New definition of time?

A new definition of Time has been given by John T. Nordberg at his website Grandunification.

Let's try to look at time true God's eye:


You're looking at the real existing galaxy 'Helix Nebula' at 650 light-years away. As seen by the Hubble (Nasa)


What he states comes close to what stumbling scientists are looking for, for decades:




Time is a specific, constant quantity of motion that we use to measure all other
motions, and should be defined to be what is now called the speed of light.

In other words:



Time ≡ c



At first this seems somewhat strange, doesn't it? Shouldn't time be expressed in something like seconds or hours?

But time and space are connected in our universe. The only absolute connection between space and time is the speed of light ( c ), that is constant ( 299 792 458 m/s )in vacuum.

So we may define 1 second in time as the equivalent of 299 792 458 meters in space.

Of course, as we know that the speed of light differs for each medium



Medium
Speed of light in medium
Vacuum 299 792 458 m/s
Air is 299 702 547 m/s
Ice 228 849 204 m/s
Water 225 407 863 m/s
Glass 199 861 638 m/s


But the absolute speed of light in vacuum is the greatest speed achievable in our universe and therefore absolute.

John T. Nordberg claims more new interesting views on his webpage that sure deserve some more attention by professional scientists.

We conclude with his vision that Gravity (G) can be defined as the (outer vector)product of the Electric field (E) and the Magnetic field (B)



E x B = G




A more scientific approach is written by Richard Kaplan at:
