Interstellar Civilizations and Time
As we pioneer our way out from Earth to other planets and eventual the stars, our concept of time will change in more ways than just different calendars. We'll explore how interstellar civilizations might cope with everything from relativity to life extension and how century long voyages and time lags of communication over millions of worlds might be managed.
