The Time Gap

We think of past. We think of future. We think of present. Time is a thing that is flowing ever since we can think of. Recording of time in form of dates started very late. Still time was going on, without someone even noticing that. In quantum mechanics, there is a famous thought experiment named Schrodinger's cat experiment, according to which an observer is always required for an event to occur. Or else the event has equal probability of it being occurred or not being. If you're unable to see a person, then he could be dead, or alive; both cases having equal probability. So the person is in the state of both death and life, for you. This can be applied to the flow of time also. We, the people in present, don't know exactly what happened in the past. We only predict it with evidences and observations. That means we could be totally wrong about it, or partially. But one thing is clear that we aren't fully correct at our predictions of past. So it's both true and untrue, at every moment. And as time passes, the untrustworthiness of predictions of past increases.

This can be seen as we are also uncertain about the far past; future people will be uncertain about their far past, and so on. Though now we have instruments to record moments, but this is scattered. No one is recording everything in bulk. So future people will have the strong evidences of present time, but they would have to relate the evidences themselves. And if a global disaster or calamity occurs, then it's all gone, or most of it.

But time still flows.

Is it flowing the way it used to, or are there any changes with its flow? As we've seen that as an exponentially increasing advancement in human development occurred in the late 19th century, our speed of progress is also increased. Time is going on with the same rate according to our time counting systems. Isn't the rate of change of time increased? I don't know with respect to what. What if there were breaks in between the moments? Like a pause button in a video.

Time might not be flowing smoothly, rather it may have flaws or pauses, randomly or sequentially. We don't know or feel it because it's beyond our senses to account for this disturbance, as time is not a visual quantity, not audible, not feeble, not olfactory, and doesn't have any kind of taste. Also we've no such instrument to measure any alteration in the flow of time. Since nothing is 100 percent perfect on this world, the flow of time can also have some imperfections. Though there are no observations supporting this opinion, but also negations of these opinions aren't there, any?
