Time travel
Beloved:
For a planet It depends on its size and spin. The time it takes a planet to revolve on itself determines the time in one day. Then if you devide into 4 sectors and then do that two more times, you get 12 sectors..a hour. You cannot really compare planets based on only one clock, if you do it time is relative.
From another perspective time seems to go by differently at different times in life.
For a 4 yr child a month can seem like forever. It is 1/48 of its present life, a year is 1/4 of their life.. Younger children do not have any concept of time and hour can seem like an awful long time. With a baby, one minute from when they decde they are hungry a minute is like eternity.
If you are fifty yrs old, a year is 1/50th of their life , a month will seem to be getting shorter too as we age, woops there goes another one ;D, for that person 1 month is only 1/600 of their life...so you see the month hasn't changed just the person's perspective....time is relative and as you age, time can fly.

I am not sure what you are talking about , third moon? did you look under the bed?

Moons do not have moons. She has had too many "moons" run into her..look what one big one did, she lopsided now.
The poor thing, she is going to be so full of inpact craters there will be very little of her mantel left. She is going to be pulverized if she stays in saturn with all of that debris.

aqrinc:

The funny thing that someone pointed out to me once about conventional time travel ideas, is that even if you did mangage to make time travel work, if you didn't work out where the earth was in space at that particular time, you would appear somewhere in outer space because the earth doesn't stay in the same place, it moves around the sun.
But no one ever seems to think about that!
