<p>A lot of interesting points and yes we are getting bogged down. Just to reset back to the original line of thinking I think most people agreed that if c = 1m/s then all of our measurements of time and space would also change such that we continue to percieve c = 300000 m/s because what is a meter and what is a second would also change. As the universe expands or contracts our laws of physics would hold true and we would perceive c to be constant even though relative to some outside point of view things look like they are changing ( although size, time and mass etc only have meaning within our universe). So to us that change is irrelevant and perhaps impossible to prove. I think this does however lead to the conclusion that all energy and matter&nbsp;IS spacetime and spacetime&nbsp;IS energy and matter. What I mean is if some outside observer measured the size of the universe as say 1 meter across and saw the earth as a little speck of dust and then expanded the universe to a few trillion miles and looked at the earth again, the earth would have to be proportionally bigger otherwise all kinds of local laws of physics would be broken. But again the people of earth would be oblivious to the change.</p><p>Where we go from there is another story. I think Dr. Rocket is right that ratios of time and space perhaps do not make sense because time is wrapped up into space. The time that is wrapped up in space also shouldn't be confused with our clocks which as we know tick in relativistic ways.</p>

(Like why06 I keep second guesing what I'm saying). I think what I'm saying is that the size of the universe, to us, is irrelevant. c will always be the same because our units of measure (in this case meter and second) would scale appropriately in an expanded or contracted universe. So we would be none the wiser and would never be able to tell any difference unless we were able to somehow step out side of the univerwse and observe a change. If we were somehow able to take a meter stick back in time a billion years and somehow manage to keep its length constant (relative to today) we might say "hey a meter is not as long as it is a billion years in the future". If only dimensional sizes like meters changed then everything would be different. Thankfully we would find that everything else (seconds, kg, forces of gravity, ... ) scaled appropriately and all our trusted equations still worked and c had the same value. Since we measure force sometimes in kgm/s2 then mass, distance and time would all have to change so that energy is conserved and again of course we would be oblivious to that change. By this logic the universe could be oscillating at break neck speed and we would not know and in fact it wouldn't make a darn bit of difference to us.</p><p>So, to a certain extent, who cares, this whole little thought experiment proves nothing other than the laws of physics don't change which onemug said a long time ago. But it does lead me to believe that we don't live IN spacetime, we ARE spacetime. If spacetime expands then so do we, but we just don't know it. This then somehow leads to decelerated time, gravity and inertia and the implosion of my brain.</p>

But could the expansion of the universe be described as a change in c with the universe staying the same size and everything in it shrinking due to Lorentz transformations?&nbsp; &nbsp;

Its pointless to define time with a unit of time itself. Its like defining space in terms of meters and feet. Its means nothing. If you say t = infinity what does that mean. How will it matter if time will continue to tick along at the same pace from my reference point. Even if c did equal 0 I would still percieve it at 300,000 km/s . So in my universe c could equal zero from an outside perspective, it would mean nothing. time would continue to tick on at the same pace. However there would not be enough time for me to go to a galaxy outside of say "the expansion limit" So space would keep accelerating and expanding.</p><p>We dont have a ratio for time:<strong> t=?/? </strong></p><p>All I know is that from an outside perspective time must continue to move at the same pace.

Since everything is relative from our perspective the only real variable that can be translated across different universes mathematically is "c" itself and that the accelerating expansion of space is infact the decrease of speed "c". Now if c equaled c into other universes and since c is a measurement of space over time then:</p><p><strong>c = c</strong>&nbsp; Then&nbsp; <strong>s/t = s/t</strong> Therefore if the times are differrent space will compensate to for the variations in time.
