How will we know that there is a genuine period of self-suspension though, if we don't know that time is passing where you are ?

Could there be any greater conceit, than for someone to believe that the universe has to be simple enough for them to be able to understand it ?

Just as Newtonian motion is still used to describe the supports required to build a bridge. Even though Relativity would be more precise... it would be irrelevantly-more-precise (more work, for no gain). If Newtonian motion tells us the bridge needs to have supports 5 feet wide, and Relativity tells us the bridge needs to have supports 4.999999999999 feet wide... it doesn't matter which theory we use because they both give the same, exact answer for the question we're looking for (5'1/16"? 5'0"? 4'15/16"? - both tell use to use a support that is 5'0".)
When the exactness-we-need is verified by all observations, it doesn't matter if there's something else we're missing or don't fully understand. We know we need that 5'0" support. We know how far away distant stars are. We know these things.
Try to stop patting your science on the back long enough to admit you do not know here.
We know the distance to stars as well as we know how thick a support beam for a bridge must be.
We may not know how thick a support beam must be to some-irrelevant-level-of-precision (say... 0.00000000001 inches). But such a thing isn't necessary to know it needs to be 5'0".
We may not know how far away distant stars are to some-irrelevant-level-of-precision (say... a few miles). But such a thing isn't necessary to know they are billions upon trillions of miles away.
When you say "you do not know here" it is not enough information.
There are many, many things we don't know, in many places. What we need to identify is if the level-of-precision you're talking about is required in order to know the stars are far away from us.
If you could explain what, specifically, it is you think we "don't know" then we can look to see if it's relevant or not.

orbital speed and the velocity of disappearance
I was talking about the size of the objects going round something else, not the orbit patterns.
So you admit that your use of a poor (superseded) model of an atom was totally bogus for what we see in solar system planets, asteroids, comets and other "near space" objects.
Forbidden - Stack Exchange
.....we see that objects can be quite small, and still have orbits due to gravity. ...
Indeed, relativity (space-time) explains the observations very well, with repeatability and high confidence. Meanwhile you still have not provided a different explanation than the current space-time relativity explanation for what we observe.
Then there is the question of what gravity may be like if time and space are different! Then there is the question of what atomic orbits may be like if fundamental forces start to be different...etc. The deeper we look at the issue the more we see you don't know.
What if invisible undetectable unicorns are not pink?
And as long as our current understanding of space-time relativity explains the observations we make there will continue to be no rational reason or cause to fantasize about other possibilities.
The deeper we've looked the more advanced our understanding has become, and this is a process that will continue. That we don't know all the fine details does not invalidate our current understanding.
(Message 583)
As I understand it God defined a period of light as a day. He defined a dark period as a night. He further defined the evening of a light period and the morning following a dark period as a day. He left the rest up to mankind to figure out.
Enjoy
Well, there was the bits about new moons, and years too. If Adam lived 930 years or so, then one assumes a year was a thing that they were familiar with.
Would you not agree that their concept of "day" varies with latitude, and that at the north or south pole there would be massive contradictory anomalies between observed "days" there compared to observations at the equator? We can also throw in seasons, and note that the observations on when it is "summer" would also depend on latitude, with southern hemisphere observations being opposite to northern hemisphere observations?
If so, would you not agree with me that those "measurements" were rather crude approximations back then. Years, seasons, months and days. Certainly too crude to make scientific observations in the detail we can do today.
So our understanding of time is built on older systems with increasing accuracy\precision over time, with systems that explain observed anomalies (like day length), until we get to our current understanding (relativity, space-time). This is an ongoing process, so if you know of any aberrant observations, any anomalies, let us know. If you have a better explanation that covers these anomalies let us know. We await your scientific breakthrough concept.

Sounds more like conflict avoidance behavior, as is your refusal to offer any substantiation for your fantasy argument.
Meanwhile science will continue to use relativity space-time to explain the current observations.
Admin Message 588 Time Suspended 4 Weeks
For indicating he wouldn't respect feedback from moderators.
Poke the dragon enough times it will wake up. Note that your suspension is not because you are a creationist, it is because you don't follow the simple guidelines of the forum. Note that during this debate two (2) people were also suspended that were not creationists. That shows a lack of bias.
... Fraudulent biased mods ...
And yet, curiously, you have not demonstrated that to be the case.

Re: A bridge to the stars
To know distances in the universe you need to have time exist there as it does here. Can you demonstrate that it does exist there and exist the same as here?

The decay curve for cobalt was observed to match the curve we see here on earth.

Re: A bridge to the stars
So? Why wouldn't it? Let's say the distances were vastly different than what we think they are, based on the calculations that depend on time existing as we know it here. So let's just use 9 light years instead of 70,000. That would affect a lot of the math.
Since time is involved in a light curve we might want to check our facts again..
If the size and distances are very wrong, assumptions such as expansion velocity, (how the distance approx proportional to center of sn etc). They also adjust the math for many things like thermal velocity, escape probability of protons...time since core collapse..dipole allowed transitions..forbidden transitions...temperature...mass...distance to the SN...etc etc to name a few.

Nope. Assumptions don't affect math at all. We KNOW the distance from the star to the ring (see below). We KNOW the angle that the star and the ring subtend by direct measurement.
The law of sines gives us the distance, no assumptions made. Simple high school math.
That distance also confirms the speed of light has been consistent from there to here.
Since time is involved in a light curve we might want to check our facts again..
Already done, many times over.
If the size and distances are very wrong ...
They aren't. See above.
... assumptions such as expansion velocity, (how the distance approx proportional to center of sn etc). ...
... are irrelevant to the calculation.
... They also adjust the math for many things like thermal velocity, escape probability of protons...time since core collapse..dipole allowed transitions..forbidden transitions...temperature...mass...distance to the SN...etc etc to name a few.
Also irrelevant.
If you are interested we can play a little game that demonstrates why we KNOW the distance from the star to the ring.
We don't debate by links, are you prepared to discuss the details here?
I note that it doesn't have anything to do with the decay curves for 56 Co .... it talks about the temperature curves, and compares them to a model they developed.
Enjoy

No, you don't know distances at all. You see, you CANNOT grab a huge swath of TIME and space HERE in the earth solar system (base line) and then try to pretend it is a distance only measure! Ha.

Okay, ... I like to call the game star checkers:
It's a board game with two pieces, their movement is determined by the throw of a di, both move the amount shown on the di.
One takes a path from the star to the earth, the other takes a detour to the ring and then to the earth
Click on the image to enlarge it.
The ring is shown highly eccentric to show that we use the major axis as the diameter of the ring, the eccentricity is caused by the ring tilting away from a perfectly perpendicular plane to our line of sight. We KNOW the ring is actually circular because the whole ring lit up at the same time.
Each of the three lines is composed of dots with the exact same spacing from dot to dot, they are distance increments.
We start with both playing pieces at the star and throw the di, then move both pieces the amount of dots shown on the di, which varies from 1 to 6 in a random pattern.
Player piece A moves along the line from the star (lower left) to the earth (at the right)
Player piece B moves along the lines from the star to the ring (upper left) and then from the ring to the earth without stopping at the ring.
When player piece A reaches the earth we are in the modern (1987) era with consistent speed of light and travel distances ...
so we keep repeating the last distance thrown on the di until player piece B reaches the earth.
The difference in time between player piece A reaching the earth and player piece B reaching the earth is then multiplied by the modern (1987) era speed of light both are experiencing gives us an accurate measure of the distance from the star to the ring.
This time is known. This calculation of the distance between the star and the ring is thus a known fact.
Thank you for playing.

Sadly, ignorance is not an argument, it is just ignorance.
One example of a base line for parallax measurement is the distance earth moves in six months. That is a huge distance. It involves a big piece of spacetime. If you admit time exists here, then time exists with the space. Not sure what you are missing here.

The speed of anything around the SN is not known unless the distance to the SN is known. To get that distance you cannot assume that a slice of time and space in the solar system is equal to a slice of time and space where the stars are!
For your checker game, we know that exists IN our space and time so we CAN determine size and distances.
