On human scales, the time dimension is much "bigger" than the space dimensions...
This is really interesting, and it made me wonder how to convert between space and time. I mean, one meter up is equivalent in magnitude to one meter forward, is equivalent to one meter to the right. Is _c_ the conversion between space and time? In other words, is 300 million meters equivalent in magnitude to one second of time?
It is bigger only because you travel slowly in the spacial dimensions. You always travel thorugh spacetime with a constant speed (the speed of light). What happens is that you're usually going with 460 m/s (as Earth revolves around the Sun) and this is not really comparable to your `t` speed in the x/y/z/t coordinate system. So when you are still your speed is something like 230/230/0/299.791.998.
