If an object were located in the very center of all mass in the universe (or perhaps multiverse) would time on that object stop (based on general relativity)?
It would also seem that it would be near the point of the big bang.
I understand what you're saying, but wouldn't matter be left in the center of the ball or did all matter/energy expand away from the center without exception at the same rate of speed? I've been imagining it more as an explosion in the normal sense, where everything would radiate away from the center at differing speeds, but with more stuff (that's the best word I can come up with) closer to the center, lessening at the edge, with accretion taking place throughout. No matter what, it all seems to go against an increasing rate of expansion (unless I imagine it as a drop of oil on the surface of water, and the expansion only takes place in certain areas until it levels).Considering the amount of work you've done answering my questions, thank you for helping put some of the circular thoughts of this 19th century gentleman(?) scientist to rest.
