Go to Naut's Thoughts

- Go to Space and Time revisited once more...
Okay...
I have waited for this whole series to crystalize into a single whole, to try to absorb it all at once. Trouble is... Well, I am going to have to go blog on you to properly respond... It will be in my Universe blog in days to come. The thing is, this touches on a topic of great and long-term interest to me: The way in which Science is beginning to come around to perceiving things previously considered very UnScientific if for no other reason than that we had no way via Scientific Process to approach them. I'll get back to you on this...
In the meantime, this might interest you: http://www.bbc.com/earth/story/20160708-the-past-is-not-set-in-stone-so-we-may-be-able-to-change-it

I guess I am out of my league here with the time thing. it is interesting though but I don't fancy to travel through space and come back to find my friends got old, lived their life in what I thought was just a short time.

Goodness Naut if future humans at the end as we know it,do not understand everything we puzzle over, it does not appear that intelligence will move at a very fast rate.I know it is a job for you to try to explain to we who have hardly ever peered through a telescope, well some of your other followers have. I did wonder about time being different when one space traveled, but as you say the aging process would have taken place out in the stars well not quite that far. A good blog though interesting.

The lifespan of a star and its different phases has always intrigued me.

Thank you. Very fun reading. Now for some "out there" questions (LOL):
1) Is there any rule about the number of particles that may communicate with each other simultaneously, and if so, could they in theory communicate simultaneously from different points of origin, independently, or must they eminate from a common source, and would the reaction(s) to such communications be random, identical, or non-existant, in theory?
2) Is there the possibility of another dimensional ability to space travel, say from Point A to Point B, bypassing the known laws regarding the use of the speed of light and Time?
3) And, if one had traveled through space long enough and fast enough, in theory, could one return to an earth that has aged beyond one's known "time?"
And finally, if I say I'm older than dirt...I guess that just may be true (partically speaking)!
