Pretty good understanding of time and how we interact with it already, but thinking of it as Dr. Liu outlined just put it in a whole new "light". Truly is the final frontier of understanding our universe if we grasp that dynamic. Absolutely thought provoking in the highest order. And so many other points. I have so many questions to submit!

Same thing happened to me. Was too excited to play my first college soccer match. Only slept for 2 hours and saw the ground, it was raining and my team was getting ready. Next day bam. Was standing at the exact same spot, it was raining and my team was getting ready. Never saw that ground before in my life. I think it is string theory where our mind is somehow capable to jump a few frames and jump back.

The interplay between spacetime and the concept of premonitions raises intriguing questions about the nature of causality and time itself. The brachistochrone problem, which identifies the curve of fastest descent between two points, serves as a fascinating analogy in this context. If we consider the trajectory of particles in a curved spacetime, could the solutions to such optimization problems reveal deeper insights into the fabric of reality and our perception of time? How might our understanding of these principles alter our approach to predicting future events in the cosmos?

Great question i think they wouldve already turned on, in the exact moment that you reached 100% the speed of light if you intended on turning them on because; Time slows down when you travel faster and faster but time doesnt exist at 100% the speed of light, so for photons, so if you were going to turn them on they would automatically know and already be on and if you werent they never would be and their is no having them off and then turning them on at the speed of light because the information is exchanged instantaneously just like entangled particles in quantum physics thats my theory.

Maybe I misunderstood but there seems to be a logical fallacy in the explanation of FTL travel and causality. The example given of a vehicle outracing a radio signal to a distant star doesn't actually represent a violation of causality as far as I understand it. The causal connection between an event and it's interpretation is the transmission of information. If you send a radio signal, and then beat it to it's destination then yes of course you'll know what the signal is before receiving it but only because you carried that information with you. If instead a radio signal from a nearby planet was fired without your knowledge at a destination and you warp to that destination you'd be reaching that destination in the "future" from the perspective of the signal but you wouldn't be able to receive the signal in advance of its natural arrival because the reality isn't that you're going into the future, it's that we're already in the past from the perspective of distant objects, in reality you'd be arriving in the "present" relative to the destinations perspective of time. If I threw a ball down a football field and you traveled faster than light to the spot where the ball would land you would see you catching the ball in the present, but I wouldn't because the light from that event would still take time to reach me so in reality we'd be witnessing the same event taking place at the same time just from different relative perspectives. From your prospective it's your present which from your perspective is my future but from my perspective it's my present which from my perspective is your past. There is no violation there. You wouldn't be catching the ball before it arrived you'd just be seeing it arrive on your end before I could witness it arriving on my end but given that my perspective is in your past that makes sense. I would have only ever been able to see it happen later than when you did because the light from the event would take time to reach me. Like on the surface it sounds wonky because it suggests the same event is happening in two different times from a single perspective but that's not what is happening. What is actually happening is the same event is occurring at the same time from two different perspectives. The former would violate causality, the latter would not.

One argument *for* seeing the future, that neither NDT or Charles mentioned, is lack of free will, which has been discussed previously on ST. so if the future is predetermined, then why couldn't the brain foresee that? If anything, it should be more impressive that our brain dreams as randomly as it does and doesn't continuously foresee everything.

The best way to put it, is that for instance the magnitude of motion of your car, is equal to the magnitude of motion of a photon of light. Both share the same magnitude of motion. What you still can do to your car though, is change the direction of its ongoing motion within the 4D environment known as space-time. If you are whipping down a highway, and make a sudden turn to the left, your body leans to the right relative to your car, and the opposite occurs if you veer off to the right instead. This is due to sudden change of direction. If you hit the accelerate peddle, your body presses against the back of the seat, and if you hit the brakes, your body leans forward. Here too, this body movement is due to sudden changes of the direction of the motion of the car. Anyhow, if you throw together a simple geometric motion vector and length scalar representation of your cars or spaceships motion within space-time, you can then use it to derive the special relativity(SR) equations, and complete this task in mere minutes, even if you have no physics education at all. They currently do NOT teach this specific geometric method in schools, since updates or minor changes these days that lead to seeing things differently or from a different point of view, often are not accepted for over a 100 years.

Great discussion. The perception of time is subjective across the globe. However, in some parts of the world (more Western), there is a monochronic way of seeing/experiencing ‘time’… but in places like Africa and Asia, ‘time’ is seen as a polychronic occurrence of their experiences - while at the same time... ‘time’ moves regardless of our experiences. Hope that makes sense?...

hey Neill, great show! It really makes you think about the different topics. I've got a question for you, Regarding time. First let's set the playing field: Time, past present future. We asume that time goes in a line from the past through the present and into the future. Take the universe. There is a "now" all across the universe at the same time. We can get a glimps of the universe thanks to light that travels at it's speed through the universe. We are seeing "the past". Here comes the juicy bit. The question: Could the present "now" be the knifes edge that pushes through times probabilitywave. In it creating a seperation between the past and the future. But On just the right seperation of the past and the future. there are sparks akin to electricity sparks between the past and the future seperating the past and the future from the now? Wich would make virtual particles in a vacuum "lend" energy from the future to create the particles that imediately selfdestruct. It can not lend power from to far in the future because the "distance" is to great. What I'm trying to say is that : could there be a difference between spacetime and "time"? Great show thank you!

For the first question, I'm a little bit surprised that this wasn't also framed as the way many people (like me) think of Time Dilation: the flatter your curve in the space dimension (faster speed), the less you can move through the time dimension, therefore you experience less time. The hyperbolic math comes out of the observation that the time dilation effect becomes increasingly extreme at an increasing rate as you approach the speed of light through space. Next, i would disagree that warp drive, such as an Alcubierre or similar, necessarily violates causality. While it's true that you might arrive at your destination before the radio signal, that doesn't imply that you arrived before the signal was sent. In the same way that when we eventually watch Betelgeuse go supernova, we will be observing something that actually occurred ages ago. While the Start Trek universe is full of timey-wimey hijinks, such as tachyons and Q, was drive isn't one of them. The warp bubble creates a pocket of spacetime within which time flows normally and is shunted to another place to be stitched back in. The bubble can move superluminally for the same reason that space itself is allowed to expand faster than light speed. The only piece of Trek tech that i don't see happening is the Heisenberg Compensator that allows the transporter to function without violating the eponymous uncertainty principle. My favorite, though, is the deflector dish. I don't know the details of the tech, but it sounds a lot like some of the ideas about how ancient Egyptians were able to move massive stone blocks that even today's cranes would struggle with.

Tautochrone problem is the inverse The Brachistochrone problem The Brachistochrone problem is a classic physics and mathematics problem that dates back to the 17th century. It deals with finding the curve along which a particle will slide without friction between two points in the shortest time under the influence of gravity. The term "brachistochrone" comes from the Greek words "brachistos," meaning shortest, and "chronos," meaning time. In simpler terms, the problem can be stated as follows: Given two points A and B in a vertical plane, what is the shape of the curve along which a particle will slide from point A to point B in the least amount of time, assuming there is no air resistance and the only force acting on the particle is gravity? The solution to the Brachistochrone problem is a curve called the cycloid. The cycloid is the path traced out by a point on the rim of a rolling circle as it moves along a straight line. It turns out that the cycloid is the fastest path between two points under the conditions mentioned above.

@@OscarLangleySoryu In Trek's universe, they did attempt to address the universal translator limitation. TNGs episode Darmok (S5, Ep 2). But I digress. 🙂 Within Earth cultures, using language databases, I think a Trek universal translator scenario where one's words are instantaneously translated thru an app and/or devices allowing for (mostly) seamless conversations is almost there. I say mostly because there still might be situations when some meanings are lost in translation.

I want to know if the perception of the passage of time is relative according to velocity and gravity, how do we measure the age of the universe? From whose perspective?

The metaphysics of the universe is the probability for survival the form bestows upon the species. Whatever works, survived, whatever works faster dominates, whatever works efficiently takes over.

I have a question about the cosmic microwave background, how do we know that that phenomenon isn't from the big bang but actually light from distant galaxies extremely stretched out due to red shifting?

On the moon, with no atmosphere, does the most efficient path of ascent more closely approximate the Brachistochrone curve? Or, should you launch horizontally at a tangent and then keep changing the angle to match the tangent at the new altitude?

About the dream, There is also another factor that your mind also might cause your dream to happen in real life. You have a vivid dream and in that dream you make your opponent mad and he will punch you; now in real life you happened to be in a same situation and your mind remembers the dream and make you act in a way that your opponent might punch you

I want people to notice how easily they discount that one guy's lived experience, even suggesting that he can't trust his memory of his dream rather than even admitting the possibility that there may be something that science can't explain or that something supernatural was going on there. I think that's important to note, because scientists have many answers but not all the answers, so you have to trust yourself and what you sense to some degree in spite of all else.

About the time discussion: if nothing would move, not even an atom, not even photons, not even electrons, no energy moving between elements, no sting moving, so there is no movement and no change at all, how would we know, if time exists?
