Futurist Thomas Frey: Humans think about the underlying systems we use for keeping time in much the same way that fish think about water. We simply don’t.

12 Laws of the Future
Futurist Thomas Frey: For several decades now I have been contemplating our relationship with the future.
Many of my colleagues think of me as that crazy guy who assigns human attributes to this thing we call the future.

World’s Most Accurate Atomic Clock So Sensitive It Can Detect Changes in Earth’s Gravity
An atomic clock in Berlin. Scientists have developed an ‘optical lattice’ clock so sensitive it can detect changes in Earth’s gravity
Professor Hidetoshi Katori and his team at the University of Tokyo with the help of Professor Victor Flambaum have conceived a state-of-the-art atomic clock, which is actually so sensitive that it can detect changes in Earth’s gravity and will allow scientists to measure time to a whopping 17 digits! Not only that, the ‘optical lattice’ clock is also touted to remarkably improve GPS tracking systems and will be able to detect insignificant height differences to the range of 10cm.
Scientists Find Evidence For ‘Chronesthesia,’ or Mental Time Travel
Is your brain aware of more than the time right now?
Researchers have found evidence for “chronesthesia,” which is the brain’s ability to be aware of the past and future, and to mentally travel in subjective time. They found that activity in different brain regions is related to chronesthetic states when a person thinks about the same content during the past, present, or future…
