What I mean is are there things traveling so fast in outer space that we don't exist in their FoR?
Or we haven't even been born yet in their FoR?
Or we haven't even been born yet in their FoR?

goodabouthood said:My birth may have not happened in some FOR correct?
That means anything from that moment on hasn't happened either (in that FOR), correct?
The concept of a Frame of Reference (FoR) is a fundamental principle in physics that refers to the perspective from which an observer perceives and measures an event. It is possible to argue that we do not exist in some FoR because our existence is dependent on our perception and interpretation of events based on our chosen FoR. However, it is also important to note that our existence as conscious beings is not solely dependent on our perception and is a complex combination of biological, psychological, and social factors.
A Frame of Reference is a theoretical construct used in physics to describe the perspective of an observer in relation to an event. It is used to measure quantities such as time, distance, and velocity and is essential for understanding the laws of physics.
It is not possible for us to exist in multiple Frames of Reference simultaneously. Our perception and understanding of events are limited to the FoR from which we are observing. However, it is possible for objects or events to exist in multiple Frames of Reference at the same time.
The theory of relativity, specifically the theory of special relativity, states that the laws of physics should be the same for all observers in uniform motion. This means that our existence in a FoR is relative and can be perceived differently by different observers. Additionally, the theory of general relativity suggests that gravity can also affect our perception of time and space within a FoR.
There are practical implications of existing in different Frames of Reference, particularly in the field of physics. The concept of relativity and different FoRs has led to the development of technologies such as GPS, which requires precise timing and accounting for the differences in time between different FoRs. Additionally, understanding different FoRs is crucial in areas such as astronomy and space travel.
