Time is a worthless trash unit incapable of holding a conversation, let alone holding a whole space. Have you heard of space getting bent by time? I didn't think so.
Under controlled lab conditions however, an agglomeration of times (the technical term is a yonk) have been observed to hold a fragment of a space. The quantity of space contained in such a moment is technically not detectable with even the most sensitive technology, but the calculations indicate that it is actually happening.

The "space bar" is not an actual astronautical beverage establishment, as is commonly thought. "space bar" is actually short for "space (between) bar(s)", aka a liminal domain which in the vast majority of (but not all) cases is itself not a bar.
One may argue any space has the potential to be a bar if you've got the audacity to haul a goon sack around with you in public, but even then it doesn't really count unless you convince people to pay actual money, taking turns chugging cheap wine and backwash out of a communal silver bag.

I was most fortunate in my travels through your galaxy's western arms; my arrival in the Ling Ring asteroid belt coincided perfectly with the fiery implosion of Ling III's largest moon, Curcal. I'd only arrived to admire the transport lines assembled between the asteroids of the Ring, maybe pick up some Lingweed (for personal use! Jeez!) if anyone was offering.
Ling's a rather beautiful system if you've never been there, if you like gas giants, peach-on-mauve color schemes, and your craft can take a cosmic gravelling, I'd certainly recommend you check it out. There's not much to actually do there since Curcal was wiped off the map and the Lingweed extraction was bought out by old Stellartto Heels, but definitely stop by if you're in the neighborhood and have the spare fuel.
The local authorities, by the way, eventually cleared me of any culpability with the satellite's demise.

Not fond of the Contemporal Revisionist movement we're seeing a lot of. I don't care if it's "a modernised reconstruction of long-established canon", they just look goofy with feathers all over their vestments. There. I said it.
