I want to ask a basic question. What is time? How are time and space related?

@Genius600,
Time is what clocks measure, and is what keeps everything from happening at once.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time

In physics, spacetime (or space-time, space time, space-time continuum) is any mathematical model that combines space and time into a single continuum.
