A note today on something that is implicit in many of the popular treatments of time travel that I’d like to make explicit. Namely, I’d like to explore the answer to the question: Presuming backward-and-forward time travel to be possible, how could we communicate with those from different times? This is something that actually comes up […]
Read More Science as the language of time-travelersSomething is rotten with the state of time travel/lightspeed physics. To “c” (the symbolic designation for the speed of light), or not to “c”? -That is the question plaguing physicists in a number of recent studies with apparently conflicting results. Traditionally, the speed of light is viewed as a barrier to physical movement. According to conventional […]
Read More Time travel physics in fluxEminent physicist and cosmologist Dr. Stephen Hawking has recently come out to say that he no longer fears ridicule and endorses the possibility of time travel. While this might seem like a revelation, his actual endorsement is not. Let me explain. Einstein’s Special Relativity has shown for nearly the last century that objects appear to move […]
