I was thinking, if time passage varies with speed would the speed of atoms random movement (temperature) affect time? For example, if the universe is expanding, as some predict, it will eventually reach a state where everything will reach very near to absolute zero, or maybe absolute zero. If it did reach absolute zero what would happen to time? would it equal infinity? Then, i thought well about 10^-43 seconds after the big bang, when Planck temperature (1.416785(71)×10^32 K), supposedly occured. Would time be not stopped? Or going in negative time?

You might want to go back and try expressing your ideas a little more clearly, and seeing if you can fill in some of the shaky steps in the reasoning. This question doesn't really seem me to be in a form that anyone could really help you with.
 
The rate of the passage of time is not a function of temperature. There are some physical processes who'se rates are temperature dependent, but not all are and there is no consistent pattern among them. Some examples:

1. Many chemical reactions slow down as temperature decreases.
2. Many fluids become more viscous and flow slower as temperature decreases.
3. A properly designed pendulum clock will not run any slower as temperature decreases.
4. A device with a spring mechanism for motion may run faster as temperature decreases (the spring will contract and get tighter, increasing the force).
5. And, of course, the speed of light is not temperature dependent.
 
Thread 'Can this experiment break Lorentz symmetry?'
1. The Big Idea: According to Einstein’s relativity, all motion is relative. You can’t tell if you’re moving at a constant velocity without looking outside. But what if there is a universal “rest frame” (like the old idea of the “ether”)? This experiment tries to find out by looking for tiny, directional differences in how objects move inside a sealed box. 2. How It Works: The Two-Stage Process Imagine a perfectly isolated spacecraft (our lab) moving through space at some unknown speed V...
Insights auto threads is broken atm, so I'm manually creating these for new Insight articles.

Does the speed of light change in a gravitational field depending on whether the direction of travel is parallel to the field, or perpendicular to the field? And is it the same in both directions at each orientation? This question could be answered experimentally to some degree of accuracy. Experiment design: Place two identical clocks A and B on the circumference of a wheel at opposite ends of the diameter of length L. The wheel is positioned upright, i.e., perpendicular to the ground...
