"Arrow of Time:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Me: If we represent a spherical universe as a circle and its radius as time (increasing) then if we are positioned at a point on the circle (circumference) the time direction is opposite (backwards relatively) on the opposite side of the circle (universe). This means that wherever you might move in space antimatter is always located in the opposite universal hemisphere but if you were there it would be recognised as normal matter. It's relative depending on the time direction.
This has interesting possibilities if we apply expansion of space - not to the whole universe - but to space in a quantum sense:
"Arrow of Time:
- Despite T-symmetry, our universe exhibits an “arrow of time.” This means that certain processes naturally occur in one direction (e.g., eggs breaking, ice melting), even though their underlying laws are time-reversible.
- The arrow of time is related to the concept of entropy, which tends to increase in closed systems.

This has interesting possibilities if we apply expansion of space - not to the whole universe - but to space in a quantum sense:
- It may be processed at a quantum level
- Space expansion quanta may be spherical (very probable)
- If so then spatial increase would have both negative and positive time directions depending on the observer's position
- Virtual particles could be like Schrodinger’s Cat in quantum mechanics.
