  • Some scientists take time travel seriously. Should you? What does time travel reveal about the nature of space and time? What about the laws of physics under extreme conditions? And don't forget those 'Grandfather Paradoxes', where a time traveler kills his own ancestor.

      @christian babis By changing your perception about it. Example: you break a bone and expect some time before it can heal. However, someone else may break a same bone and heal themself instantaneously. The difference would be that deep down inside you you believe it should take time before you can heal anything in your body, while the other person does not hold the same idea and belief about _(linear)_ time within their ability to heal themself.

    • @SpiritualReform

      You've been creating the perception that you are traveling thru time _(that's what time is....perception which we experience)_ and thusly creating that reality for yourself where you experience aging, and such other things relative to your belief and perception about linear time, which also includes the idea and belief of cause & effect.

    Tim is the only guy of your three who actually understands that there is a huge difference between math and physics. The physical universe constrains math. Not the other way around. It boggles the mind to hear a physicist say something like "The strength of gravity is controlled by the gravitational constant." The truth is that the magnitude of the gravitational constant is determined by the structure and content of the universe.
    In just the same way as Scientology exploits ignorance, there are physicists who do the same.

      Absolutely. But the first law is inverted in the enclosed region of a black hole. In fact negative temperature is abundant inside a black hole. This means that as you add heat to the system it gets colder and one particle of this negative temperature would boil all the galaxies in the universe.

    I honestly just had an epiphany while watching this. It doesn't really make any sense to say that time has a direction at all. To reverse time is a fallacy. What we are experiencing as time is a movement of objects and in our perspective, to reverse time would be the perfect reversal of the movement of objects in the exact coordination with which they arrived here from where they came.. so really, time isn't about time at all. It's about the movement of objects in relation to each other. We notice the year as a rotation of the earth around the sun. Several of those and you've got a century. We notice a minute as a rotation of a watch hand around the dial. If we turn the dial backwards does that reverse time? If we made the earth rotate opposite around the sun would time be reversed then? If we could make everyone age backwards would that be time reversal? If time seemed to be moving in reverse and everything was going backwards would that be time reversal? Or would we still experience it as time moving forward but everything is just happening differently.. I think time is really just our experience of objects and their movement and tracking them and following their patterns. To say time could be reversed is pretty much nonsense. Even if it was reversed, time is not happening in reverse. You always experience it as moving forward, it's just an alternate movement of objects. If time does start moving in reverse that throws out the idea of free will definitely as now time is on a track going backwards.. does this mean free will is impossible just the idea that if time started moving backwards it would be on a track? Or could we effect the past in reverse? Does it mean it's on a track moving forward?

      I think of time as a plane. So, therefore it can travel in all directions, hence different "time lines", but it may also be fluid where theres one line that can be transformed into something else at any given point and since all we have are our memories, we would never realize it because our memories would also conform to the time line as it changes. Also,it may just be us that tries to understand time by saying theres a reverse or forward. OR maybe Im putting too much thought into it.

      But in the center of a black hole, spacetime is warped so drastically that space and time swap and the center of a black hole becomes the future rather than a spot in space. If time and space were really that independent, there wouldn't be examples like that where they interact so fluidly. He never said they weren't linked. He said they're not exactly the same thing. He, in fact, nodded twice, agreeing with the concept of spacetime.

    Sadly, he's probably right. Perhaps the best reason to believe time travel isn't possible other than the conspicuous deficiency of tourists from the future, is that if time travel was possible, probably there would be no Fermi Paradox because every planet in the universe would be colonized, or at least every one that didn't have an enormous impending catastrophe (you wouldn't colonize a planet around a star that's about to explode for instance), they'd have probably colonized the universe, not just the observable universe but the whole universe, by 100 million years after the big bang if you could go back as early as desired.

  • @mennnzz
    @mennnzz Před 4 lety +2

    The only way I see time travel as being possible is by reversing the flow (vectors) of particles and their physical interactions so that everything in existence interacts backwards to a certain cosmic particles-orientation (with the time traveler being the only particles separate from this rewind). But this doesn't mean that we're actually time traveling - as we'd still be in the same universe with the current now, but in a different (old) arrangement of atoms. Such a feat seems impossible, though.
    You'd have to know the exact position and momentum of every atom in the universe, and ACTUALLY have the technology to reverse them. On the other hand, if the universe is a simulation, all you'd need is access to the code. This would require you to get outside the simulation, though, because it would only be able to be done from the outside.

    Maths is a tool to understand reality and quantify, but is not necessarily the nature itself. I could put some examples from my field, engineering. Sometimes, I have discovered empirical models which works really well in predicting an output variable, based on several inputs. I used PLS method (partial least square), which is a multivariate regression method. It essentially works by projecting input variables that have a high correlation into a vectorial space with less variables (=less dimensions), therefore reducing the dimensionality of the input. The point here is that it is doing the same projection with the output. Hence, I have worked with examples where input dimensions have been reduced from tens to 3 or four, but the single output variable has been transformed into a four dimension vector. It works really well with 99% of certainty, but it is clear that it is only a mathematical apparatus since it makes sense with the input, but the nature of the output is one dimension. In this example, maths are not describing the reality, but are very useful.

      No, that's not true at all. For instance, it is well known that if there are 2 cosmic strings (1 dimensional gravitational singularities, an infinitely long string rather than a point as in a black hole - it's a different type of singularity than a black hole) that pass each other by at high speed and you flew figure 8s around them fast enough in the right direction, you'd go back in time. That is neither 1 nor 2 so not 3. The problem there is that cosmic strings likely don't exist.

    Travel in time also seems to necessitate travel in space. Even if it were possible, there's no point in travelling in time if you find yourself out of reach of anything you actually know. The point of this almost primal urge to travel in time is to experience events in the past or future that have meaning. To travel into the past only to be unable to participate in that time frame would be futile. Which is a shame considering the enormous effort and energy that would be involved.

    It could be that earth is travelling backward in time, that if we travel at speed of light the backward travel in time is slowed to the present, while reality is travelling towards the future through quantum or somehow; giving the feeling that we are moving from past to future.

    Look, this business of "reversing the arrow of time" would accomplish nothing even if we could do it. The way I see it only one of two things could happen. Either a) everything continues to evolve, just as it evolves now, only in the direction of decreasing time coordinate. There would be no difference - it's the same evolution. That amounts to nothing but a "labeling change." Or, b) everything begins evolving backward. If that happens, how would we know? How do we know it's NOT happening on a regular basis? Our memories would unwind - we'd re-experience the same set of instants we previously experienced, except we wouldn't know it because the memories we had of it "later" in time would have devolved out. Time might reverse all the time - our progress through time may always be two steps forward one step back, but we still only have one continuous stream of actual experiences that create the memories we have at some point in time. In neither case do we get anything other than exactly what we're getting.

    I don't like such certainty that time travel isn't possible any more than I would like such certainty that time travel is possible.
    Experimentation is where its at.
    We might never be able to prove time travel isn't possible, we might never be able to devise an experiment that shuts down once and for all every possible theorized method of time travel. But we can devise experiments for specific theorized methods of time travel that we may one day actually be able to build and run, one theorized method at a time. At which point we might be able to disprove a specific theorized method of time travel, but always leaving open the possibility that there may be methods that could work that haven't even been theorized or that are as of yet untested.
    A better format for arguing the subject would be to discuss specific proposed methods individually. To just say time travel isn't possible is to not only dismiss current theorized methods, which there may well be reason to dismiss, but also time travelling methods that have yet to even have been theorized.
    Some scientist who is trying to come up w/a method of time travel, even in his failure, might accidentally discover something else useful completely unrelated to that goal. Many failed experiments have led to great discoveries unrelated to the stated goals of said experiments after all.
    Until it is known one way or the other, via experimentation that is, it can still be profitable to have less certainty on the subject. If we think we already know the answer, then we'll stop searching for the answer and that would be sad, even if it turned out after all the searching that time travel wasn't possible - the failed search for the possibility could still be fruitful.
    Or to put it another way, lets not poo poo the people eager to prove time travel a possibility, even if we foresee failure in their future, for even if they are wrong, their failed attempts at proving so could lead to beneficial results for us all, or who knows, maybe they could even succeed.

      @@samuelmendoza9561 Einstein's Special Theory of Relativity tells us that the passage of Time is not a constant, it does not pass by at a constant rate. The passage of time is influenced by (1) the speed that you are traveling and (2) Gravity. If you are moving, the rate at which your time passes by is SLOWER than the rate at which time passes by for someone standing still. Obviously at the speed of an automobile the difference is very small, but it IS different. But if you travel at near the speed of light, your time passes by much more slowly than a person standing still. If you were in a rocket ship traveling to Alpha Centauri (a neighboring star of our sun) it would take you approximately 4 years to get there (as measured by your wristwatch) because Alpha Centauri is 4.243 light years away. If you turned around when you got there and flew back to earth at the same speed the total elapsed time for you would be about 8 years. But, when you got back to earth you'd find that THEIR time had elapsed by several hundred years. You not only traveled in space, you also traveled in time!
      Time is also altered by gravity. The higher the gravity, the slower time passes by. Scientists have actually measured the difference in the passage of time for an Atomic clock located at the top of the Empire State Building compared to an Atomic Clock at ground level in the Empire State Building-because the clock at the top is farther away from the center of the earth and is thereby experiencing lower gravity than the clock at ground level.
      The passage of time is not a constant, it is influenced by velocity and by gravity. Einstein proved that.

    I guess Mr Tim didn't hear about Dr. Ronald Mallet. He not only know time travel back in time is possible and he solved Einstein equation for that, but he even has a blue print for first time machine. At least practically we will be able to send information back in time to earliest point which will be when the device was first powered up. The machine involves circular lasers that in the middle will deform time and space by swirling due to circulating beam of light, likely very high power special lasers and also the circumference must be sufficiently small else the power needed grows exponentially. So first time travel to back will be sending information. His idea he discovered slowing Einstein equation is based on idea that if gravity can affect matter and light can affect gravity, then light can affect time. So it's funny I know this and the scientist not. I guess they are l are so deep digged in their own tranches they become to a degree blind to what others are doing. Time travel into future is nothing special. It's done every time you move relative to something, just you would have to move very close to speed of light to truly see it. Else the slowing of your time relative to others is negligible small. And traveling back it time out there is space you could try black holes entering under a special angle so you come out before you entered. Else practical we need to wait to Dr. Mallet to design a working model and we need to be content by simply just sending at best information back in time which also can also be send back only to the point machine will be make and powered on and no further. So a lot of limitations, but that is where we are at least which is far further then Mr. Tom claim we can't even travel back in time. Pls.

      We only register snapshots of a specific state and then in our minds we combine those and get a sense of a time flow. To alter the time flow we need to be able to jump between different states in some other way. The different states would be still present in different universes as in the many world theory. So by gaining access to the parallel universes we would in sense travel in time.

      Hello Spot box.
      First, a question: Does being able to _imagine_ a scenario (or in some imaginary sense, play it out in a computer game) indicate that the scenario necessarily represents any _real_ possibility? No! Indeed, it is perfectly possible to imagine complete nonsense. I am sure that I have spent too much of my own life doing just that.
      Secondly, much works in Mathematics that doesn't apply to the real world - even in very simple cases. For example, '4-5 = (-1)' is an allowable piece of mathematics. More than that, it is a _necessary_ mathematical truth (it cannot possibly be false), but I cannot _actually_ take 5 apples out of a fruit bowl containing only 4 apples and end up having -1 apples left in the bowl. Perfectly sensible, even necessary, mathematics may be physical nonsense. Thus, that a solution to an equation allows a certain outcome not only fails (all by itself) to indicate that the solution can be a physical reality, it allows the outcome to amount to nothing more than a physical absurdity.

      Let's imagine there are only 4 apples in the entire universe, than talking about fifth apple doesn't make any sense, since after 4 there can be no material limits anyway and we can only ques mathematical abstraction. But if we know what apple is and new fruit is growing all the time, negative outcomes make perfect sense. Even if there would be only 4 apples left in the world, we could say fifth one started to grow right now, it's just not yet ready to became a part of our temporal equation.
      Virtual worlds are not pure fiction, they are mathematical monsters where material form is replaced by some exact value. This goes same for Einstein and others idea about arrow of time, except computers can transform numbers back to illusion of reality. It's still an illusion, so anything goes, , but so is also entire human technology, made possible by exactly same mental process as computers do with complex number systems. All i say is, we can make virtual worlds work for real, if we could represent every mathematical value by some realistic quantum particle approximation. It doesn't need to be perfect, we can bend every natural law, if we are interested only in reproducing some special effect or experience already achieved inside machine electronics, those also obeying same real physical laws. Computers doesn't work the same way as artist's hand, human can draw anything, but machines can't and never will be able to because they can't simulate how it feels like to draw a dream. But what they can assemble from tinny mathematical dots, sure can be reproduced in real life, at least to some extension.
