have figured out how to represent it with a thing called a clock. But you can't see time with a clock. You can only show the effects of its existence: clicks and clangs. Those are not time; they are just a way of indicating that something we really don't understand and really can't describe does in fact exist. That's strange.
