Yeah that was kinda the message I took from it aswell.loki J Lo wrote:With the TV screen thing, one of the people who review the movie on NG actually made more sense of it than I did when I made it. Something about the world was completely dependent on clocks, so it literally falls apart when they stop.

Colicedus' theroy on time: Time is a byproduct of gravity.
Acording to what I know: As the world spins on its axis and drifts around the world, it creates a gravitaonal force that holds us down, and in theroy, creates the effects of time. acording to what I learned in Elementery, people do not age in outer space. Aging is something that comes of time. If all the clocks stop working, dose that mean, time has run out or dose that mean that time is marching on, and that all and that the world has just come to its knees by Murphy?
Prove me wrong!

Einstein would have something to say about this.Chainsaw man wrote:Colicedus' theroy on time: Time is a byproduct of gravity.

If I remember correctly he theorized that if you are moving very fast time will appear to move more slowly to an observer than to you. So maybe it's not that people don't age in outer space, it's that they are moving much faster than normal and therefore seem to age more slowly. I probably fudged this up.
I am not sure if you are being serious, but people do age in space at the same rate people on Earth do. If you insist on taking gravitational time dilation into account, people in space will actually age slightly faster because time is less distorted around them by gravity then it is for people on Earth. However, this difference would be on the scale of nanoseconds.
