Physicists created a tiny universe and watched time emerge without a clock
Scientists have created a miniature universe in the laboratory that could help answer one of the biggest mysteries in physics: What is time, and where does it come from?

Remarkably, the experiment showed that time could emerge from changes happening inside the system, without relying on an external clock.
