What is Age: Definition and 589 Discussions

âge (アージュ, Āju) is a division of Avex Pictures as of July 10, 2017, a Japanese developer and publisher of adult video games and visual novels. âge was formerly known as Relic and developed video games for consoles. It gained fame following the release of its 2001 adult visual novel Kimi ga Nozomu Eien. It was founded by Hirohiko Yoshida, Baka Prince Persia, Nanpuureima, Spin Drill, and Carnelian. âge games are published under the brands Âge, Mirage, and Φâge.
In 2011, âge created its own parent company "ixtl" as a rights management company for âge's content, particularly the Muv-Luv franchise. The company was jointly held by CEO Takashi Nakanishi, Nippon Cultural Broadcasting, and Good Smile Company. In 2017, Avex Pictures acquired ixtl (and thus âge), and later changed the company's name to "aNCHOR".

    The age of the Universe in a denser region of TimeSpace

    According to Einsteinian Relativity, is the Universe considerably younger if one was to view it from within a greater distortion of the gravitational field? Is the value we assign for flat or non-flat universal age dependant on our own point of reference for time?

    Age of the observable Universe?

    Forgive my ignorance?.. If we can see 13.8-ish billion light years away how can the universe be the same age? Matter cannot travel at the speed of light, so how are we as far away (in light years) as the universe is old?

    Age of Universe for High Velocity Planet?

    Hello, I think it was Kurt Gödel who asked this while taking about time. The age of the universe and its size, is whatever it is for us because we are moving at a specific speed relative to light? If that is true, then a consciousness living on a planet moving at triple the speed of Earth...

    Determining The Size and Age of Our Universe

    The Size and Age of Our Universe If the universe is 14 billion years old, (roughly) then we can only see out in any direction for 14 billion light years. Thus any stars beyond 14 billion light years are invisible to us because their light hasn’t had time to reach us. If we cannot find an edge...

    How to calculate the Age of the Universe, from observations
