Time is relative to the observer and not absolute

i think that the past is a relative, not an absolute concept. what is past  is assessed relative to someone or something. let's say we take a person from year 2000, create a very realistic dome of 1950's and put them in it. Would this person ever be able to tell whether it's actually 1950 or fake 1950? Answer is no, they wouldn't. Therefore, past/future is not absolute, it's relative to the reference point, or to an observer.
