Does the universe age faster than earth?

533 views

If I understand it correctly, we measure time by how fast light passes, or something similar to that. Now if the universe expands faster than the speed of light, would that mean that the universe ages faster than earth, or maybe slower than earth? Maybe this doesn’t make sense but I have a gut feeling that there’s something to it…

No, time is defined based on oscillations of an atom in some type of crystal. So a second is N amount of oscillations of that atom.
