Age Definition and 590 Threads

âge (アージュ, Āju) is a division of Avex Pictures as of July 10, 2017, a Japanese developer and publisher of adult video games and visual novels. âge was formerly known as Relic and developed video games for consoles. It gained fame following the release of its 2001 adult visual novel Kimi ga Nozomu Eien. It was founded by Hirohiko Yoshida, Baka Prince Persia, Nanpuureima, Spin Drill, and Carnelian. âge games are published under the brands Âge, Mirage, and Φâge.
In 2011, âge created its own parent company "ixtl" as a rights management company for âge's content, particularly the Muv-Luv franchise. The company was jointly held by CEO Takashi Nakanishi, Nippon Cultural Broadcasting, and Good Smile Company. In 2017, Avex Pictures acquired ixtl (and thus âge), and later changed the company's name to "aNCHOR".

    Gravitational Time Dilation and Age of Astronaut

    Hello Everyone, I am new to this forum. I understood from sources that space-time is like a fabric. The massive bodies bend the space around it, hence the gravity. If time is 4rth dimension, so, the space is bent in time due to mass. that pretty much explains stopping of time in black holes as...

    Gerald Shroeder and the age of the universe

    Hi all. I'm on another forum discussing Gerald Shroeder's assertion that the age of the universe can, from certain reference frames, be said to have been 6 days at the creation of the Milky Way. In other words, that the creation account in Genesis is literally correct. Shroeder makes a...

    Ice Age Modeling: Major Step Forward in Climate Change?

    OK, I'll dive in and start a climate change thread. I'm fascinated by the Nature paper by Abe-Ouchi, et.al., which I already uploaded in post #21 of this thread. If you look at Figure 1, the model does an outstanding job of modeling the last several ice ages. I have been somewhat skeptical of...

    Was the direction of oceanic currents changed during the ice age?

    Yes, curious about that. (No, I'm NOT asking about some short term disturbances when glaciers were melting, but whether with lower temperature and part of continental shelf above water caused the currents to change their direction)

    Age of the Universe: Intuitive Understanding

    I've been doing some Cosmology, but I'm having a really hard time understanding the results for the age of the Universe intuitively. For example I can work out from the FRW equation that in the case of no Cosmological constant and no radiation in a flat matter dominated universe the age is...

    Age of the Universe and time duration

    We all very well know that, Earth has been made 4.5 billion years ago. Suppose, we are to explain the age of the star and we say that it is 27 billion years old. One year is the duration of time taken by the Earth to revolve around the sun once. Before the origin of Earth, how could we explain...

    Does Time Dilation Occur for Both Twins in the Twin Paradox?

    Two twins A and (evil) B. Twin A remains "stationary" while evil B goes at near light speed to-and-fro. Ignoring General Relativity (acceleration/deceleration) evil B experiences time dilation and as result, when they meet up again, B's clock is behind A's clock. Look at it from B's point...

    Does the speed of light change with the age of the universe?

    Is there any reason to think that that the speed of light could vary with time (taking t=0 at Big Bang), ie, could light have been slower or faster billions of years ago? Also, is there any experimental evidence so far that either confirms or denies this? Do we know of any experiment that proves...

    Are Galaxies the Same Age if they are the Same Distance From Us?

    Is age of universe adjusted for gravity?

    The estimated age of the universe is often stated to be about 13.7 billion years. But I've never seen any qualifiers on that age. We know that time passes slower the greater the gravity field you're in. Even the difference in gravity between the Earth's surface and orbit is enough to cause...
