Time Dilation and Space Travel
35:52 - 43:09 (07:17)
Time in outer space can slow down or speed up depending on how fast you are moving, contrary to the common belief that time beats at the same rate everywhere.

Einstein's mathematical work on black holes led to the concept of wormholes.
35:52 - 37:03 (01:10)
Summary
Einstein's mathematical work on black holes led to the concept of wormholes. Wormholes are thought to be the connection between white holes and black holes, possibly providing a passageway to another universe, a distant point in the same universe or the past, and even making time travel a possibility for physicists to study.

Time beats slower in outer space than on Earth due to changes in the speed of the rocket ship.
37:03 - 40:52 (03:49)
Summary
Time beats slower in outer space than on Earth due to changes in the speed of the rocket ship. This means one hour in outer space could be different from one hour on Earth, as the "river of time" can have whirlpools that fork into different streams.

The idea of consciousness is explored through the lens of parallel universes, where a person could potentially change the course of history in one universe while remaining unchanged in another.

Summary
The idea of consciousness is explored through the lens of parallel universes, where a person could potentially change the course of history in one universe while remaining unchanged in another. The possibility of multiple universes and altered histories raises interesting questions about the nature of consciousness itself.
