Interesting concept. I didn't like the story of an apple at first and here's why.

It makes easier for me to think of the concept in a waaaaaaaaay bigger scale. Not time, but matter and other massless particles related to the box. What I am imagining is the galaxy we are currently using being in one of these boxes....

What do you think is gonna take longer? To re-shape the galaxy to get the same apple (and also can have the dinosaurs back) or an apple closed in a perfect box to reappear?

Infinite, yes. But my question is, would it be more, less or somewhat ridiculously same amount of infinite time as for an apple needed to re-exists in the box from its decay?

​

Here's my dilemma.... to get an apple back in the box as we know it, wouldn't it be faster for a galaxy to form, solar system to evolve, right planet to orbit in a right distance from it, specific mass and properties of the planet to give existence to a tree and the apple that thrive in the right environmental conditions to grow and exists as we know it?

​

Also, what would take longer to get that apple back? Just an apple closed in the box as in the video or our whole galaxy sealed in the box that eventually produced an apple?
