Ignore the words time crystal for a second. It’s almost misleading to laymen.
Imagine a clock that’s ticking with a dead battery, but it somehow is still ticking in repeating patterns.
You realize, you cannot take any energy out of the watch’s battery. As a dead battery, the watch simply still ticks.
A time crystal is like that. It’s a tiny little structure at its lowest energy state, that moves in a repeating pattern at exact intervals.
Idk, maybe you could make a very accurate watch out of one instead of relying on the atomic watches in space?
Not sure how it’s useful but it simply sounds cooler than it is.
Like imagine calling a clock, a space-time machine bc it can tell the time. Just sounds misleading
