Which is true as far as it goes. In this universe anyway. There have been recent experiments that prove we may live in more than one universe and up to as many as six at the same time. Einstein never accounted for those rules. :) I think Quantum Mechanics says there are an infinite number of universes. The fact that Einstein General Theory of Relativity does not agree with QM's is the reason physicists are looking for a Unified theory that would work on the grand scale and the atomic scale. I know the answer, but i am not telling. Newtonian physics exists in a two dimensional world - what Einstein did was extend Newtonian physics into three dimensions the third being time. In the Newtonian world, the laws were considered the same at any reference point in terms of time - it takes X time for Object A to travel to Object B or to put it another way, time is the same for all observers of an event no matter at which end of the observational platform one is observing from. Einstein proved that in fact, observers will and can experience time dilation depending on where the event is being observed from (think Doppler Shift) and a couple of other interesting effects such as length contraction and simultaneous relatively. Einstein didn't account for the possibility that instead of living in a three dimensional universe, we may actually live in a muti-dimensional universe. There have been several published experiments in which particles have been in two places at the same time and one of the more interesting ones, which has been duplicated, the particle appeared at it's destination before it left it's origin point. This would seem to indicate that there are more universes operating under more than Newtonian/Einsteinian laws than thought. Next time you want to ponder the universe, ponder this. Wormholes are theoritically possible -given enough power that is. It's pretty much strictly an engineering problem, not a problem with the theory. So, let's say you want to establish a worm hole from your living room to a high plateau on Omicron Persei 8 - a distance of one million light years. Now think about this - once the worm hole is established and you look through it, are you looking at the future or at the past? I'll wait. :) BTW, speaking Newton, how did the golf ball/base ball bat experiment go? 8) Well, as long as you asked, it went quite well. I proved conclusively that I can hit a golf ball further wtih a baseball bat than I can with a golf club. LOL! Most of the time I could also. -- A Harry Krause truism: "It's not a *baby* kicking, beautiful bride, it's just a fetus!" |
