Time is not the fourth dimension of spacetime, nor is it an
absolute quantity that flows on its own, Slovenian researchers
say. Instead, they propose that time is simply a measure
denoting the numerical order of change. This new theory is based
on the fact that not even famed physicist Albert Einstein
believed that time (t) was the fourth dimension. In other words,
when we look at space, we shouldn't see three dimensions (3D)
plus time, but rather four dimensions (4D). According to the new
proposal, time can only be used to measure numerical order of
material change, and not to explain other phenomena that go on
in the material world. The new study was conducted by
investigators at the Scientific Research Center Bistra (SRCB),
in Ptuj. By looking at the Universe from this perspective, the
team argues, explaining quantum information transfers become a
lot easier. A 4D space provides the best possible medium for
such transfers. One of the primary arguments in the new proposal
is that time has absolutely no prim
