yes, i sorta got an inkling about that too in my thinking, time travel i mean... i think it is a very fraught potential though
as for "aether" (eether) if you take my model, that it's a kind of energetic substance that surrounds matter, then it isn't the same aether that is the matrix of space and time
that is a separate thing
Yes. It is not the matrix of spacetime itself, but a property of it.
When we say that "there is zero-point energy (a source of electrons, a "huge cloud" if you will) everywhere", where is this "everywhere" located exactly? This "everywhere" is not constant, it fluctuates, it varies and it can be measured.
Space(time) = "everywhere".
Gravity = gradient in ether's density/pressure.
Zero point energy = extraction of energy from this fluid variable ether.
Therefore the less mass, the more energy available for extraction by this method (ZPE).
This is why I believe that interstellar travel is far easier than currently believed, because the amounts of energy available in the interstellar medium (from its "vacuum") are immense in comparison to what we're used to deal with here on Earth. Because there is where all the ether is concentrated and therefore ZPE becomes immensely more abundant.
yeah it's not even really zero point energy, it's energy in a state of ... what is the word for when things are pulled in both directions? tension! yes, space around matter is in a state of tension and this energy is more than enough to propel any small object to lightspeed or better
anyway... i am also convinced that our ancient ancestors, the atlanteans, already went off to the direction of Taurus and have already long settled several planets around the stars nearby what we call Pleiades, and they got that name because they went there (sons but mostly daughters of Atlas, second and most legendary king of Atlantis) Elektra, Taygeta, Merope, etc etc
Possibly, because the time it takes for a sufficiently advanced civilization to develop a technology like this is just a couple of centuries. Like literally, two hundred years, if we are to believe what we see on the news about UAP's. And there have been advanced civilizations in the past.
Now, in relation to zero-point energy, they call it that, again, only to a property of an underlying fluid, that I prefer to call "ether" (they call it "quantum field").
They spend millions and billions per year trying to find more new quantum "particles", pretending to understand matter better that way.
The reality is that there are no particles at all.
It's always the same fluid vibrating at different frequencies in different directions, creating different kinds of waves.
One fluid vibrating and forming a finite number of individual waves that in turn form what we call "the visible universe".
Now, take that thought with you, keep it in mind, think about it for a while, and then try to use it to better understand your own intuitive knowledge.
Because that tension between "particles" that you perceive, I posit, is in reality the total lack thereof.
hm well, it is a tension, but it's not particles, it's energy that is traveling back and forth in harmony so you can't detect it, every up has an equal down
but it's far more than required to warp from here to another arm of the galaxy in a matter of hours maybe, subjective travel time
i dunno about reverse time, i think that it can be *seen* but it can't be intervened upon, i'm sure you understand the causality paradoxes
the universe has iron clad laws, and they are good, and we are patterns of information, so we are essentially eternal
information has a zero cost of transit, between resonant vessels
it may well be that the fluid upon which we vibrate is infinitely divisible, but the vibrations that define our physical being are definitely finite and have an atomic level of detail
but it's like you say, those are just ripples on the water
eternity is where we are, all the time, looking in one direction at this time, but some day soon we will be thrown out of this flatland and see the real thing
Yes. According to what I've read it's 3 weeks from one extreme of the known universe to its opposite.
Ah, yes, information, that sounds about right!
Yes, it's infinitely divisible and fungible! Correct!
👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏
Very clearly put, thank you!
yes, actually, as to reversing time... Phillip K Dick wrote a great novel Counterclock World about it, and honestly i feel i need to read it at least two more times before i'd get it
in the Apocalypse of Yajnavalkya they talk about this, and how the right side of our brains is tuned into this reverse causality, and i have personally sensed its presence crossing through the normal forward flow, like watching ... well it was people dancing,,, like watching a video in reverse, where somehow i knew where they were going next the whole time, like i was watching a video in reverse, but also forward at the same time
the forward time makes sense
reverse time is impossibly ridiculously illogical
Yajnavalkya talks about this, and it's like the source of everything that exists, it is mind, in reverse time, and it makes no sense, but it's really just sense, backwards
i have some knowledge of cryptography and probability and essentially all that comes out of this awareness of the backwards is comedy, humor, absurdity, and a sense of eternity, because everything that goes forward is also going backward at the same time, and it has to be because you can't get something from nothing, without having un-something and something at the same time
i know that sooner or later we all will get to learn what it all means, and live in it more fully
i've dipped my toes in eternity several times and i wonder sometimes if i am afraid of it or if i'm just supposed to do this life thing and carry that weight and then afterwards it will all be reversed
i hope so
i've had so many memories flood back to me tonight, about my little cat friends, and bird friends, and human friends
i was thinking to myself, waww i haven't had any friends in a long time, but then i remember, i open up my door and hear the sound of thousands of canaries visiting me every day, and as the early light of dawn starts, i hear the warbling songs of the blackbirds, who only sing in secret, in public they are just screeching about how there is humans around, but in secret... oh, such beautiful songs... so strange the way they are on this rugged terrain, the ones i knew from bulgaria and england they were like little messengers, calling out a message ,and then their little bros would call back, and it echoed across the flat land
Ah, yes, they see to be more aware than us of the true nature of time. Animals and plants.
Faster than light travel creates some interesting paradoxes according to General Relativity, like information becoming capable of traveling back and forth in time.
This has become part of mainstream science now, and since the mind can travel faster than light I see no reason why we couldn't observe our own lives in retrospective from the future. Of course maybe not every mind would be able to do it, but intuition, for example, something that we all have experienced at least once in our lives, seems to be pretty close to what such phenomenon would look like.
i'm not sure if physical temporal discontinuity is possible, it doesn't fit with the forwards arrow of time which is in fact the forwards arrow of causality and reason, the basis of mind
the reverse temporal flow also exists, and must exist, but it is the basis of antimatter and it is where we will eventually get all our energy from
i think the thing about reverse time flux is that it is inherently the opposite of structured and logical
i highly recommend reading the book Counterclock World by Phillip K Dick to get some notion of how mangled a reverse time process looks in a narrative, and he was very clever in the way he crafted it, but i don't think it's literally feasible
PKD is really good at exploring the realm of mind though... if you can conceive it, probably it exists, in some way, some where, some time
i don't see the need for time travel, i'd rather just stick to being able to have spatial discontinuity (FTL travel and teleportation) we can already effectively do temporal forward discontinuity by getting closer to the speed of light, or entering a space with extreme high gravity (as depicted in Interstellar) but backwards just has this problem of being contrary to Mind
i think information maybe can move like this, because it has no causal structure to it, but matter does, matter has to come from somewhere, for some reason, this is ... yeah, Einstein said "God does not play dice" what he meant is something also like what Mises indirectly asserted via axiomatic logic - the laws of the universe are inexorable, some things are literally impossible.
but i'd be amused if it was not true, i'm just not gonna spend much time on it because it's contrary to the nature of Mind
You have the right mindset.
And yes, Phillip K. Dick was a genius.
Thanks for the book recommendation, I'm downloading it.
"flow my tears the policeman said" is another great one... in that one people take a drug and it changes reality
