Have you considered the fact that there can be an infinite amount of universes, and all are different, even if there are only one atom apart?

Although huge, I wouldn't say infinite.

Imagine every particle of the universe in every possible position. Incredibly huge number but still finite.

Now imagine every vector possible for each particle huge again but not infinite.

continue doing this with each variable and multiply.

You would get an incredibly huge number but it would not be infinite.

The reason why the positions of the particles and the vectors of the particles is not infinite is because of the "grain" of space, the Planck length. This gives the universe a sort of grid between which coordinates there is nothing.

For starters I'm sounding triumphant.

nothing ruined whatsover. I'm new, people don't know my sense of humor yet..obviously

Is that your sixth sense?

I know that this thread is old as heck but I did not see it until now.

I have a theory that the upper dimensions that are described in that video would correspond to real world things that we already understand we just never though of them as dimensions before. Like consciousness and probability. What else could they be?

As far as Time Travel is concerned, that all depends entirely on how you look at things. After all, in theory, time is a dimension just like the three that we know, which means that if we could come up with a way to map it, in theory we should be able to come up with a way to travel through it.

We are actually aware of at least 4 dimensions. We are aware of time because our brains have a mechanism called memory. Not every thing that we interact with including some animals have this ability. This gives us the sense that we are moving through time in a particular direction.

In theory, if we could travel at the speed of light then time would stop, but we can't. As far as travelling FORWARD in time, in theory if we could make everything ELSE travel at a speed approaching the speed of light, then we could move through time faster than the world around us (maybe we could just find some way to stop moving? After all, pretty much the entirety of the universe is in motion). Of course, that all requires putting a lot of faith in Einstein's thought experiments. It's exceedingly difficult (impossible?) to travel close enough to the speed of light to observe what happens at that speed, so who knows?

Light is always measured as the same speed relative to the observer. Motion is relative to another object. Speeding up everything around you to move in the opposite direction would be exactly the same as speeding yourself up.

For our intents and purposes though, yeah, time travel is impossible. Maybe we'll discover some sort of crazy wormhole technology (or that they just exist), and that will change all of that, but it won't be in my lifetime.

Einstein's laws do negate the possibility of accelerating to the speed of light but they do not forbid the existence of particles that are already going faster than light (tachyons). Although these have never been observed they would be going backward in time. Also, they do not forbid worm holes that would allow one to "travel" without going through "space" as we know it. So that you could get from point A to point B without traveling in-between those points in space. So far all just theoretical but not forbidden.

I'm trying to remember exactly how it worked, but I remember a paradox regarding this theory.

Suppose you have a set of identical twins. Separate them at birth, send one into a ultra high speed orbit (nearing speed of light) and bring him back 21 years later. He, by the theory, would have aged much slower, while the twin would age normally.

Obviously all theory, but kind of a cool paradox of sorts, Identical twins who appear to be several years different in age.

This is not really just theory. There was an experiment done where two super-accurate atomic clocks were synchronized and then one of them was flown around the world for a while in a plane and the other stayed on the ground. When they reunited the clock on in the plane with the one that was on the ground, the one that had been on the plane was behind the other. Not by much but it was a measurable amount. If the plane were to travel faster for a longer period of time the clocks would be off by more.

I may have the exact details wrong, but that was the gist of the experiment. I think that they have repeated this with the space shuttle and/or satellites.

Dont know the protocall here but here's an editted version of the above which was way too wordy and poorly written. Sorry if this offends.

Leaves are turning but no where they blow.

Tho 'neath the tree this takes me so

Many places both far and wide.

It's up to you. You can decide

Where to go and what to discern

From me; it's endless what you can learn.

This sound to me like a library or reading

But if it's games you're prepared to play,

Not the game of life but instead you might say,

"Around again to the first crossing you come"

May make this riddle a lot easier for some.

I'm thinking board games like Monopoly and the quote here reminds me of the "take a ride on the Reading Railroad" (the first railroad crossing)

so my answer would be

reading

Maybe only marginally better but needed to do.... Thanks

u are all sort of ignorant. when going past the speed of light, u have infinite mass and no length.

How does that work?

it doesn't! time travel is impossible and if attempted, may cause mass destruction

They use to think that if you ran a 5 minute mile your heart would explode. Or that breaking the sound barrier was impossible.

Read the above posts I think that this discussion is more about though experiments of the type Einstein would do than why or why not it is impossible.

It is troubling that your first post on the den is to call people ignorant.

[Construe (for lack of a better title)]

it's what they call the old guy who smokes all the time

he was called the smoking man.

can + sir + us = Cancerous

we have a winner what do u think was the easiest clue

i hover over you at night

Here I'm thinking the moon or something

i myself am harmless but sometimes im considered a huge problem

This line makes me think of stress or worries that you would have when you are trying to sleep sometimes

im sometimes filled with sugar plumbs, others im filled with your worst fears

The sugar plums had me thinking of "The Night Before Christmas" so I was thinking visions dancing in the head, but then the worst fears makes me think of nightmares. This line probably was the one that decided it.

some consider me a projection of you, others a canvas of your thought

I am an amateur dream interpreter and I have heard this type of thing before.

All in all not a bad riddle.

Dying of thirst, and lips so dry.

Water is the object of this word’s eye.

Parched

This word describes what supposed to be sought.

Put them together and what have you got?

A piece of paper, containing, “The Black Dot.”

Now, Treasure Island, you would have to know,

To understand that last bit, though.

But, never worry, there is no need,

In that direction, at all, to proceed.

Parchment

I am something that you cannot reach.

Cannot be touched, like a figure of speech.

These two lines make me think of a vanishing point or the horizon

First thing you ask, two answers there lie.

I’m the one you can’t see with your eye.

The one of the two above the one that I cannot see would be the vanishing point, because a point cannot really be seen hweras the horizon a line could be seen(?).

edit: wrong and slow.

Lots of fresh faces, guessing at riddles,

To some of you, I’ve said very little.

Here’s a few lines, to say to you,

Hello, and welcome, as I should properly do.

But, not just a hi, a subject I seek,

Like something, just bought, shiny and sleek.

If you know me, because you are one,

You’ll know that you’re you, just to join in the fun.

Fresh and clean,

Like Simple Green,

All the fresh faces are happily seen.

Not my best riddle, but a slight attempt,

At saying hello with out contempt.

PS. Remember to use the spoilers on the left,

Write, write, write, with practice, you’ll be deft.

you're not a newbie?!

It must be knowledge

Gods preisous [sic] fruit (you know Adam and Eve and the snake and the tree.)

Brought by the ones we hate (Teachers bring it. I hate them especially spelling and grammar teachers.)

The faster you go the more you need this (The faster you go through school the more knowledge that you need!)

nailed it.

pressure works with every line.
