You are currently traveling 80% the speed of light, The time is now 6:30pm, Tuesday, august 15th. Your current course is forward. Your destination is the same as your starting location......but wait one minute Jonathan, maybe this is just a riddle..Maybe you are in our virtual reality program...it is up to you to find out where you really are and what is really happening, and if anything I have told you is even true. It could very well be possible that we are testing you, and that your only way out is to discover all the right answers. Good bye. Oh and Jonathan? Good Luck."

Well, that would certainly suck!
I assume you're trying to make the point that time is fictitious?

The possibility occurred to me that maybe that whole scenario went right over your head and made absolutely no sense whatsoever.
The points there were to realize, everything the female voice told you was a lie, or more specifically unprovable. There is simply no ability to scientifically formulate those peices of information.
Key parts purposely added were:
-location
-velocity
-time
-direction
-motion
All of which are entirely undeterminable!
So I posed the question, is this reality put forward here a riddle? How can your build your way out of this hell hole, and find yourself back to earth? What peices of information to you need ? How many steps are there? And in which order must those steps go?
Hint. (to do the exercise as intended, use what the woman told you) then add an object in space, maybe earth.. OR do we add a clock!? first.. good luck.
