Have you seen Event Horizon? Bad things happen when you mess with physics :) It is, but it does raise the point of warping space so two distant points are one and the same, and who knows what the consequences could be, (aside from a horror plot for a movie). ![]() Member of the People Encouraging Niceness In Society club. ![]() |

The Laws of physics are as solid as a lump of rock . . . think about it :) |

So far, every time there is a problem with string theory, they add a few new dimensions. Reminds me of the celestial spheres of days gone by. There has to be a better explanation, but we have not found it yet. ![]() ![]() BOINC WIKI |

There has to be a better explanation, but we have not found it yet. I've always thought that. String theory really isn't necessary anyway.

There has to be a better explanation, but we have not found it yet. Not when it's already mentioned in both M-theory and General Relativity...

There has to be a better explanation, but we have not found it yet. No, not really. M-Theory is one of many string theories. String theories are attempts to reconcile the contradictions between General Relativity and Quantum Theory. Neither string theory in general nor M-Theory in particular are mentioned (or even imagined to exist) in Einstein's (1916) General Relativity. Pure mathematics is, in its way, the poetry of logical ideas. Albert Einstein |

So the best way for me to fold space around me is go total crazy munchin mince pies and plum pudings by the truckload to build up enough mass so that i can worm my way back in time to when i was a younger slim thing. is`nt causality a wonderfull thing. cos then i catch up with where i started to expand to the size of a red giant i can do it all over again, YIPPEEE, what and excuse for a pig out at christmass :¬)) Are you shure it works that way ?? string theory, err, that wot i use if my shoe laces break Einstein-Rosen Bridge - I hope they dont have a weight limit on it, otherwise they wont let a red giant sized taxi driver pass over it. |
