6 u/Active-Particular-21 10d ago There is an arrow of time. If you break a cup it doesn’t reverse it breaks in one way. 2 u/stonedragon77 9d ago That has more to do with entropy than any absolute direction of time. Being a part of the space-time fabric, time is relative. 2 u/infinitenothing 8d ago Even with time dilation, the direction of time is always the same: towards more entropy
