  • Is time travel possible? How can you time travel? Can we time travel? We ask all the time questions!
    Ron Mallett is a theoretical physicist who devoted his life to figuring out how to build a time machine. We discuss Einstein, Ron's life, and his discoveries. You can learn more about Ron from his book found here:
    tinyurl.com/okpbuzk
    There's also a great This American Life story about him:

      Wheezy, Thank you for this video, it was a key element to finding out how to change our universe with thought.
      See, the vid says that we all occupy our own universes
      Dr Richard Bertman wrote a book about the same
      He actually HEALED a broken fractured leg (His own) with this knowledge
      He imagined a future where his leg got better, and he got an unconcious response, which he detected cus he is awesome.
      He visualised a future in the next second where the fractured leg will become okay again, and thus he CREATED a new universe of the next moment.
      then he thought about the way in which he would walk to allow it to happen.
      So by ignoring the pain, visualising a universe where the leg isn't broken, he actually fixed his own broken leg.
      Thanks for the info man, im on the verge of becoming a real life Dr. Strange >:D

      ozone20rulez i wonder... if mass causes gravity causes time dilation, couldn't we just swap the equation and say time is slowed down by mass wich causes gravitiy? so there would be a very simple solution to what gravity is. its slowed down spacetime. and if i try to imagine this with the rubber-plane example where an object causes a dent, just imagine space within the dent to be more in the past then space on the undented surface. if i understand ron correctly he wants to wring spacetime like a wet towel because this wouldn't cause a hole in the spacetime-fabric. Anyway, the really interesting question to me at this point is: a) is time slowed down by mass and b) if so... why?

    I just wanna put a thank you out there for posting this ive never really out much thought into time travel and the possibility of it but this video made me seriously consider that an Ron has inspired me. Im very interested in this an look forward to reading his book. He should set up some kind of donation website if he hasnt already, I would definitely put something towards making his dream a realisation and giving him a jump start so that he is able to see all this come to some kind of fruition during his life time.
    Back to my original point though thank you :)

      What if an evil dictator gets control of such power? Isn't there enough torment here already? The problem is that people are too anxious about showing off such discoveries, but forget that there are evil ones who don't know the meaning of compassion or even empathy. What if Hilter or Charles Manson would've owned such technology? Look how Tesla was treated. I know how to make time travel possible, but there's no way that I will even hint toward the direction of a solution. It would be awesome if we all received benefit from such a contraption, but just take a good look at what was done with Einstein's discoveries. My goal would be to stop torment on this planet, but that's not everyone's goal. There are malevolent ones who would use it to make us all suffer even more than we already do. I think you can wait! I know I can wait for the day when such technology will be utilized the right way. For the purpose of freeing all of us!

    When an object accelerates (creating time dilation) it converges upon the source of the quantum field. This field is where all energy is interconnected and unified. Matter creates the phenomenon of forward time passage, which becomes divided into past, present and future. This is time as increments---time continually splits, moving from one moment to the next. There is a huge gulf between the time humans perceive and the timelessness of the quantum realm. To time travel, one has to enter into the field of timelessness (time stops when one reaches light speed) then all times and places are accessible from this matrix. Arrive at the confluence of all energy and time travel is feasible. The realm of the quantum is devoid of any resistance, and super states are possible. Getting a machine to converge upon the source of the quantum field would involve getting it to converge upon the wave source of its own energy. This would open the door to quantum super expression.

    • @livefire666
      @livefire666 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Time dilation only matters in a big way when you get near the speed of light. And as far as physics knows for sure is you can only slow down time to a near stand still not speed it up. Once you reach the speed of light time stops.

      @guitarttimman 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      @daniel gabriel Let me tell you a little story, which can, by the way, easily be verified by someone who has a lot of money, resources, and time. One day, when I was very young, it was the late 1980's, I was in Chicago, IL looking for employment. I happened upon an Italian restaurant. While in there, I over heard Jewish Harold and Michael Tellerino arguing. Harold was screaming at Michael saying, "It's impossible!" "It can't be done with qbasic because that is not a technically good enough programming language to do it!" Mike warned Harold about who it was he was trying to scream at, and Harold just looked at him and said, "I quit, " and stood up. I walked over to them, and I said, "I'm sorry to interrupt you Sir, but I can do it!" Mr.Tellerino gave me an odd look, and then he said, "who the F are you?" I replied, my name is Timothy Rubin Halcomb. He said, "So?" I told him that I was very good in mathematics and that I could figure out how to write a program that would work. Harold laughed at me. Mike told Harold to shut up! Mike looked at me and said, "Okay wise guy! I'll give you a chance! You have two weeks!" I said, "okay I can do it." He said, "you better do it because if you don't, " and he gave me a really scary look! He told me to come to 205 North Wells Street in Chicago, IL. I think it was 205. He said the name of his company is called MRA which stands for Municipal Revenue Associates. He informed me that he had computers, and that the only program he had was qbasic and that it was that language or nothing. I asked him if he had books that explain how the language works. He said he did. Two very small ones. The next morning I went to work. Here's what he wanted me to do: He said he had what he called a ghost parking ticket dilemma. He had thousands of sparse records of people who owed a lot of money for unpaid parking tickets, and that he wanted someone who could design a program that would sort them and tally up the totals for each and every person. For the first couple of days, it was tough, but by the end of the week I did it. I wrote an ingenious program for that day and time. Now that might not sound like much, but it was supposed be impossible to do for over 999 records because the records had to be set up in arrays. Well, what I did is utilize the random access function to ingeniously link that with arrays and then I used a bubble sort code to sort the records by address first. Why address? Well because there might be 100 Jeremiah Johnson(s) with different addresses right? But, each client formed a one to one relationship with each address. Does that make sense? To make a long story short! There was NO program in that language that could even come close to matching what I did! What I created was a sophisticated search program that was so phenomenal that I even think it's being used in AI today! I did that! Several years prior to that, I bet a guy 50 bucks that I could go to Purdue University and master calculus. He thought I was joking. That is, until I did it. But, I was uneducated. I barely knew how to read at that time. No college. I didn't even have a G.E.D.. I went back to school. I got a G.E.D., and then I attended Purdue University. I tested out of College Algebra and went straight into to Calculus. I mastered the subject in a month! I did that, and I can prove it! I NEVER make claims that I cant back up, and that's the truth! I CAN build a time machine, but it would take a lot of money and about three years to do it!

    Okay so bare with me while I try and describe my thought process here, by what I've just learned is it not technically possible to live forever, I mean it would be an awful existence but still liveable. So from the video I learned that the closer you are to an objects gravitational pull, the slower time becomes. So say you were to travel to the super massive black hole at the centre of the galaxy, the strongest gravitational pull in our environment, would time not become more and more slow the closer we get to the black hole? And time would continue to slow until it couldn't slow no more which is the point just before the singularity of a black hole, where we'd never actually experience being ripped apart by the black hole as time would eventually halt and we'd live forever?

    I have a question here, and I'd like to hear your opinion(s). If let's say time traveling (back) was possible (as in very many years and not just a split second or whatever, if even this will become possible), do you think that traveling back in time should be illegal? I mean, there's not much you can do about it except for maybe trying to stop those with that goal in mind to get money for it, but still. Should it be illegal if it ever becomes possible?

    How might one access the quantum field? There may be evidence from the meditation technique called hemi sync. With hemi sync, a person listens to wave forms that are slightly out of alignment, with one representing the right brain, and another representing the left brain. This stimulates the interconnection between hemispheres, via the corpus callosum, creating an altered state that is beneficial. I could see this principle applied to a material object, using some form of radiation. Beams of radiation (maybe something like an MRI) could be directed at an object, slightly out of phase with each other, and this could escalate as required. This would allow one to manipulate the basic quantum flow of an object, bringing the expression of its quantum flow to the surface. Once its flow has surfaced, it can be manipulated until it reaches its quantum signature source, the source of all its energy. This is very similar to a transporter beam seen in Star Trek TNG. The beam creates resonance with the object, sending it into a quantum state. It can then go anywhere, to any time or place. The transporter apparatus is thus a time machine and a teleportation device.

Let's further asume that each of this particles has a propability to decay and the decay would also disturb the sister particle. Would the slower particle therefore experiance a shorter halflife ?

      One thing not mentioned in this video is that time travel is only possible to the point of the time machine's existence, so time travel will only be possible to the point Mallett first turned the time machine on. So, unless he secretly already built the device and is just scamming people for money, there goes your idea!

    I always felt that Einstein's theories of relativity describes what is simply an illusion for the individual - that time has gone faster for everyone else.. Hence, the relative part in the theory's name. But there is nothing conceivable to explain going back in time - illusion or not.

    That's not a time machine, that's an ACME black hole. To make a time machine, all the components for the laser ring would have to be within the laser ring, including the powersource, fuel and hexaxis course plotting computer. Furthermore, it would require a laser sphere unless your goal is to uncontrollably drain things through a time pipe.

    If this is true, than light is really scary. It is not affected by gravitation at all (it leaves the Sun rather than gets pulled towards it) except for negative gravitation (black holes) and they also gravitate all by their own, very very little. So we need to concentrate light, into a black hole to take the black holes zero time and manipulate it until it goes backwards.
    And this is also a scary thought.

    • @CrystalsRandomVideos
      @CrystalsRandomVideos 10 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Light is affected by gravity, as shown in Einstein's Eclipse experiment. He showed that light bends around the moon during a lunar eclipse. Light has no mass, but it does have momentum.

    Hy Wheezy(Do I call you Wheezy? or Craig? I'll go with Wheezy),
    Theoretical physicist here. Although Mallett's idea is pretty neat, his proof that closed time-like curves appear is in contradiction to Hawking's theorem that it's impossible to create such curves in any finite portion of space-time. I think he gets out of the theorem by using a infinite line source in his model, which of course can not be done in practice.

  • @John77Doe
    @John77Doe 8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    That's a good conjecture that light influences time just the way that light influences gravity. Probably, it's more than a conjecture. General Relativity has a built in equivalence of mass and energy. But why should photons of light have a different affect on time than a stream of subatomic particles? Because mass has the force of gravity and can produce acceleration, mass affects time. But why should photons of light, which have momentum, affect time any differently?

    • @nacho74
      @nacho74 8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yes, light has momentum and dynamic mass ( but zero rest mass). So, as E=mc^2, light has energy, and energy/mass has an effect on the fabric of space time. The same is true for our known "solid" subatomic particles, the fermions. But light is more efficient than using sub atomic particles, especially for the twist.

    • @John77Doe
      @John77Doe 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      +nadjim73 I don't see why light would be more efficient in the twist. Because it is already traveling at light speed. Curving gravitational fields to bring two points in time closer together, particularly if the two points are very far apart on the time coordinate axis, should not be more energy efficient. Do you mean the math is simpler in setting up the GR equations because photons are at light speed?

    • @nacho74
      @nacho74 8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      John Doe Well, no but for example, getting emitted photons from the energy excitement of atoms does not have that much effort has shooting out electrons, capture them in a magnetic or electric field etc.. The photons does also interact with the electromagnetic field, in fact, it is obviously an electromagnetic wave. But a photon is more accurate and precise and moves easily from one mirror to the other.
