This draft explores time as an emergent property from photon trajectories in spacetime, implying a new perspective on GR and QFT.
Connecting General Relativity (GR) and Quantum Field Theory (QFT) require a reinterpretation of time. This work explains how space and time cannot be separated, and how time is emergent from different photon trajectories through spacetime and how proper time differs between photons and baryonic matter. This is a draft. Your feedback is welcome and appreciated.
