Time is not a thing, time doesn't exist. Similar to how space only exists in relation to matter, time only exists in relation to matter, energy, and life. Time is an a priori construction of the brain to track the progress of phenomenon, just as space is used to plot the location of an object, time is used to measure. Time is used to, say, track the deterioration of an asteroid, or the speed the asteroid is going in relation to space: velocity equals time multiplied by space (V=T/S). Time therefore cannot be accelerated, nor decelerated, nor reversed, nor looped, nor can it be harnessed by any time machine. A cosmic rock could decay faster or slower. The rock could revert back to a previous appearance. The rock could go through the same processes over and over, but time has not change whatsoever, because time is used to measure the rock. The rock might revert to a previous form, but time doesn't care, because everything that is and happens is filtered by our cognition of time to enter the past permanently. Time travel exists as a thought, but it does not exist in reality. To say time is infinite therefore, is not to say that time is a line that has no end, but it's to say that the progression of matter, energy, life, and phenomena respectively will not cease to evolve. Because of the other axioms, all of these things are infinite, meaning they have always been changing and will always continue to do so.
