I had a dream last night.If space and time are in fact inseparable,then to travel back in time you can (simply
)? travel back in space.Every instant of time has a corresponding place in space.The Earth travels in a path similar to a slinky:spirals,as does the sun and all other parts of the universe.So to go back to a certain space,we could see a certain point in time.It would be difficult to calculate for me,but a supercomputer or quantum computer would probably make child's play of it,keeping in mind that while calculating it is also moving.
If our telescopes were powerful enough,we could see the surface of distant planets at surface level.Likewise,if others had the same technology,they could see us as we were years ago.
Or does time travel at the speed of light,making time travel impossible unless moving at faster than C?
Imagine you are on a moving train, and looking out the window you see something interesting.
Can you leave the train and go back down the track to the spot you were when you saw it?Can you travel faster than the train and see what is ahead?
Crazy dreams I have sometimes,huh?
No Scotch,or Gentleman Jack involved before nap time.
