I was staring at my calculus book when this came to me, so apologies if its a little murky.
I've been thinking about Hubble time and noticing something odd, that my astronomy professor really couldn't (or wouldn't) answer.
t(u)= 1/H x 10e12 years
which didn't quite work because if the observations of the expansion of the universe indicated acceleration, then the age of the universe would be going down, not up, and eventually the timeline of humanity would exceed the age of the universe (which among other things would be really wierd). When I thought About it some more, this only seemed to make sense if time were moving backwards. Instead of cause -> effect, it would be effect -> cause, while our perceptions would be mnemonic. As crazy as this sounds, it made sense, at least on paper. Then I thought some more on the subject a year later (the present), and concluded there was a problem. While the universe may be expanding and accelerating so, in reverse it would be contracting and decelerating. This seemed to work, until I thought about the big bang, and then realized that such a "bang" would have enormous rates of acceleration.
This led me to believe there may be a pattern to the motion of time in relation to space, and the first thing I thought of that resembled it was the motion of galactic material into and out of a blazar or other galactic black hole.
I was then reminded of Hannes Alfven's Plasma cosmology, and the theories of galactic plasma EM fields paralleling the Earth's magnetosphere. If the lines of electromagnetism are compared with a toroid, with velocities going toward the axis accelerating, and lines exiting the axis decelerating, then it works.
For a quick reminder, here's a random image.
