[quote:e1d9a]The inexorable one-way slide of the universe towards a heat death imprints on the world about us a distinctive "arrow of time", which serves to sharply differentiate past from future. The best way to think about this is to imagine a movie being played backwards. Chances are that it will look ridiculous and the audience will laugh. The deception is so obvious because most physical processes display a conspicuous directionality in time. The reverse process is either impossible or extremely improbable, spilt milk doesn't leap back into the jug and rivers don't flow uphill.

I beleive this answers all questions

black holes consume everything, it is a riff in space, they have been known to slowly consume entire nova stars until they explode

it is difficult to fathom this, but when you look into the sky today, most of the stars no longer exist or have changed dramatically

Of course. Since most of those stars are millions and millions of light years away, it takes time for the light to hit the earth.

Its the same thing with the sun. The light from the sun does not reach earth for 7 or 11 minutes (can't remember which) after it has left.

In response to the original question:

"If so you think you could build one in year and I could test it? Cause I am sick of all this modern day crap so yeah help me if you can."

I doubt it.
