It's the Weekend... How About a Little Time Travel?

Very interesting (if heady) article about bridging the gap between relativity and quantum mechanics. It appears a few scientists are ready to put the theory of retrocausality to the test.

Real-world experiments in time travel people. This could get bizarre.



Exciting!!!

You know, I've always felt that a world/universe this whacky HAD to be based on some sort of paradox.....oh retrocausality, you so crazy!

Owwww!!! My head hurts......must go back and stop myself from reading that...have beer.....clear head....think no thoughts.....information overload.....headphones....must....reach.....headp h......

Heheh. You were warned. Pretty interesting stuff, nonetheless. I think the real attraction and curiosity with regard to quantum physics is the direct correlation to human spirituality - and our undying quest to have our curiosities and big questions (why?) answered.

This would be a BIG step forward... or was that backward?

You're both right, it's a dessert topping and a floor wax!

I agree. Either way, it's amazing how the very fundamental particles of existence can have such a profound effect on, well existence. Particle physics, super-string theory, relativity.....good stuff man. Thanks for a great read.

heh, reminds me of that movie The Butterfly Effect.

Interesting stuff for sure

time travel is interesting, but pretty much everything else within quantum physics / astrophysics makes me snore. i don't care about the laws of the universe, if there are multiple universes, or how the universe began. however this is interesting; i just hope we don't accidentally collapse the world or something.
