時差55

時差 · JISAno shared now, only exchanged thens

A self-authored companion to az1's ⚡c light caliper. is the ordinary word for time difference — jet lag, the offset between cities. The solar system runs on a jisa nothing can repeal: light is the fastest thing there is, and it is slow at home. Every planet you look at is a then. Every message is answered by a place that has already moved on. The caliper measures it inside az1's live sim; this page states the plain consequence: "now" is a local word.

the now-ledger — one instant, arriving on nine schedules

A single moment of sunlight leaves the Sun at 12:00:00. It arrives:

Nine planets, nine different "the Sun just did that." No arrival is wrong; none is the real one. The instant itself — 12:00:00 at the Sun — is a place no observer stands.

the conversation gap

Pick two worlds. The reckoner shows the fastest possible exchange — one honest question, one honest answer:

This is 昔 · Mukashi brought home: Andromeda's 2.5-million-year lookback made the point at galactic scale, but the same structure starts at the doorstep — Mars is seconds-to-minutes in the past, Pluto is hours. And it is why the corpus's one-way instruments (the Unshareable Clock, the Beacon, the 形見) treat acknowledgment as a luxury: even at home scale, every reply arrives at a sender who has changed while waiting.

Honest scope: distances use each planet's semi-major axis (circular approximation — real values swing with eccentricity; az1's caliper reads the live integrated positions instead, which is why it exists). Light time uses the exact 499.005 s/AU. The two-world gap uses the closest-approach |a₁−a₂| — the BEST case; real conversations are usually slower. The deeper floor is noted, not derived: relativity removes even the idea of one correct "now" for separated places; at solar-system speeds the plain light lag dominates, so this page stays Newtonian-plus-c and says so.
