The Slices of Time

"The Slices of Time" is a concept in physics that suggests time can be viewed as a series of distinct, sequential moments or “slices,” similar to frames in a film. Each slice represents a specific point in time, and together they form the continuous flow of our experience. This perspective helps in understanding how events are ordered and how the universe evolves. Rather than time being a smooth, forever flowing thing, it's considered as a sequence of individual segments, which is useful in fields like relativity and quantum mechanics to explain complex phenomena about how time behaves in different contexts.
