Time ran 5x slower in the early universe
www.eurekalert.org Quasar ‘clocks’ show Universe was five times slower soon after the Big Bang
Quasars are the supermassive black holes at the centres of early galaxies. Scientists have unlocked their secrets to use them as ‘clocks’ to measure time near the beginning of the universe.
In the early universe time ran much slower compared to the current period. This was already known, but scientists have pushed this back to a billion years after the big bang, when time ran 5x slower compared to now.

So 5 days would be 1 day. And 50 years would be 10 years. Fucking hell. Time seems like an inanimate illusion, but is infact so real and fascinating
