💨 Abstract

The article discusses Lisa Maynard-Atem's experience of time passing quickly in 2025, sparking a conversation about why time feels accelerated. Scientifically, Earth's rotation is speeding up, making days shorter, due to factors like the Earth's gravitational interaction with the Moon. Psychologically, feelings of time acceleration are influenced by cognitive processes and how the brain perceives and processes novel events.
