English term or phrase: variations in time speed along the ancient galactic time line
• Universe expansion rate is not constant but oscillating.
Furthermore, the aliens disclosed that the speed of universe expansion is not constant but oscillates between very high speed to lower speed. As a direct result, the speed of time also varies as a result of the speed of expansion. Currently we are near a peak of universe expansion and, as a result, the speed of time is relatively high. Time is passing very quickly. Of course, this cannot be observed by humans or even the most advanced human measuring devices, since all are made of the same material and obey the same time speed.
The aliens propose a way possibly to prove this theory by observations into distant deep space. Since the light reaching us from those faraway places displays a time-line history, there are ways to measure variations in the universe's expansion rate and, as a result, variations in time speed along the ancient galactic time line. Of course, we could test this only after we give up the contention that time speed is constant everywhere and at all times.

Explanation:
... par rapport à l'ancienne base de temps galactique.

Un peu charabia, mais ce qui compte dans un livre de science-fiction, c'est la fiction. Sinon je pense qu'il est vrai que le temps ne s'écoule pas de manière linéaire. La phrase aurait quand même pu être un peu moins tordue.
