Well, the pyramids in the Valley of the Kings last for around 4500 years. Dinosaurs have ruled the Earth for approximately 120 million years. Solar system is 5 billion years old. Cosmos is around 13 billion years old. Compared to those numbers, indeed, several hours isn't that long. Furthermore, you have to account for the time dilatation. One hour on the planet that's evolving and revolving at 900 miles an hour is not the same as one hour of standing still. To make things even more interesting, it's orbiting at 19 miles a second, so it's reckoned, The sun that is the source of all our power. So, several hours is relative.  Each object has its relative time so it's not possible to conclude whether several hours is a long time or not.
