Just like two objects can't touch one another, time is also infinitely small, there will always be a smaller increment of time. We can only try to get more accurate with our readings. 

[Remi 1,309]

There is a time that has been recorded and proven to be the smallest amount of time possible. I've gotten you guys this time.

THE SHORTEST AMOUNT OF TIME POSSIBLE IS THE TIME IT TOOK FOR YOUR CRUSH TO REJECT YOU AFTER YOU CONFESSED TO HER

You'd be suprised.

Nah, good joke though!

Actually I'm right, because that number can just be split in half, the number you are thinking of is just the smallest amount of time we can record.  

[~StatesTheOblivious~ 1,795]

Planck's time is about 3.3 x 10^-44 sec.

[Remi 1,309]

Planck's time is about 3.3 x 10^-44 sec.

And States gets it again.

 

[Princess Periwinkle 3,775]

Nope. Just because it hasn't been recorded doesn't mean it doesn't exist. You can always have smaller amounts of time.

Planck time

 

[The Swedish Brony 153]

100 ATTOSECONDS!

FUCKING ANSWER NINJAS EVERYWHERE! xD

Ooops, I think I just found the opposite xI

aw damn i was to late SBRAIN WHY CANT YOU REMEMBER THINGS FASTER ???!!!

The problem with Planck's time is the same as the problem with Planck's length. Just because we silly humans can't comprehend it doesn't mean it isn't there. Time and length were created by humans, who did not create the universe.

 

Just thought I'd add that.

What is the shortest amount of time possible?

 

The half in "time -and-a-half".

 

[~StatesTheOblivious~ 1,795]

Center of the universe...

 

impossible to answer. Since we can't say wherre it edges are since they "move" away at the speed of light, it is impossible to say where the center of this expanding room is exactly. And then there is this problem with theories of multiple big bangs and:

 

If it's infinite, how could there be a center at all?

[Soundgarden 2,758]

The center of the universe is everywhere, because everything in the universe is expanding at the exact same rate. Say if you tried to discover where everything in the universe moved away from (the center), you would discover that everything is expanding from the very place you're standing at.

 

So technically, there's no center, but at the same time, it's everywhere. It makes my head spin

I think i'm sucky at these due to being kinda straight forward with my thinking generally, but i'll try anyways..

 

 

So what is the center of the universe? Well the center of the universe is the mid point exactly from the edges of the universe. Its an equal distance away from each side of the universe. 

 

So if the universe is 200 by 200 then the center is 100 away from the left side and 100 from the right, aswell as 100 from the northern corner and 100 from the southern.

 

... yeah i'm probably totally wrong xD.

 

Oh well I tried.

 

Its also physically impossible for the center to remain for any length of time, as the universe constantly expands. But assuming you could freeze time I think my explanation would be the best i can give .

[Remi 1,309]

Well, another record. Great job!

[~Squishy Skies~ 756]

Since the universe is expanding infinitely in every single direction possible, technically, everywhere is the center of the universe. You could choose any random coordinate, and from that perspective, it would be the center of the universe.

[Dis is not a troll 27]

there is no center of the universe,but you can decide were it is,I think that we are the center of the universe,not just cuz of selfish reasons,but because of the WHOLE universe spins AROUND us... it spins around our little planet,so I mean that our small little planet is the center of the universe

Imagine a colour which is not in the spectrum.

 

[Dis is not a troll 27]

grey black and white if you talk about rainbow that is

Brown?

>infra-red

[Misty Rose 3,216]

Not in the spectrum? Hmm maybe Pink. I mean you only see it in sunsets. Just guessing, but I'll probably post something else later.

[Zygen 6,066]

A color not in the spectrum? Thats physically impossible, any color outside of the spectrum couldn't be seen by your eyes anyways. Much less imagined.

 

So yeah, i don't see how this is possible o-o.

 

Or maybe i just don't know anything about this, who knows frankly xD.
