      Erm no I don’t think so. Time is not something we can really have much of an effect on as scientists.

      According to Einstein, time is relative and it slows down if you move faster. If you moved at the speed of light then time would stop from your point of view, but someone standing still would still think that time is moving.

      Einstein’s theory of relativity is weird!
