Time

Imagine an explosion in Space. In space there is no resistance as there would be inside an atmosphere or ocean or in the landed parts of the earth. Because there is no resistance the explosion in a sense never ends. Once any body is set in motion it will stay in motion until it hits or embeds in some other object like a planet or star or other piece of something that has exploded or started moving for some reason.

So, if you imagine the asteroid coming by today within 17,000 miles of earth having come from an explosion 65 million years ago is still moving, then we begin to see how this explosion affected the past, the present and the future. My point is that everything each of us think, say or do is like this, in that whatever we think, say or do affects the present, and the future, but then this present and future soon becomes the past. But, whatever we did doesn't stop affecting the future. And in looking at our Time, Space Continuum in this way we better understand Time and Space and our affect as humans on it. We do not only affect the now by what we think, say and do. We also affect all time to come in many many different ways. This is true of all humans.
