| Feb 12, 2016 at 22:07 | comment | added | Draco18s no longer trusts SE | A universe with two dimensions of time (ours doesn't have it) would have to have movement across it. The "one second per second" thing, is of course, relative. | |
| Feb 12, 2016 at 22:03 | comment | added | AndyD273 | @Draco18s I guess it kind of depends on if you can cross lines, or just look across them. And if you can cross them, can you alter your "forward" momentum to be other than 1 second per second? OP doesn't actually mention moving, just looking... | |
| Feb 12, 2016 at 21:55 | comment | added | Draco18s no longer trusts SE | I'm not sure that that's how two dimensions of time would work as you would be able to move across that second dimension somewhat at will (your total space-time velocity would have a fixed magnitude, but you could move at different time rates on each of the time axis). | |
