While we model them as remaining as the same species, they become relativistic and essentially have an effective mass far greater than at rest. Do you suggest that they fundamentally change? If so by what mechanism and how? Because this change has to be smooth, if it is abrupt, particle accelerators would not work.edit on 23-2-2013 by ErosA433 because: (no reason given)

If time moved at an infinite frequency, with infinite length, and thus made its way forward, then the idea that something could cross the entire universe, instantly doesn't seem that hard to grasp.
Time starts on one side of the universe, and crosses to the other side of the universe and then reverses direction, and crosses back across the entire universe. We only see this as time moving forward,

From all concepts of time, we seem to look at it as DC, moving forward in one direction, but what if time moves like everything else we have observed, as a frequency.

Wow angelic, that did just sound like a few lines of buzzwords that don't really seem to put forward any plausible explanation, i am sorry to say.

Well the direction it would go and how it would end up would be completely different you are correct, as the Earths orbital location would not be viable anymore. My point really was that the experiment of testing that would be impossible.
The gravitational assist still works regardless of the 'speed to gravity'

I honestly don't know; I just make the best logical assumptions based on data and theory, and try to visualize the mechanics involved from the concepts by other things found in nature and make a stab of a guess. I think of space similar to the air around us; different in the amount of it's composition of course. If there was no vacuum then it's likely we could stay out in it a lot longer, some space accidents have occurred where people have been unprotected in space the guess is; we can survive approximately 6 minutes in it.
Like the air around us; it can have hot and cold spots, clouds of gas and particles, even simple sugars, there are also vortexes of sorts called gravity wells and black holes. (which makes me wonder how a vortex in a vacuum would behave)
Here's a video that helps conceptualize gravity wells:
The space time curve business came from Einstein and has been expounded on. There are concepts that are hard to visualize no matter what...like what is between galaxies? Is there really some fabric in space of sorts that can tear? To myself that is a very bizarre whacked out concept to consider; I think of it more as a colloidal suspension in whatever that is between galaxies is composed of...
Like our own root origin we will most likely pass away before ever knowing a concrete answer...so no harm in thinking about the possibilities; fun stuff. Here's a video that's fun to watch it's not to scale but shows space interactions very well; it's a simulation of Space Debris orbiting Earth.

Did the time of the universe/materials of the universe/space of the universe exist before the universe was born?
Do you believe in the big bang model?

Time and point mass existed but no space.
Big bang = yes
