A cool theory that explains how time travel can occur.
but then again it never happened… we would know lolz at paradoxi
I’ve read about how you can go back in time, thoretically. It’s crazy to say the least.
I wants to do it, Lol.
Time travel is has always been possible but you can only go forward at the speed of life.
wow…i want to see what comes of this…i couldn’t really follow the mathematical/scientific end of it, but i could see what they mean with the future messages…pretty cool.
neat
Erhm, speed of light, but yea.
I don’t quite support what this person is doing… I think he should let time be… Because if he does actually successfully build this machine, there is a 50% chance that it will be completely unstable, and we won’t be able to control it.
There is also a 50% chance that it will be a remarkable milestone in science, and will be a success, but that is assuming we can control, and contain the machine. I’m sorry, but that is not a percentage I would be willing to act upon.
This person possibly has the power to potentially ruin the earth for everyone…
We don’t know for sure if it will work, probably not, but if it does, we just might be screwed.
Dude if he is going to do it, it has already been built. You can’t stop what is and already will be. But we know now, people haven’t come back in time and told us how to go forward. (again we’d know)
Haha, wow! Care to explain where you got your statistics from?
this is the current theory. don’t bug me. lol.
time travel by traveling at the speed of light is impossible because we have mass. only things that are massless can travel at the speed of light because your mass increases as you get closer to the speed of light. as you approach the speed of light, your mass approaches infinity and therefore takes an infinite amount of energy to accelerate you further. the only way to travel through time is by wormholes but they are highly unstable, collapsing the instant they form. they only way to produce a stable wormhole is to enlarge a theoretic subatomic sized black hole and stabilize it using dark energy. this seems HIGHLY improbable to me and also produces random results. i don’t see time travel as an option. as adjuggler has said, if time travel was possible, people would travel back to our time and we would know that time travel exists. in fact time travel and the rest of our technology could have been invented thousands of years ealier if we could travel back in time and share our technology with past civilizations. since we don’t currently have haven’t had time travel, it can not exist.
You can get infinite energy…you just need to use complex numbers. My teacher showed me how.
what? no! speed of life.
beeper.
are you threatening me?!
agreed, I am always travelling through time
assuming these things to have a 50% probability is quite erroneous. we know nothing/not enough to make these predictions. the only way i can see someone successfully going ‘forward’ in time is through the tried and true ‘faster you go, slower time is for you’ method. However, to achieve a speed great enough to take any significant effect on the time differential would be one of the greatest scientific leaps this century.
ya it would be a huge scientific leap to defy the impossible. the only way to travel at the speed of light is to have no mass, then you are always traveling at the speed of light. if you could convert your body to pure energy you acould travel through time but you would no longer be matter, and would therefore not be human and wouldn’t know you traveled through time.
energy also goes to infinite when you approach the speed of light, however, if you are not actually AT the speed of light, the time difference would still be quite significant. this method has been experimented on, where 2 atomic clocks were synchronized. One stays on earth while the other takes a ride in a space shuttle for however much time. this speed difference meant that the atomic clocks DID have a measurable time difference between them (However minute it was…). This time difference was achieved at the relatively low speeds (compared to the speed of light) of orbit.
in reply to the other part of your post, concerning wormholes-
wouldnt you simply die if you approached/went through a wormhole? space curves in ways we cannot comprehend, if you entered it, there would be a period where you are cut in half or ripped apart by gravity?
if you travel at the speed of light you can navigate time. and yes you are right about the clocks.
if the wormhole is big enough you can pass through without being stretched like spaghetti just like flying into a big black hole. a small black hole would stretch you into a thin noodle but a big black hole wouldn’t
confusing stuff. wouldnt it just be much more sensible to wait for technology to be at its peak? I dont exactly want to be squished by a black hole…
Yeah what he said.
