  1. A distance of 186,000 miles is equal to one second of time. Distance and time are combined in a single phenomenon within which their properties are invariant. That is why a light second can simultaneously be a measure of distance, and timing. Light-seconds and light-years are actually examples of what are referred to as space-time intervals, which are good analogies of the relationship between space, and time. Einstein stated, nothing can happen until something moves, which is one of the wisest things he ever said. Motion itself is the simultaneous traversing of both distance and time, and it is a cornerstone of his theory of special relativity. to traverse a distance at sub light speed, takes time. and the faster any distance is traversed the less time elapses, if an object is accelerated to light speed, all the motion of that object is occurring in the spacial dimension, so time for that object is meaningless. Alternatively, if all an objects motion is through the temporal dimension, no spacial motion can occur, so that object is at rest. To be continued....
