Good for you commenting on the title alone! If you looked at the actual article you would know that one of the limitations is, that the furthest point you can reach going back in time is when the “time machine” was first activated.
@inkican Going back in time would require more energy than is available in the universe, for going faster than the speed of light, which is impossible. That's the basis in the theory (should be called 'law' by now) of relativity.
Backwards time travel would obviously interfere with causality in creating an alternative past, which would lead to a different present. So it's a good thing that it's physically impossible, despite what a desperate astrophysicist believes.
The idea is that you can go backwards in time by going faster than light. The speed of light is actually the speed of information itself - so if you could go faster than that, you’d be going backwards in time.
However, Einstein showed that nothing can accelerate to the speed of light. You’d need infinite energy to actually reach the speed of light, and infinite energy is assumed to not be possible.
I wonder if there is a meaningful difference between your example, and the technology with which the JWST uses to view light in the past. Rather, if the later is something we can use for time travel ;)
This is going to be very interesting, as Dune Messiah is a radically different book to Dune. It eschews lot of the action and heroics in favor of discussions of politics and statecraft. Very much a slow-burn compared to book I.
It’s about time they made a sequel. I saw the highway fight scene from the first time a sequel was in the works and honestly its a shame that there hasn’t been a Matrix 2 yet.
It got (quite unfairly imho) generally negative-to-horrible reviews and it did astoundingly bad box office in the US, but I really liked the film when I saw it during its original, brief theatrical run and in fact have been thinking of rewatching it again after all these years. Heck, it’s got Bill Murray!
I don’t understand this blog piece. There’s nothing in the actual article which explains why time is running out to see this film. (Feels like clickbait.)
I didn’t think The Fly belongs on that list. Just because a movie has someone with special abilities doesn’t make them superheroes. In The Fly, there’s no stopping crime at all in it, in fact he’s closer to a villain, but is more about him going insane. Dead Zone also doesn’t feel like a super hero movie, but he does at least get involved with saving people, so I guess it fits.
