Since God, by definition, is the creator of the whole
universe, he is the creator of time. I read that he created the heaven and earth, but not time. Then again, I remember Dune much better than the Bible. Better book. RB |

We know time travel is possiable if we can go faster than light.
No, we don't know this at all. It's just a theory and taught as such in any physics class....which you clearly never took let alone passed. I'm not hitting Josie, folks....he's doing it to himself! RB |

Boobsie we have flown atomic clocks on supersonic aircraft and they
run slower. Its a fact. Not some obscure article printed in an old copy of Omni magazine, BTW one of my favorate mags. This does not prove that time travel is possible for cripes sake. The idea of propelling a human back or forward through time is nothing but an idea and lightspeed does in allow "travel" through time, but only slows it. NASA makes no such statement about time travel of course! Josie's head is in a vise of bad facts. I think you must have been reading Starlog magazine! Or was it Famous Monsters of Filmland? RB |

Bob.... please refrain from making statements that appear for all intents
and purposes as dubious as the statements you wish to condemn. It's a "discussion"...... teat it as such! Joe is at least backing his statements with some data.... you on the other hand are acting like a bible thumping preacher calling down fire and brimstone to defend a position you can't be bothered to research...... that's truly pathetic Bob!

All very interesting, but how does this prove time-travel is possible. Clearly,
we are all time travelers, but we can only move in one direction. Special Relatively, proven for a long time, shows us that we can vary that rate somewhat, but the concept is only truly meaningful if we can go back in time. "Joe" wrote in message om...

RB It's been proven, and will be proven again next month boobie. After many years of planning, design, testing and delays, NASA's Gravity Probe B mission is slated to launch from Vandenberg Air Force Base in California on Monday April 19, 2004 at 12:01 pm Central time. This revolutionary mission, with Stanford University as prime contractor, has been designed to test two cornerstone effects of Albert Einstein's General Theory of Relativity. The mission is managed by NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center and it has had a long and rocky road to travel before it ever was to be mounted on its Delta II booster on the launch pad. The Gravity Probe B (GP-B) mission, once it reaches its 400-mile high polar orbit, will be used to measure how space and time are warped by the presence of the Earth. The GP-B mission is the culmination of one of the greatest technical challenges ever undertaken in the history of space exploration and has been decades in the making. In 1959, physicists at Stanford University first proposed launching a satellite to test relativity. In 1964, NASA and the Department of Defense started funding the development of key technologies to make this mission possible. In 1976, the Gravity Probe A was launched on a nearly 2-hour flight from Wallops Island, VA and used a MASER atomic clock to demonstrate that time changed as it rose to weaker levels of gravity. The GP-A returned valuable data as it rose to 6200 miles above the Earth and then plummeted into the Atlantic Ocean. This set the stage for the more ambitious GP-B mission, which was first defined in 1982, with the basic design of the instrumentation from that study the same 22 years later. The GP-B instrument assembly, which was developed by Stanford University, consists of a block of fused quartz containing four ultra precise gyroscopes and a lead proof mass all bonded to a fused quartz telescope. This telescope will be trained on the steady guide star IM Pegasi for the duration of the mission and will be the calibration standard for the gyroscopes. The instrument package is housed in a giant thermos bottle, called a dewar, containing 613 gallons of superfluid, super cold liquid helium that will keep the package cooled to 2 degrees above absolute zero (minus 455 degrees Fahrenheit) for the duration of the mission. The gyroscopes are the size of Ping-Pong balls and made from fused quartz. A coating of niobium allows the gyroscopes to become superconductors at the dewar temperatures and enables them to be levitated and spun at 10,000 rpm. This super cooled instrument assembly sits inside a vacuum bottle at a pressure that is 10 times lower than the pressure outside the spacecraft in the near vacuum of Earth orbit. This allows for the gyroscopes to be maintained in an environment that will not disturb their operation and will be so perfect that they will be able to measure the Earth's effect on them. Super sensitive magnetometers will be able to measure the gyroscopes spin and orientation and any changes they might feel.

Im not slapping boobsie folks, he slappin himself. No wonder his forehead is so flat. Joe |

Einstien came up with the theory not me boobsie.
Oh...now it's a theory? I thought it was "fact?" Uh oh! RB |

Dune was a good book, but the bible is the best seller ever.
Actually, many books have outsold the bible in the same time frame. The Bible has been out a long, long time which is it's only claim on the BSL. Oh boy, Josie. You've come up empty on every point. It's like a massacre! By now you should have been right about SOMETHING! You defy the odds. RB |
