Orthogonal time

[Quangotjokes]

“Backwards, forwards, and sideways. Time's an ocean with currents going all over the place.“

If time flows forward, backwards, and sideways. Does this mean time in the context is perpendicular or orthagonal?

I would think sideways time implies time is an area and not a line so it would be 2 temporal dimensions

Can you elaborate a little more so I can understand it a bit better?

Can you go both forward, back and left, right on 1 D plane?

Oh interesting way of explaining it. We can visit timelines that no longer exist.

 

[FriendOfTheTeaParty]

Yes this is perpendicular

Okay thank you guys for the insights

Backward and forward isn't, but the sideways time is a second, orthogonal, perpendicular time axis

Makes sense
