Yes, well, that's what my question is about. What is the speed of time if you are still (putting relative issues aside if one can). At lightspeed time, for other observers, stops. So at no speed, what happens. We are moving, so some of our time velocity is translated into motion, how much, and what happens if we were to slow down. Is Earth for example moving faster along the time axis than somewhere else? Does this question even make sense? You can tell I am making this up as I go along.
