TED-Ed: Does Time Exist? - Andrew Zimmerman Jones

The video explores the concept of time, from its measurement using natural cycles to Einstein's theory of relativity, which introduced the idea of space-time. It discusses the arrow of time, governed by entropy, and the challenges of unifying general relativity and quantum physics. The video also considers whether time is an emergent property, similar to how a movie creates the illusion of movement.

What are the two main ways humans have historically measured time?
