well, to summ it all up, watch the episode of red dwarf, season four i htink its in, its called Timeslides.
one charicter goes back intime, and well changes his history, so he will not be stuck with that shit job, he ends up being the ritchest man in england and well yeah, then another guy goes and stuffs it all up, and brings it back to normal.
but yesm kind of like Back to the future part II, he shows the diagram n the blackboard of a parell universe/timeline, because thay did one small mistake (well big in thiscase) and it screwed up the history.
but time travle, i dunno maybe, but i htink if we could, we should not go around stuffing it up.

Any of you guys ever heard of Stargate SG1? I know it might seem a little nerdy, but I like it. The Stargate reminds me of the Chronosphere.
|
I watch it, but thats not the point. The stargate, what Cornel Oneil and his other posse pass through is a warp in wich it is linked to other planets. It has nothing to do with time travel.
(sorry for the spelling)

yes, the money he owed was $573.50 i am also a big Stargate fan, infact, the original movie is on tonight here.
and that episode was called 1969. And here explanation was to do with the space-time continum, and how the gravity and the intense enegry that was relased send them back in time. they ended up in the gate room, so it looked exacally the same, because time was comming through the gate, and then once the gate was turned off, the room turned into the old missile silo that the gate room is based in. so while the gate was open, they wre back at the SGC, and when it closed they were at the butt end of a titan rocket about to have a test burn...
thats a cool episode, very cool one, lots of hippy clothes lol.
but yeah, i dunno about time travle, infact, i read in the paper on the train on the way home today, that after like 20 years, Steven Hawkings pulled out on his bet, he said that black holes did not leave any remains of anyhting they swollowed up. but he proved himself wrong this afternoon, in ireland at soem science thingy.

The future can be changed imo.... Because, if you think about it, the future hasnt happened yet, so it is "changed" by everything that happens. For example, I'm writing this post, which means that people will read this and most likely reply to it. But if I dont write this, then no one would read it and it would get no replies. I dont think that it is possible to jump to a part of the future, but it is possible to 'get there'. I'll explain: When you get close to the horizon of a black hole, time slows down. For you, time would go as normal and when/if you get away from it then it will seem that time has gone as normal. But for everyone who watched you, you have been going slower and slower. So for you, you may have been there for say, a few days, but for everyone else, you have been there for a few years. So you would be in your future, but their present.
I also think that it may be possible to go back in the past, this is just a theory of mine, but things can be positive and negative right? Like electricity. Lets say normal gravity is positive, and it attracts objects towards it. It must be somehow possible, to have a negative gravitational field. I dont think this actually exists anywhere since gravity is determined by mass (I'm pretty sure it is anyway), so the matter would be thrown away and the field would disappear. But lets say there is a way to make it last, and that it was very strong, like a black hole. I think it would probably be possible to go near the horizon of the white hole (lets call it that since it would be the opposite of a black hole), it should have the opposite effect to a black hole. In other words, when you come out, you should be in the past.
And about the things about God that I read here, I belive in God, and I also believe in the theory of evolution. If you think about it, where did all the matter that makes up the universe come from? It had to have a beginning, so I believe that God made the universe. But there is sufficient evidence to make me believe that things have changed due to natural selection.
Also, I've often thought about what was around before the universe existed. I think that there was another universe which existed before our universe. Think about it, if you believe in the 'Big Bang' then it must have been something similar to a black hole, because it was just a massive lump of matter, which exploded. But the ball of mass was created when a previous universe collapsed on itself due to the gravity of the contents of the universe, and created that ball of matter, which then exploded to create our universe.
Which brings me to another thing which I have recently thought about. I read in a newspaper a few days ago, that Prof. Hawkings has changed his view on black holes, and that they spew out their contents after a certain amount of time or something. This makes the Big Bang believeable for me. Since I think that the big bang must have been a black hole, or something similar, so I think that black holes spew out their contents, just like the big bang did which created our universe.
Theres something for you guys to think about, just like I have

I had no clue that a lot of people on this forum were stargate-SG1 fans, I thought I was nuts to watch it. How do you guys think about the new Stargate-SG1 Atlantis series??

Firefly is the best science fiction TV series, but the stupid executives at FOX cut it. You should rent some episodes on DVD if you can, the last one is incredibly good.

Even cooler then time travel - the double slit experiment.
Proving that quantum mechanics doesn't make a drop of sense, it's probably one of the more, if not THE most important scientific experiment of our time.

Time travel according to Einstein isn't possible. It was then proven that you can make subatomic particle's warp in and out of space time using fields of negative density (that is, stuff that weighs less than nothing). The prospects of negative energy are as follows. To produce a pulse of negative energy requires a followup pulse of positive energy, the longer the negative pulse, the longer the positive charge must be. Scientists have theorized that negative energy could be used for alot of "Star Trek" things, you could wrap yourself in a bubble of negative energy and travel faster than the speed of light inside said bubble. You could shoot a negative energy missile into a blackhole and cause it to collapse inwards on itself. You could make a bubble of negative energy and get a ray of light caught inside it, and have the ray touch its own trail causing time dialation's. Lot's of stuff.
Einstein said time travel was quite impossible, but time viewing might be probable. It's like this, acording to Einstein the universe is like a bedsheet streatched between 4 posts and made taught. now drop a bowling ball in the middle. the "valley" the ball makes represents gravity. Roll a marble by it and you will see it gets drawn to the bowling ball. if you can make something that has no mass, infinity speed and infinite energy collapse in on itself (light!), you would create a ripple in spacetime and could use the ripple to look over the curvature of space and end up looking right back at yourself, just a few years ahead.

No. You're wrong. It actually CONFIRMS quantum theory.

Well, yeah, it confirms that quantum mechanics works. Of course, it proves that it works in very interesting ways, like when you determine that light acts as a particle, it stops exhibiting characteristics of a wave.

Plus, you would need a quantum computer to calculate that much data, in which case you would be able to get an answer in basically zero time. [The computer would process all the information in no time at all]
