If a photon is emitted by an electron inside of a clock on Earth and it travels to a clock four light years away, time stops for the clock on Earth and time jumps forward eight years for the distant clock, also the electron that will capture the photon becomes infinitely large, relative to the photon but the electron that emitted it does not become infinitely small therefore, time is not perfectly symmetrical. R.A.Delmonico
About This Quote

As the light travels to the distant clock, the light is at rest in the distant universe relative to an observer on Earth. The light has no way of knowing it is being sent to a distant Universe. The light appears to be traveling at the speed of light, but that is not what really happens. The light does travel at the speed of light, but that is because there are no photons moving towards the distant clock.

When time stops for the distant clock, it means that all the clocks in both universes are synchronized. So why does this matter? It matters because Albert Einstein suggested that time and space travel at different speeds. He believed that time and space were related by a relationship called relativity. His theory of relativity said that nothing can travel faster than the speed of light and nothing can travel slower than the speed of light.
