Time Slowed Down in Early Universe, New Study Reveals
TL;DR Summary
Scientists have used quasars as cosmic clocks to observe the early universe running in extreme slow motion, providing further evidence for Einstein's theory of general relativity. By analyzing data from nearly 200 quasars, researchers found that time appeared to flow five times slower when the universe was just over a billion years old. This study confirms the time dilation of distant quasars, validating Einstein's prediction and supporting the idea of an expanding universe.
