*Is time travel possible?*

[@snarzetax]

Forward, yes, we do it all the time. Backward, no, not without finding some way of realizing negative velocity. How do you go slower than absolutely still?

[@CraigCruden]

Can anyone really answer that right now... I don't think we know the whole story about time. From textbooks, it seems that many think the big bang is the starting point of time... but if there was something (that we may never be able to find out) before the big bang... it is hard to conceive of existence without what we know of as time. I still have a gut feeling that were are still in our infancy of really understanding. We think we know more than we really do, and it will be both fun and a bit humbling once humanity has come to that realization when we are looking back 50 or 70 years from now (possibly from still being in our infancy but knowing so much more -- yet still again thinking we know more than we do).

[@midclock]

The parallel of cassettes/turntable is a great example. We need to use abstraction for this topics, otherwise things become complicated very quickly. I believe that past, present and future coexist in the same moment. It all depends on where's the observer, and what's being observed. Unfortunately I'm not able to verify this mathematically, but only spit theories.

[@ryanwebb5082]

If gravity is the observer then we’re the object moving through it. The other barriers preventing us from moving through time are far more rigid than gravity. Actual objects cannot move but anything that can move through gravity has the ability to move through time: in theory. If there are machines created which can defy gravity then they can challenge the far more rigid structures.

I love Bob Lazar’s explanation. We think of travel using propulsion. Propulsion is a measure of thrust and distance traveled in a certain amount of time because of gravity fighting back against us. If gravity is defeated, propulsion is not needed. Speed no longer exists. It’s all about defeating gravity.

[@JeremyCrow]

That's still travelling through three-dimensional space, but doing it easily. What Eric is saying here is that if time has at least two dimensions instead of just one then someone with the right technology could essentially pop in and out of 3D space-time at will, like putting a pin on a map.

You appear to have completely forgotten about both inertia and momentum - you will still need to accelerate to change your velocity. Of course, if there's no celestial bodies with mass creating gravity, there's nothing to measure your velocity against so it's all a moot point anyway.

He says we need to look at successive theories, but no one has provided one yet that disproves the standard model. It's not that scientists are afraid to deviate from the standard model--it's just that no one has come up with anything better that can stand up to rigorous testing.

[@dcal6365]

He seems too smug about it. Instead of being smug, just prove it. You have a better theory? Prove it.

[@llamatooth]

Oddly enough, I understood his last point. I’m a simpleton and analyst, but using MicroStrategy they have “Attributes” and “Metrics.” For business objects, attributes describe things like names, places, things, etc. Metrics describes measurable things like sales, costs, time, debt. Eric’s kind of describing that in a much more sophisticated way. We don’t have access to the “metrics” like an multidimensional engineer might. We only see the “attributes” around us.

[@sexgod57able]

Exactly. There are many more complex issues and problems that one needs to master before successfully traveling through time. But, at a basic level, you got it.

[@GrendelSheperd]

Totally agree. We need folks like this to propel us forward. Some of these folks are wrong, but the way they think is needed to keep us finding things to solve.

[@psychedelictacos9118]

Well I mean, like he says he can prove multi dimensions mathematically and thereby infer they exist, but I think like you said what he is saying we cannot measure these metrics because they are just theoretical and it is even questionable that we have observed attributes such as U.F.O sightings (I mean the actual U.F.O itself not the number of sightings which is measurable) well I guess space time warps and bends around blackholes which I think is measurable, but i think scientists do not know how to measure the 4th-6th dimension in our universe except when using mathematical simualtion models or equations.

The main take away is "if you follow Einstein's equation we literally defeat gravity everyday given our mass in ratio to the earth and if you take that into account of what the Earth's mass will be incomperison to the vastness of space, the earth will barely make a dant in creating a meaningful amount of gravity with its mass in ratio to the vastness of space, which means, a device capable of creating a warmhole (warmhole: creating a significant warp of the space and time around an object/body through gravity according to Einstein's theory |||| Gravity: in basic terms its created or greatly influenced by the mass of an object) will be incredibly ridiculous and extremely chaotic as it will require an unprecedented amount of energy to create a stupendously ridiculous artificial mass to create an unimaginable amount of gravity in order to warp space and time. What Eric is saying is, that's one way of looking at the possibility. What if it can be done by having access to multiple Temporal dimensions where time is none linear (linear here means time can be observed from multiple directions or its entirety).

Depends on how you define time… If time was only defined by the rotation of the earth, (that’s how we measure time), then you could say that people in Japan live in the future compared to people living in the US and you could time travel using an airplane. But real time is not defined by clocks or calendars, it’s only a way of measuring it.

[@escapevelocity8092]

@sandirtoukaev8920 great question. Firstly, consciousness doesn't 'go' anywhere. You are conscious on a different frequency while dreaming. The fact you don't remember it is because your assemblage point is so fixed in one place in the waking state. It is possible to consciously dream, but the guards of the rational mind have to be subdued. The physical body is under such a strong survival imprint while awake, that leaving the body represents 'death' to the survival imprint, hence it creates all kinds of barriers to this experience, to keep you safe. The waking state is like an MP3 file, a compressed version of reality. The dream state is like a wave file. The wave file can't be read by an MP3 player, unless converted. When we are born, our assemblage point, which is a bright spot on our energy cocoon, moves more freely, so the defining lines between realities is not so sharp. Hence young people often percieve things which adults no longer do, like dead relatives, past lives and so-called imaginary friends. Through enculteration and the learning of language, the assemblage point becomes fixed in one place, the same spot the rest of humanity's assemblage point is on. We call this spot 'normal reality' or 'physical reality'. This is why, when we turn off our internal dialogue, either through sleep, meditation or so-called unconsciousness, we can once again enter other frequencies of consciousness. Bringing them back to memory, is simply a matter of shifting our assemblage point back to the spot it was on when we originally had the experience. Time is only constant while our assemblage point is fixed on the habitual spot, in the dream body, it is possible to have 2 separate experiences at the same time, but when awake again our mind cannot put one experience 'before' or 'after' the other, so it screens them out as they don't pertain to physical survival.

[@Dee-nonamnamrson8718]

It was also genius because it helped us make huge leaps in technology, just like the newtonian model. But like the newtonian model, its incomplete, although useful.

We, humanbeings, are able to interact within our dimensional space because we were constructed inside this environment.

He states this by identifying his peers, and that community in general as being completely ignored when we should have financed them to study these questions esp now! Smart fella though, you really need to pay close attention to what he is trying to tell us. I bet he'd be fun to party with lol!

Time past that point exists but you're only able to travel back to the point where your device was created to "work" is all the farthest back you could go. At that point you could tell them to not turn it on or try it but time before the device would be unreachable.

Yea is so interesting. When he was talking about the pullback method I didn’t really understand. Then he mentioned that is not bending space itself using relativity because technically you would have to use gravity and applied it correctly to quantum theory. I think he understands that this is just too complicated and said separate gravity completely use successive theory to create order from point A to B this will allowed the pull back method to work as they travel “not through” space time. Very interesting indeed.

i think bending space and time may be the only way or A way to actually travel large distances in short time..but who is to say that these visitors are traveling a short time;...but rationally lets assume that the visitors are "studying", then they would need to collect data then return the information to an "overseer" or "proof-reader" of sorts, then they would need to return the data quickly for analysis...the return trip would be the same distance...so if i traveled for 3 light years the it would take a total of 6 light years to go and return... now if these visitors function with time as we do and "age" like we do then their "studies" are for nothing because 6 light years later all will have been changed ...so getting back to their habitat in a speedy fashion will be a mandate....and to consistantly travel at will between any point in space as fast as desired might be the result of manupilating space and time....im no expert but this is what makes sense to me...any1's thoughts🤔🧐

This is my take: These beings whatever they are.. can freeze and influence time space both in side the craft and outside the craft. That would allow them to be in any place in space instantly. You freeze (or slow down time) to almost stand still inside the craft and isolate it via time space bubble. Then the interaction between the two times moves the craft.

But one interesting thing he said is the amount of time he put into that is probably the same amount of time someone else would put into a different business like tech that’s more scalable. George said he learned a ton but admits the business you choose to start can dictate how much you actually make. And ya music or sports etc seems very rare to actually make it big or even make a few million as most end up give up for a job that pays.

I used to think like that but now I think there is more to it. The reason people say this is because Schrödinger's equation is time-symmetric. Change t with -t and you still get the same physics. However, quantum mechanics has a feature which is not time-symmetric, and this is the measurement process/collapse of the wave function. This makes a fundamental difference between the past and the future, and to my mind makes more sense than the entropy explanation.
