time has multiple vectors

downvote me if you will but you were the one claiming dinosaurs are birds



I'm not downvoting anything, just trying to figure out what you are trying to say. Can you give names to the multiple vectors of time?


The scientific consensus is that while there are significantly many dimensions to the time space continuum, time makes is only one of those dimensions. Whether or not it is a strictly unidirectional component may be under some debate, but even in quantum mechanics and hypotheses like string theory, there aren’t multiple vectors to time, as it has only one axis and no start or end (that we know of). A vector necessarily has a start, end, and direction.
