And thats only the beginning.

However, what thenoose said is fairly accurate, which means that there must be many trillions of parallel existences depending on every single choice or possiblity that could take place.

Here is something that you will really like... Down the rabbit hole you go:

Ive watched both of yours videos and they are AWESOME esspecially the other one ... makes you think electrons are actually like humans ( they think :D )

Just an example of God at work on the "quantum level" :)

Here is the video for anyone who missed it:

i highly doubt a time machine would ever exist.

according to the laws of physics as they are known today in the academic community, it is only possible to travel forwards in time by travelling very close to the speed of light for an extended period of time.

to travel back in time, you would need a worm hole. we dont know enough about quantum gravity and the quantum world in general to know if worm holes exist or not; all we know is that there are black holes, some of which could theoretically be wormholes.

tell em about spooky action at a distance. that shit blew my mind. that's how heisenberg compensators work in star trek's teleporters, according to the tech advisor they had at the time.

It makes time travel possible.

Although it's really intriguing, I really don't think it's right... I mean... think about it. We were never meant to create something such as that. Imagine if somebody like Hitler got control of one of those, went back in time with some ridiculous future weapon, and was basically unstoppable? Lol it's possible and everybody would be fucked

I wouldn't say it's 100% impossible, it depends on your definition of time-travel.

For example, Back to the Future rules of time-travel:
Both ways, forward and back, instantaneous travel.

I do not believe this type of time-travel is possible, especially not to the past, maybe to the future using wormholes or some other cosmic phenomena but I believe it to be one way.

Now consider "The Time Machine" rules of time-travel:
One direction, not-instantaneous travel.

I can subscribe to this method because it has been done already on a small scale. Simply by changing the rate of the passage of time you can somewhat time-travel. This can be done simply by moving very, very fast. The faster you go the slower your "time" moves relative to space around you. I'd be like spending a month in "slow" time while a year has passed in "normal" time. The travel was not instantaneous but over the course of that month you traveled 11 months into the future.

This guy created one, but it only works from as far back as it was made, and you can only send information back in time.

Basically twists time.

Although it might be possible for someone to send something from the future that has access to it in its future existence.


i swear to god i drew plans for this with plasma and laser's in my old notebook in school and when i left school i left it in the locker and there it is in fruition sighs -_-
