'''Time dilation creationism''' is form of [[Young Earth creationism|young earth creationist]] interpretation of the [[Genesis creation narrative]] which tries to harmonize the existence of distant galaxies with the 6 day creation. The theory proposes that the universe experienced a rapid passage of time, while the [[earth]] itself experienced six literal days, because of [[time dilation]]. It is asserted that the time dilation mainly happened on day 4 of creation.<ref>{{Cite web |title=New time dilation helps creation cosmology - creation.com |url=https://creation.com/new-time-dilation-helps-creation-cosmology |access-date=2022-04-27 |website=creation.com |language=en-gb}}</ref><ref>{{Cite journal |date=2018 |title=A Solution for the Distant Starlight Problem Using Creation Time Coordinates |url=https://digitalcommons.cedarville.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1017&context=icc_proceedings |journal=Proceedings of the International Conference on Creationism}}</ref><ref name=":0">{{Cite web |title=Time Dilation Cosmological Models |url=https://answersresearchjournal.org/time-dilation-cosmological-models/ |access-date=2022-04-27 |website=answersresearchjournal.org |language=en}}</ref><ref>{{Cite book | |

Because of the problem of the distance of starlight, time dilation has been used by some young earth creationists to explain how starlight from the edge of the universe, around 13 billion light years away could travel to the Earth in less than 7000 years, thus it has been proposed that on the fourth day of creation, there was a type of time dilation which allowed the light to travel to the earth from the edge of the universe.<ref>{{Cite book |last=O’Briant |first=Stanley J. |url=https://books.google. |
