Extractions: Travelling back in time :: 04.29.01 travel Have you ever been back to a place you knew a long time ago? I am travelling this week and am in Northern Virginia. I went to high school here, learned to drive here, generally spent the better part of my teenage years here - with favorite hangouts, cool places to drive and play and all the sorts of things you do as a teenager. After college, I moved back here slightly farther out - it required a long drive through the countryside and farms before hitting the small town I lived in. I moved away to go to graduate school nine years ago and havent been back in the area for almost 5 years when I sold my townhouse.

Technical Difficulties from on Top of the Mountain Travelling back in time Hmmm. 1985, that's a pretty easy year to remember. I graduated from high school that year. (Man, I'm getting old.) Reagan had just crushed Mondale in the last presidential election (with largest electoral vote majority: 525 to 13). Reaganomics was on a role, and fading Presidency of Jimmy Carter was still a bad joke. Gas prices were down to under a dollar (on and off), and I was packing up my life into a toyota pickup to head down to LA for college. Computers was the area of study, though it was a far different field than today. Computing was either done on mainframes like the PDP-11 and its bigger brother the VAX 11/780, or this new thing called the microcomputer (best represented by the Apple 2, though there were rumblings about a new offering from IBM, called the IBM PC). Chip venders were pushing the envelope, integrating tens of thousands of transistors, producing such notables as the NS32032 (national), the Z8000 (zilog), the 68000 (motorola), and the 8086 (as well as its low cost trailer-park cousin the 8088 which was being used in the new IBM PC for price reasons). Local networking was accomplished with the high tech "serial line" which ran as fast as 9,600 baud under ideal conditions. Modems were used to connect to bulletin boards, usually at 300 baud, or at 1200 if you were really rich. The fax machine was still not very common, probably more people were still using telex. High tech wireless communication was alphanumeric paging, but forget about two way. War Games had come out about a year back, and had popularized much of this. The geek's magazine was
Extractions: September 2001 No 125 A new University of Leicester course offers students the opportunity to study history from the point of view of the people who lived it. The postgraduate qualifications Certificate, Diploma and MA in Towns, Cities and Societies - are an exciting development by the Centre for Urban History, one of Europes leading research centres, and the East Midlands Oral History Archive, which is based at the Centre. courses will explore how people lived and interacted in their communities, based on modules on 20th century community and cultural history. There is also an option on oral history that uses materials from the East Midlands Oral History Archive. Professor Richard Rodger, Director of the Centre for Urban History observed: "Telephones, faxes, email and text messaging have overtaken traditional written records, but 20th century historians have an invaluable resource in recorded memories of everyday experiences and events. We need to be more alert to this source in our teaching." The course is taught in the evenings at Vaughan College, Leicester, in partnership with the Universitys Institute of Lifelong Learning. It is open to candidates with qualifications in areas such as local government, personnel management, housing, financial services, surveying and social work, as well as those with degrees in relevant subject areas.
The Daily Flame #001 -- Travelling Back In Time travelling back in time. Steve with the iMac, courtesy of Apple It s a pathetictruism The best technology usually loses. Listening to Steve Jobs keynote http://www.dailyflame.com/001-steve.html
Extractions: Archive September 1, 1998 Albion.com, San Francisco Issue #001 It's a pathetic truism: The best technology usually loses. Listening to Steve Jobs' keynote at the Seybold publishing conference today was like travelling back in time. Boom, it was 1990. Steve had a new company, NeXT Computer Inc., that was revolutionizing publishing. His slick black boxes were an organic evolution of the Macintosh publishing platform, but with a far sturdier operating system, an elegant interface, and a high-impact high-productivity programming environment. While Macintosh systems relied on printers for Postscript imaging, NeXT computers used Display Postscript, a powerful imaging system that controlled both printer output and the screen display. While Macintosh computers froze during file copies, the NeXTs had pre-emptive multi-tasking, allowing them to run several applications, even big file copies, at the same time. Programmers were making outrageous advances with their NeXTs, especially in the area of publishing: Folks like Tim Berners-Lee, who at the time was devising a nice little hypertext system he called the World Wide Web. If I had projected progress in publishing technology, say, from Seybold 1990 to Seybold 1998, I might have imagined photorealistic 3D displays, fiber-optic networking, powerful built-in workgroup capabilities, automated AI publication builders, digital paper, etc.

Philosophy 3: Time Travel But this wouldn t be time travel. Sally wouldn t be travelling back and preventingher brother s death. Her brother will still be just as dead, back in http://www.princeton.edu/~jimpryor/courses/intro/notes/timetravel.html
Extractions: Time Travel Talk about travelling back in time to the past often runs into contradictions. For instance, here's a typical time-travel story... It's 1970. Bill starts out poor, but he's very savvy in business, so he is able to amass a fortune and build a huge business empire. His cut-throat tactics make many of his competitors, like Scott, miserable. In 2000 Scott dies a broken man. Scott's sister Sally hates Bill because of this. She's a brilliant scientist, so she builds a time machine and uses it to travel back to 1970. Sally steps out of the time machine and encounters Bill on the way to make his first business deal. Then she kills him, before he ever becomes rich. The way this story tells things, 1970 unfolds twice . The first time, Bill makes his deal and gets rich. The second time, Sally kills Bill and the deal never takes place. If we think of 1970 as a particular moment in time: then that story doesn't really make sense. How can a particular moment in time first happen one way, and then happen again, a different way? That would require that

Unsolved problems in physics Is time travel theoretically possible? Is it practically possible? If so, what are we to make of the time travel paradoxes , such as going back in time and killing one's own grandfather, etc.? special and general relativity , suggest that suitable geometries of spacetime , or certain types of motion in space , may allow time travel into the past and future if they themselves are possible. It has been confirmed that the effects of relativistic and gravitational time dilation can cause a traveller who starts at and returns to a point of origin that remains stationary, to arrive at a time farther in the future in that reference frame than their subjective elapsed time would indicate (a constrained form of time travel into the future). Often it is a plot device used in science fiction and many movies and television shows to set a character in a particular time parallel universes , and alternative history where some little event took place or did not take place, but causes large changes in the future.

Extractions: V) The tunnel effect Two professors, not related to each other, claim that they have sent a wave with a speed faster than light. According to Raymond Chiao from the university of Berkeley, who claims to have reached a speed of 1,7c it's impossible to send some information with the signal. Gunter Nimtz of the university of Koln (Germany) says his wave travelled at 4,7c and carried Mozart 40. The question here is not if it's possible to send something with that wave, it's interesting to know that something (an electro-magnetic wave) can move faster than light. If such a signal is able to do it under certain circumstances, maybe an object or a person can too. And maybe that object or that person can travel in time... Chiao and Nimtz call it the 'tunnelling' of an electro-magnetic signal. It comes down to sending an electro-magnetic signal through a special wave conductor. Although some scientists are sceptical about the results of these professors, nobody has proven their wrong yet. Whether they're right or wrong, when it could be technically possible to travel through time or send messages at a higher speed than c, some terrible problems would arise: the paradoxes! VI) Paradoxes In this chapter we assume that time travelling is possible.

Extractions: Because the time-bending factor on the surface of the earth is almost 1, time on earth passes almost as slow/fast as on places where no gravitation field exists. When we look at the formula for the time-bending factor by gravity , we notice that it becomes smaller when M is bigger or r is smaller. If M becomes that big and/or r that small, the time-bending factor would be = 0. So seen from the outside, it appears that time stands still. Someone in such a place would probably become mad (if possible there to live), because he would see time pass infinitely fast on the outside of his place (where there 's NO infinite gravity). In reality you can never pass the radius of Schwarzschild. If you would come that close to a black hole, you would be attracted with an enormous power and you'd be resolved molecularly. However, the image of your body would be seen forever on the edge of the black hole by an outsider, 'cause on the radius of Schwarzschild time stands still. Although you're resolved a long time ago, your image stays forever in the radius of Schwarzschild! This means we can look at ourselves in another way. Because time-bending is caused by gravity, we could see ourselves as time travellers. After all we are in the gravitation field of the earth. It's easy for us to travel to the future, it happens all the time! Going back in the past is a little bit more difficult....

News The physicist Amos Ori from Technion, the Israel Institute of Technology in Haifa, claims to have found the first realistic model of a time machine which can transport us into the past. That travelling through time into the future is possible has long been an accepted fact: not only are we all en route into the future at any given moment, but Einstein's theory of special relativity proves that time goes slower if you are moving at very high speed. If you take a journey on fast space ship, then when you come back to earth, time there will have passed faster than it did for you, and you effectively jump into the future (this phenomenon is known as time dilation and Plus will investigate it in detail in the forthcoming issue).

British Racing Green please! Shaun Inman: I imagine that traveling through time would be a lot like teleporting. If you didn't know the landscape of your destination there would always be that danger of materializing entirely or partially inside another physical object. With that in mind I would have to choose a hot-air balloon - not a whole lot of things to materialize into while up in the sky.

Extractions: Last updated: 2004-03-03 The Future The Immutable Past ... The possibility of travelling in time has come up in physics as a consequence of Einstein's general theory of relativity. A number of scenarios have been proposed so to how this can be done, the most popular of which is the use of wormholes. The physicists generally agree that the current theoretical understanding predicts time travelling as a real possibility, but from there the waters are parted. Some, such as Igor Novikov, believe that the experimental time machine is 'just around the corner' (some fifty years, perhaps), while others, such as Stephen Hawking, thinks that there ought to be some kind of natural law, or device, that prevents time travelling, and yet others, such as Holger Bech Nielsen, are taking a 'wait and see' position, claiming that time machines, if they are possible at all, will be something for a far future. The object of this section is, however, not to describe how physicists believe that travelling in time can be accomplished or of the long and extremely difficult debates about time travelling, the nature of time itself and other related topics, but rather to give a brief overview of the more prominient of the contending theories on how time travelling will affect time (perhaps I should have capitalised that), and to how cope with the paradox which is inherent in time-travelling: the time paradox.
