22. Of course you realize that time as we comprehend it started...

...with the big bang. How time works has changed since the big bang started.

I am dangerous, I know enough astro-physics to understand that, but not to explain it properly.

Read "The Elegant Universe" by Brian Greene

...and more importantly, have your son read it. Its written so that the layperson can understand it and its a fantastic introduction to relativity, quantum mechanics, and string theory.

BTW.... what on earth is your son's history teacher doing asking for a writting assignment like that?
