There is also

one more thing

that affects the passage

of time.

That is the

stretching of space itself.

I could use your help, Tyler,

come here.

oh, uh...

Come up here, it'll be fun.

Tyler, go.

How's the chest?

I'm a little dizzy

and nauseous.

Blow this up.

Looks like they finally

found a way to use

some of your

hot air there, Tyler.

Blow it up a little more.

Hold it there,

hold it there.

Now, science tells us that in

the instant of the Big Bang,

everything that ever would be

the universe

and anything in it-

- Including time and space

itself-

- was compressed to a speck

the size of a mustard seed.

Now, as the universe expands,

galaxies form,

so think of the black dots

on the balloon as galaxies

and the balloon itself

as the universe,

and notice as

the universe expands,

the distance between the dots,

the galaxies, it increases.

J.T.:
There's

no more of anything.

No more matter

or space or time.

It's just the distance between

what there is increasing.

Space itself is stretching.

And as space stretches,

so does time.

Just as time is affected

by speed and by gravity,

it is also affected by

the stretching of space.

But the stretching of space

affects time

from one moment to another

rather than just from one place

to another.

And this brings us

back to Genesis

and the quandary of six days

or 16 billion years.

- Can I keep the balloon?

- Sure, Tyler.

Now, in order to understand

these first six days,

we need to identify the frame of

reference in which they unfold.

How, Dad, is the story

of Genesis conveyed to man?

Well, depending on

who you believe,

the first five books of

the Bible, including Genesis,

were given directly to Moses

by God,

or God inspired certain others

to- to write those books.

So the source of the

story of the first six days,

directly or indirectly,

is God.

Yes.

So Genesis is told through

God's perspective,

from his, scientifically

speaking, frame of reference,

Like Peyton Manning, or Blake

in our football game.

Jerry:
Yeah, that's correct.

So just what was God's

frame of reference?

God's frame of reference

when telling the story

has to be somewhere not affected

by local distortions.

Like the speed of gravity.

Yes, and that somewhere has to

be the universe itself,

the total universe,

the cosmos,

not some isolated locality

within it.

So the question is,

how does time unfold

in this cosmic frame

of reference?

How is it recorded?

To understand that,

we must first define what

a clock really is.

Quite simply,

a clock is anything

that repeats itself periodically

and where the rhythm of those

repeating cycles can be used

to note the passage of time.

That's like straight from

the dictionary,

tick, tock, tick,

tock, tick, tock.

A clock is not something

that creates time,

a clock only

records the passage of time.

So the cosmic clock that

God uses to relate

his time of

creation to man is what?

The answer is simply light.

Light is the only constant

in the universe.

It provides a method of

measuring the passage of time

in the cosmos.

Light can be used as

a cosmic clock

to measure

the passage of time

by any change in the wavelength

or cycle or frequency of light.

The distances between the crest

of the light wave.

Ding, that's right.

We'll skip all the math

involved.

I mean, listen,

if you'd like us to,

I'd be happy to go through

the details.

- No, that's fine.

- No, no, no, no.

No, we're good.

Then let's just say that science

has proven this

by measuring the

stretching of the wavelength

of the light from the sun

compared to the wavelength

or frequency of the same light

created on Earth.

The results confirm the

predictions made by Einstein

and by the theory of

time dilation.

In order to compare time today

with time at the Big Bang-

- And the passage of time

between then and now-

- there has to be a source

of light which exists today

that also existed at the time

of the Big Bang.

Marc:
This light source was

found in 1964 by accident

when two astronomers

discovered what's called

cosmic background radiation,

or CBR.

Lin:
This is a residual

radiation left over

from the time of the Big Bang.

J.T.:
It fills all space today

as it did then.

The property of the CBR which

make it the perfect cosmic clock

is the change that has occurred

in the wavelength

of the decaying ash

between the moment when matter

first was formed following

the Big Bang and now.

At that Big Bang moment,

the temperature in that

initial plasma mass

was nearly

11 trillion degrees,

and the frequency of what is now

CBR corresponded.

The original

frequency of the CBR

was some 3 trillion cycles

per second.

As the universe cooled

and expanded, space stretched,

and with it, the wavelength

of the CBR.

Today, that CBR has cooled

to only 2.73 degrees Kelvin

and the wavelength to some three

cycles per second.

The ticking of this

cosmic clock has slowed from

3 trillion cycles per second

to three cycles per second.

The stretching of space and time

as the universe expanded

in turn stretched the distance

between the wave crests

of the CBR.

The passage of time

just after the Big Bang

occurred at a rate a trillion

times faster than it does today.

So God telling the story of

the first six days to Moses,

he was telling it from his

frame of reference.

He told it based

on the passage of time

reflected by the cosmic clock.

Lin:
God related to Moses what

happened on each of

the six days of Genesis

based on the passage of time

as kept by the cosmic clock

as it recorded the passage of

time as it occurred.

There's- There's a simple

formula which can be used to

break the rate of change

in the passage of cosmic time

down into steps.

Lin:
But in doing this,

this rate of change,

the amount of time passing

will be seen from

our local frame of reference.

our perspective, here on Earth

today, in the future.

Yes, we will be

looking back in time,

measuring time by our

clocks today.

our clocks that run

a trillion times slower

than the cosmic clock just after

the Big Bang.

Yeah, exactly!

J.T.:
With every doubling

in the size of the universe

from the instant

of the Big Bang

until the time of Adam,

the stretching of the wavelength

of the CBR

reflects a slowing of the

passage of time by one-half.

Marc:
obviously, each doubling

in the size of the universe

takes longer

than the previous double.

Each doubling expansion has

twice as far to go.

Whatever that means.

Now, we are going to break this

universe expansion

up into six steps.

We are calling

these steps Pots.

It's a term we coined meaning

"Passages of Time. "

Each Pot reflects the passage of

time from the Big Bang to now,

with each of the six doublings

in the size of the universe

and a trillion times stretching

in the size of the universe.

The first of these six Pots,

Looking back and based on

our time today,
