No idiot.....I am telling you that you can't compare an A second directly with a B second. Why? Because they each represents a different amount of time (different duration). When you insisted that you can compare them directly.....you are saying that a second is a universal interval of time...it is not.

Excellent point. What we need are more engineers to taka loot at the math 
in IRT and Divergent Matter. I said explicitly "engineers" and not half-
engineers. I'm tired of these wannabes not even half-engineers trying to 
make sense where is obvious they never will. Be that inside Relativity, 
DIvergent Matter or IRT, in this order.

Simultaneity got nothing to do with it. Clocks in relative motion accumulate clock seconds at different rates. The reason is that a clock second in each frame reepresents a different amount of absolute time.

Again the twins paradox.

If one of the Twins is physically Mechanically Accelerated with enough force to Slow the twin's Clock in relation to the Slower Moving twin, the Accelerated Twin will be Physically VIOLENTLY HEATED CAUSING RAPID AGING the Twin.
the Twin paradox is a MOOT POINT due to THERMAL DAMAGE to the Accelerated twin.

The "Variation to the impedance of the vacuum" Due to mechanical acceleration or Gravitational acceleration causes the time Dilation effect one of the Twins.

The Vacuum impedance is ALWAYS RE-BALANCING ITSELF so the Clock will automatically fall out of Any preparatory clock synchronization, Invalidating the Gedanken ...............
no More twins Paradoxes .....!!!!!! Ahhhhhh !!!!!!!!!!!

Usually we measure time locally.

The one who measures time is called 'observer'. That is usually a human 
being, (since animals cannot use a clock).

We humans live on the surface of planet Earth and can use clocks. These 
clocks operate around the globe in (somehow) similar manner.

What we in fact do not know is, whether or not they would work similar 
in any other place of the universe.

This is so, because humans have not been too far away from the surface 
of our home-planet (until now).

But I would think, the universe itself has other ideas about time then 
we have. Also SRT and GR assume, that time is not a universal constant 
phenomenon, but observer dependent.

We have - for example - the Pioneer anomaly or the experiments at the 
Harvard towers, that suggest, that time flows at other pace in other 
locations.

Such 'other locations' with a different pace and direction of time I 
call 'time domain' and the surface of the Earth is apparently one.

But you could imagine a 'world behind the mirror' where time flows into 
the opposite direction. In the view of such a world our future is their 
past.

Inhabitants of such a world would certainly have an entirely different 
assumption about the age of the universe.

Well, yes.

But the OP asked a question. This was: is the age of the universe 
observer independent?

'Age' means number time-intervals (like: years) since 'birth'.

The 'length' of such intervals  is now in question, since different 
length of - say- a year would give a different number of counts from 
such an event.

So is the length of the year always the same (for all possible observers)?

I would say: no, it's not.

We don't even know, if any observer would encounter the same order of 
events. So we could assume a world, where time runs kind of backwards 
(in our - external - view).

This would also exclude, to assign a certain age to the universe, since 
what is birth to us is death to 'them'.

So the correct answer to the question of the OP would be: no.

No, observers don't encounter the same order of events. Read the history,
You'll know, that order of event can mix. Still, historicians are DOING 
THEIR
BEST to clear it, because disorder in events between observers is amongst
the last things a sane person would like.

Anyway, "ordering events" is an idea. I'm afraid ideas can't exist without
a brain, and even more - language. That leads me to a conclusion, that
the only order of events we can meet, is the one we created/will  create.
It's just - if we do it a stupid way,  we'll get a sorry mess to deal with.

The order of event is apparent and ascribed by the observer.

This is caused by the speed of light. Since light is fast in comparison 
to human measures, but slow in respect to the distances in the universe, 
we must keep in mind, that what we see at the same time did not happen 
simultaneous.

But if we assume, that simultaneousness is 'relative' we also mean, the 
order of events is 'relative'.

Since a certain timeline means, that the events along such an axis of 
time happen in the supposed order. This is mainly governed by the second 
law of thermodynamics, which claims, that entropy must increase.


But apparently the universe has not been cancelled out and and has not 
yet died from increasing entropy.

So there must be a process acting, that prevents the universe from 
getting filled with somehow even temperatures and mean distribution of 
matter.

I assume, there would be different timelines, along which the disorder 
in one universe is 'recycled' in another, where time flows in the 
opposite direction.

So, a black hole in one direction is actually a white hole with time 
reversed. And 'the' big-bang is actually the 'birth' of OUR universe and 
we measure time as OUR (local) time from that 'birth'.

The age of this universe is then depending on us (humans) as observers 
here on planet Earth, since we are in fact in the centre of this 
'universe', since actually the term 'universe' is ascribed to what we 
see in the sky. And this is a picture caused by the delay due to the 
limited speed of light.

And all other observers do similar, but see a different 'universe' (and 
also ascribe a different age to it).

Mathematic has proven, that we can assume a lot of

But it has never proven, that whatever we assume is

Suppose age of the Universe is t0. We do a common twins
case, after travel clocks indicate t0+t1, t0+t2.
What is the age of the Universe now?

t0+t1 and t0+t2 will give different answers. As this is obvious I assume you are not happy with two twins aging at different rates. Mr Muon ages much slower when falling to earth at .99 c than when at rest. That one is known to be true as they tested in the 1950s. There in is empirical evidence that supports twins aging at different rates. The age of the universe would depend on which twin you asked t0+t1 or t0=t2. At the end of the day it is relative to the observer. It should be noted that as space expands you can effectively move faster than light but not within that expanding space. This is how BB gets away with expansion faster than light.

Fine.
Now, suppose the travelling twins, with his
point of view "age of the universe is t0+t2", 
after returning marry  a stationary woman 
with a point of view "t0+t1". What is the 
point of view of their child?
What do mr Muon and Your brilliant experimens
say?

BTW, are You sure, that You weren't travelling
since 9000 000 000 B.c to 1 000 000 000 B.C?
Without any mass, You could even reach c...
So, maybe from Your point of view the Universe 
is 8000 000 000 younger, than from mine?
Mr Muon doesn't say "no"... Common sense does,
but it's just a set of prejudices, isn't it?

If we look at the world, we find places like the Earth. There are also 
all sorts of other objects visible in the sky at night.

So we actually see an increase of order and not the creation of some 
sort of average foggy 'soup'.

This is astonishing, since that would bring the second law of 
thermodynamics into question, which states, that entropy must increase.

But on large scale the universe does (apparently) not follow this rule.

How did that happen?

This is an important question, since its solution  would allow a more 
profound understanding about natural phenomena.

My own assumption is, that we have actually different timelines, to 
which of each is associated an entire universe. Such a 'universe' could 
be 'born' in a big bang and kind of 'die' in a 'big crunch'.

This gives a large circle, that we could 'mirror' and continue to 
another circle. This would than look like '8'.

Unfortunately, this assumption is samely
worthless in GPS, as it is in the cosmology.
G in GPS means "global". Not "local". 
Cosmology is even more "global".
Your concept of local timelines won't work.
Simple?

Why?

It's a question of definition of the term 'time'.

If we would follow Einstein, then time is what a clock measures.

A clock is a device and devices are mainly local.

In other words: there is something, that clocks measure and that we call 
'time'.

This is obviously a local phenomenon, since these devices are localised 
machines.

How time behaves on larger scales we simply don't know, since we don't 
have an 'outside view' (upon the universe).

Since 'all inertial observers are of equal rights', we should assume, 
that all observers measure proper time, thou along different timelines.

Because it's local, and cosmology and GPS
are global.

No matter, how You will define "time", GPS requires
synchronized clocks to work, and won't work
with clocks unsynchronized.
Of course, after redefining "time", You can also 
redefine "work" to "prove", that Your "time" "works".

Take a look at GPS. No, in the real world these 
devices are not localised machines.

GPS is large enough. Time, understood as "what clocks
indicate" is global and matching t'=t equation, with
the precision of acceptable error.

1)there are no inertial observers in the real
world
2)there are no "equal rights for everybody"
in the real world.

HUGE PUN, which destroys your argument.

The "G" in "GPS" does indeed stand for "global", but in that context it means 
"in the vicinity of earth".

Whenever physicists discuss the local vs global distinction, global means 
"throughout the entire manifold", or "throughout the entire universe" (depending 
on context). The GPS is most definitely NOT "global" in that sense. But 
cosmology is.

When you don't know what the words you use actually mean, you are doomed to 
writing AND THINKING nonsense.

But they are ALL near earth. As I said above.

	And actually, each individual device is VERY local. But
	the system they implement is NOT. (I.e. the GPS is
	not local in any meaningful sense, but it is global
	ONLY the the RESTRICTED sense described above.)

This is simply not true. If one put standard clocks into the GPS satellites then 
the system would not work. For them, t' != t, and the errors due to ignoring 
that difference would be completely unacceptable. The designers were COMPELLED 
to modify the "clocks" in the satellites in order to make the system work and 
meet its specifications (the compulsion comes from the world we inhabit, not 
from any model or theory of physics -- these permit them to deal with it, however).

	Some people around here with no experience whatsoever in
	engineering large and complex systems claim that a satnav
	system would work with unmodified clocks. While at the level
	to which they think about it this might be imagined to work,
	whenever REAL systems designers look at the engineering
	problems of a REAL system, they come back to modifying the
	satellite "clocks", for the same reasons that the GPS did.
	The Galileo system did PRECISELY this -- they initially
	planned to use standard (unmodified) satellite clocks, but
	the final design uses modified "clocks" (modified in
	precisely the same way as GPS satellite clocks, using GR).

But physics is a QUANTITATIVE science. One does not need "exactly inertial 
observers" as you imagine, one only needs observers for whom their 
non-inertialness is negligible (i.e. induces errors smaller than their 
measurement resolution).

In practice, this applies to most measurements on earth (e.g. essentially any 
experiment performed inside a volume < 300 meters cubed).

You confuse physics with politics. And you also confuse physics with a 
poorly-worded claim by someone who does not understand the real issues.

Imagination.

"Global in the vincinity of earth" - is still not "local".
And, as we all can see, GPS is global enough for
your brilliant concept of "local time" to be useless.

Maybe it is "VERY local", but it is global enough for
your brilliant concept of "local time" to be useless.
If your local concept is useless even in "VERY local"
system... Well, too bad for it.

Right. GPS, though "VERY local", is global enough for
your brilliant concept of "local time" to be useless.

No. Physics is exactly this: a poorly  worded claim by someone who
does not understand the real issues. At least, modern physics.

And what about your "class"? Are children of our travelling twins
in it, or not?
