Time traveling

[Dryson]

According to CERN the gravity of Earth is weaker than the magnet on a fridge.

Magnetism is a class of physical phenomena that are mediated by magnetic fields. Electric currents and the magnetic moments of elementary particles give rise to a magnetic field, which acts on other currents and magnetic moments. Every material is influenced to some extent by a magnetic field.

Electromagnetism is a branch of physics which involves the study of the electromagnetic force, a type of physical interaction that occurs between electrically charged particles. The electromagnetic force usually shows electromagnetic fields, such as electric fields, magnetic fields, and light.

Every material is influenced to some extent by a magnetic field.- Time travel would be governed by magnetism because like every material that is influenced to some extent by a magnetic field then across-space all events would therefore be governed by magnetism as well. Unless the Universe stores events as they take place for every single action taking place in a Universe that would be able to be accessible somehow then Time Travel is not possible.

The Universe keeping track of events as they happen and then storing them would be like a 100 trillion ^100 trillion Moriarty Cubes connected together through an exchange of an exotic form of magnetism. Maybe the location where the Moriarty Cube Colony (the hole in the Universe needs a proper name) exists would be in the Hole in The Universe where most normal even Dark Matter does not exist.

Without normal matter of any form existing within the Moriarty Colony located in this hole in the Universe there would be only two constants present. Those constants would be Time and Space itself. Time because the Moriarty Colony has been measured to be at least 1 billion light years in across and space because of the volume that the Colony occupies. The Moriarty Colony also proves that Time does not need Gravity to exist because there are not any objects within the Moriarty Colony that produce objects with mass that create a magnetic field interaction between two objects with mass but we can see that Time across Space-Time still does in fact exist. There must be some exotic force at work though within the Moriarty Colony that would keep the rest of the Universe from occupying area that the Colony exists in. Otherwise like a collapsing star into a black hole the pressure of the Universe would cause all matter to occupy the billion light year across void. Since we do not see this taking place then the Moriarty Colony does not see any type of exertion of force on it at all. The only force exerted in the Colony is Time and Space.

Since only Time and Space exist in the Moriarty Colony accessing it might reveal the ability to actually Time Travel if that is the location where the Universe stores all of the events taking place in the Universe at all times. Humans have the ability to store and remember events and locations. We come from the Universe and are designed based upon the Universe this would make the Universe having the same ability to store and remember events and locations as well.

The question though is this. If the Moriarty Colony suddenly were to give way to the pressure of the Universe would we possibly see a second Big Bang event as matter occupied the one billion light across void?

Please rewind the gibberish for a moment. What is a Moriarty Colony supposed to be again? Did you make this up yourself?

 

[Dryson]

Re-read the comment that I posted.

Moriarty Cube = fictional memory storage used to store fictional hologram characters.

Moriarty Colony = 100trillion^100trillion collection of Moriarty cubes. All fiction.

 

[Silvercrest]

Seriously?

Okay, Dryson, you got me. Your post is definitely worth a re-read now.

The post is not referring to the fact of the Moriarty Colony being real. It's called context. I put the idea into a context that you might be familiar with. The Moriarty Colony is based off of the device in which Professor Moriarty was placed into after he escaped the holo-deck where in the device he was placed he would have an infinite number of adventures. Like the device Moriarty Colony would be able to store an accounts of a persons entire existence and the events surrounding them that place. Once stored in the Moriarty Colony the events would be able to be accessed and viewed after they had taken place and changed to create a new reality within the Colony itself.

The fact is this entire website is fiction so condemning a post calling it fiction is rather lacking in the fact of what Trek BBS is.

 

[sojourner]

Nope, Trekbbs is real. Some of the content on it is fiction.

 

[Dryson]

Trek BBS might be real but 85% to 90% of the content is fictional, which is includes all of the screen names, rankings, etc. is all fiction.

Now if the Hole in the Universe is not able to be penetrated by light then something has to be taking place in the Hole in the Universe that converts matter even light into something else. Since matter not even Dark Matter is present in the hole in the Universe then the only entity itself that would exist in the Hole would be Time.

 

[Gov Kodos]

No, being fictional material does not make the content of TrekBBS unreal.

Your second paragraph, though, is speculative at best though better description would be gibberish.

In order to time travel you would have to travel faster than the speed of light. Since Einstein says nothing can travel faster than the speed of light then time travel is not possible.

Time travel is not listening to a song on the radio from 30 years ago either.

 

[Silvercrest]

I accept this. Consequently I'd advise that you don't keep suggesting ways for it to occur. It being impossible and all.

What about the hubbub last Spring about NASA "accidentally" breaking the FTL barrier, or something like that?

They had to cover that up. Something about people turning into salamanders.

I don't know which experiment you might be thinking of. But the general pattern for this sort of thing is that every now and then there's evidence of a signal that might suggest something being transmitted faster than light. These always (so far, I grant) turn out to be the result of timing errors, or minor mistakes in working out how far something is supposed to have travelled, or signal processing glitches, or the like.

They're interesting because of the (incredibly) remote possibility of exciting new physics. But they keep turning out to be the challenges of measuring extremely slight signals in extremely noisy environments with equipment that is not always understood adequately. That's not to say reports of possible faster-than-light signals are stupid or anything, just that they are basically chances to learn how to better measure what we have; it's the important-but-boring stuff of which the world is made.

The problem with faster than light speed travel is that traveling faster than the speed of light is possible outside of a gravitational and EM environment which governs the space of light.

From what I have read from NASA articles is that for a few seconds after the Big Bang matter accelerated faster than the speed of light.
I have also read about how EM and magnets work where the colder a temperature is more magnetism occurs. If you heat up a magnet itwill lose its magnetism. So possibly right after the Big Bang occurred there was so much heat that magnetic and EM interactions were cancelled out allowing matter to travel faster than the speed of light. As the Big Bang cooled EM and magnetism formed polar alignment where metals formed from the Big Bang achieved permanent and varrying levels of magnetism and EM.

According to CERN gravity is a weak force where a refrigerator magnet has more force than gravity.

The speed of light does not exist without a sun being present. Traveling faster than the speed of light prior to the Big Bang could therefore be possible.

 

[Asbo Zaprudder]

I suggest you go and read those articles again, more carefully.

You've misunderstood your reading. That's not a mark against you. There's subtlety to the difference between space expanding and objects in space moving. The ``inflationary era'' to which you're referring is also a not-obvious development of the expansion of space.

So possibly right after the Big Bang occurred there was so much heat that magnetic and EM interactions were cancelled out allowing matter to travel faster than the speed of light.

You've misunderstood this as well. Magnets as in the kind made of matter in bulk lose their magnetism at great enough temperatures, yes. This has nothing to do with electromagnetism as a force existing.

Well it might not be possible because what we perceive as the past might not even be our own universe if we could even get there. I'm inclined to believe that you might be jumping to a parallel universe that looks like the past you want to visit but isn't actually our universe. However any return journey also might not guarantee you arrive back exactly in the universe you left.

I meant not possible within the framework of traveling in the past of the same universe. I just feel something in nature might prevent that, but universe hopping might let us perceive what we think is time travel.

BTW when you look at someone you are looking into the past due to light having to travel to your retina as its reflected off them.

I'm inclined to believe that you cannot travel into the past and that there are no "parallel universes".
