The Science of Time: The Doctor Is Right

Jesse McDougall for GOOD Magazine:

“The Doctor is right. The speed at which time passes is both variable and malleable. We can speed it up. We can slow it down. In fact, you do so every day without even knowing it.”

Excellent article from 2013. McDougall does a great job of using the physics of time, gravity, and Einstein’s theory of relativity to make spacetime soup.

A self-professed word nerd, I picked up a pen in elementary school and haven’t stopped writing. Though my first love is poetry, my publications also include flash fiction, short story, book reviews, articles for newspapers, and academic essay. My work has been featured on the Massachusetts Poetry Festival site and on the radio in Massachusetts and Vermont. I currently serve as a co-Managing Editor for Ibbetson Street magazine and have had the privilege of offering edit for two phenomenal novels. I keep my trusty set of sonic screwdrivers by my bedside and look to the stars each night, waiting for that madman in a blue box. He’ll be here soon, right?
