Please stop asking questions that have already been answered. For the third time, we have measured the decay rate of 56Ni in SN1987A and it happens at exactly the same rate it does here. Therefore time exists there as here. Yet again, see SN 1987A.
In addition, this 56Ni decay occurred inside a star, at tremendous temperatures and pressures. Yet this did not noticeably affect the decay rate.
This is significant; it provides an answer to YEC claims that radioactive decay rates changed in the past due to environmental factors. If they don't change inside a star, why would they change under the waters of a global flood?
"Science without religion is lame, religion without science is blind." — Albert Einstein
I am very astonished that the scientific picture of the real world around me is very deficient. It gives us a lot of factual information, puts all of our experience in a magnificently consistent order, but it is ghastly silent about all and sundry that is really near to our heart, that really matters to us. It cannot tell us a word about red and blue, bitter and sweet, physical pain and physical delight; it knows nothing of beautiful and ugly, good or bad, God and eternity. Science sometimes pretends to answer questions in these domains, but the answers are very often so silly that we are not inclined to take them seriously. — Erwin Schroedinger
