Physicists Send Particles Of Light Into The Past Time Travel Into Past Has Been Proved Possible

And notice no stars for your comment?

What have you done proactive for the site?

Somehow i imagine if they did manage such a feat, it's a different past timeline rather than our own.

After all, nature has to have some means of retarding the occurrence of paradox, if time travel does turn out to be possible.

As many have said , it is a "simulation"

From the linked article

A group of scientists from the University of Queensland, Australia, have simulated how time-travelling photons might behave

The key words are
"Simulated"
"Might" (may)
When reading anything scientific base , one needs to ignore the glorified headline and really read deep

I wasn't being entirely serious, just made a joke about the op not editing the title after saying it was a simulation. I wrote a reply but deleted it because.. how do you reply to that? lol

Talking about the entire thread being off topic because the topic is deliberately wrong is becoming off topic.

It was a computer simulation has not actually been proven that it can occur. That would be the next step until then time travel is still stuck in the now.

Is there actually anything outside of now?

Time cannot appear outside of now.... time is a concept and all concepts arise presently.

And then by one experiment with paradox and strange loop feedback the entire Universe is destroyed by one photon breaking fundamental reality.

a reply to: dfnj2015

Would it matter?

Everything is being destroyed constantly............ at the same time it is created.

Now continually appears different.

And yet it takes the light from other stars in our universe billions of years to reach our current destination, just a thought.

a reply to: andy06shake

But the light appears now.

Shut your eyes outside on a cloudless night and then open them........ how long do you wsit for those pinpricks of light to appear?

I am glad they are thinking outside the 'fuzzy' quantum mechanics wormhole fixed entangled space-time box.

Well the simulation requires normal space-time to be folded back on to itself with a micro wormhole bridging the distance between the fold to manipulate the time disparity between the two moments in time. Two very different complex manipulations of reality that have been oversimplified in order to work. Let alone the complex calculations required to plot a future position to the present (or present to the past depending on your point of perception).

To give an example of what I mean. Suppose you sit still in front of your computer reading this thread for the past five minutes. Which sets a fairly fixed point and the simulation would have you move a few feet so you could appear beside your past self. Sounds simple enough. Except during that timeframe the Earth has rotated, made a short movement around the sun, the sun itself has moved within our arm of the galaxy, the galaxy has moved within the universe and the universe itself has slightly expanded assuming the Big Bang is true and still expanding. Our GPS coordinates have not changed our seated position during that five minute window but our universal position has. And we have no idea of extra dimensional influences affect our position in the universal or perceivable reality to aim the folds and wormhole. The distances between points in time may make it more complex as the absence of your future self (or addition of yourself in the present) can have other influences such as subtracted (or added) mass changing coordinates.

That goes beyond defeating the Grandfather Paradox. Your doubled self in the past can change your position in the future causing a miss in the targeting calculations. Making it dangerously impossible to return to your future’s present from the past.

There is also the infinite loop to consider. Each exact moment of your arrival would generate another future you so we might end up with an Agent Smith from the Matrix situation as reality is overtaken by replications of you squeezing out all room for other particles.

But on a quantum level, if the two points are entangled then none of that matters, right?

"But the light appears now."

When would you have it appear, last week? LoL

"Shut your eyes outside on a cloudless night and then open them........ how long do you wsit for those pinpricks of light to appear?"

They were there before i closed my eyes LoL

It's a simulation.

Obviously not a very good one..the entire premise does not occur and cannot...

Proof ?

Again more unprovable nonsense...my GOD the religious beliefs in science are reaching record levels.

It was only a simulation you buffoon. Therefore it uses assumptions and potentially incomplete knowledge.

Not for these Celebrity Women it Hasn't , and the Poor Men Married to them ............)

a reply to: FormOfTheLord

What has Transpired in " Our Recorded Universes Past " cannot Ever be Experienced Physically Again Unless a Person was Actually There when a Moment in that Particular Time Actually Happened . If Time Travel were EVER Possible for some Current Unknown Reason , then it could Only Go Back in Time to a Parallel Universe that you as an Individual Somehow Existed in IMO ............

a reply to: Itisnowagain

They are Not the " Same " Photons you Started with , they have Become Augmented in some way . This Theory is Incorrect IMO .
