DR. DAVID LEWIS ANDERSON - Time Travel: "Journey's into Time." EPISODE # 9 12/23/2009 8:00 PM - 2 hrs
David Lewis Anderson, Ph.D. is a physicist whose interests are in space-time physics, special relativity and global community service. Anderson received degrees in engineering, physics and philosophy. He was employed at a young age by the United States Air Force conducting advanced research and development at the Air Force Flight Test Center (AFFTC) at Edwards Air Force Base in the Mojave Desert. http://bit.ly/5CiSef

Introduction

Tonight, in a major disclosure event, the US time travel cover-up ends, as one of America’s early time-space explorers steps forward to reveal what he experienced and what he learned during the early years of time travel research and development by the United States government.

Our guest, Andrew D. Basiago, lawyer, writer, Mars researcher, and planetary whistle blower, brings his truth campaign to Coast-to-Coast AM, as he relates his childhood experiences in DARPA’s Project Pegasus, and shares with us the true history of the US time-space program.

Stay tuned, as tonight, we go in search of the past and the future, and discuss Project Pegasus, the real Philadelphia Experiment!.. http://www.projectpegasus.net/

2. 13 Year old boy Has Time Machine plan that works

This may be complete conjecture, but at least it's better than juvenile pranks:

One 13 year old boy , named Gentill Abdulla, has said that he has a time machine plan that is going to work. I have personally met him and he is an extremely bright boy. Gentill says that his ingenious plans can allow time travel to be possible.

He told me " I have done a lot of research on the areas of black holes, time travel, wormholes, magnetism, light, and most importantly gravity. I have devised an experiment that if done correctly could allow time travel . Here is the theory. If you had magnets in front of each other and had one beam of blue light that had been traveling for thousands of years and put that in the middle of these two magnets then turned on lasers on each magnet, and the side they are pointing makes the magnets face each other, and when the magnets are heated have eight smaller magnets on each magnet and make those magnets so that they would repel the big magnet.

Then move all these magnets toward the plastic magnet so it will compress it on all sides so it will become smaller than it's Schwarzschild radius. After this is done the magnets both should become black holes. (continues)

(uhh, so one of those beams of light you are applying has to have traveled for 1000 light years? Is the kid somehow focussing the light from another star system? And which one is the "plastic" magnet?)

Since they are facing each other their gravities will act and join these black holes together. There will still be a singularity but it will be magnetic. Now you make a device, that I have also made, that will split the singularity into a ring.This device that will make a hole in the singularity.

Since the string is no longer there the magnets will expand enough to make the singularity into ta ring. You will know if it works because you will be able to see the other side of the hole from the entrance. Since the beam of light is "old" and the light beam is what is creating the effect you will be able to go back to when that beam of light was first made.

So through this it will make a traversable wormhole. The negative energy really won't be negative energy because since the smaller magnets are repelling the singularity it will push it outward in the opposite way or just rotate the 2 magnets from the begining so you don't have that problem.Contact me at g_mobster2@yahoo.com" he has also told me that he has all the paperwork and schematics with him at all times. Gentill says that he is working on a new Grand unification theory and perpetual motion machine. http://www.ireport.com/docs/DOC-367891

Bully for Gentill. I Hope he's not just another kid lookiing for attention. Are you keeping your eye on this kid, Skynet? He might be holding the key.

Art Bell Interviews David Anderson on Coast to Coast AM Jan. 31, 2010

On Jan. 31, 2010 physicist Dr. David Anderson joined Art Bell for the entire 4-hour program Coast to Coast AM discussing the state of time technology from his research, as well as drawing from the work being done in other labs from around the world.

Dr. Anderson recapped his work from 2002, when he last appeared with Art on the show. At that juncture, his team had created small time warp fields that he said could accelerate time by 300% within the field, as well as reversing time. He described the initiation of a time warp field as quite spectacular to witness, "between the combinations of different chemical reagents and high energy lasers we use to excite or initiate a time warp field...a lot of light, a lot of energy."

He said that since 2002, the effects have increased by "two orders of magnitudes," both in time acceleration and retardation rates, saying that living organisms have been successfully tested in the warp fields. By regenerating "closed timelike curves" (bending spacetime so time loops back on itself) we're finding it "just as easy to move backwards in time as well as forward," Anderson explained...

Quantum Time Machine Lets You Travel to the Past Without Fear of Grandfather Paradox
http://www.popsci.com/node/47268/?cmpid=enews072910

The theory of finite possibilities caused by quantum teleportation "undoes" the basis of the T saga since Skynet seeks to undo JC's life. Apparently a slightly different reality is created every time a player is sent back. Therefore, linear concepts of time travel don't really exist. You can't really go back and create a paradox because all of reality has shifted to fill in the gap you created; it's like taking a pail of water from down river and pouring it back in upstream.

The grandfather paradox only exists if you believe in a single timeline. If you were to travel back in time and either accidentally or purposefully kill your grandfather, you'd only create an alternate time line in which you were never born. If you believe in a single time-line theory, then killing your grandfather would create an endless loop of traveling, killing, ceasing to exist, grandfather lives, existing, traveling, killing, ceasing to exist, etc.

I prefer the theory of creating an alternate time line at the point you kill your grandfather that would run parallel to the one you came from and would slowly become more different the further along the timeline you travel from the point in which the diversion occurred. You then have the problem of getting back to the time stream you came from at a point after you left, if that is your desire.

One more thought. I will believe time travel has actually been created, when they find the fossilized remants of an I-pod and a cell phone along with the fossilized remains of a modern human, from a layer of rock before the KT boundary. Do you find this valuable?

No ancient ICs yet, but would they survive several million years? You can believe the plastic casing wouldn't. What about this?

Pieces Out of Time

All over the world, enigmatic artifacts have been found that do not fit the accepted geologic or historical timeline. Do they offer a radically different view of our world? http://paranormal.about.com/library/weekly/aa072098.htm

10. Time travel experiment demonstrates how to avoid the grandfather parad

Time travel experiment demonstrates how to avoid the grandfather paradox (Update)

Among the many intriguing concepts in Einstein’s relativity theories is the idea of closed timelike curves (CTCs), which are paths in spacetime that return to their starting points. As such, CTCs offer the possibility of traveling back in time. But, as many science fiction films have addressed, time travel is full of potential paradoxes. Perhaps the most notable of these is the grandfather paradox, in which a time traveler goes back in time and kills her grandfather, preventing her own birth...

In the new theory, CTCs are required to behave like ideal quantum channels of the sort involved in teleportation. In this theory, self-consistent CTCs (those that don’t result in paradoxes) are postselected, and are called “P-CTCs.” As the scientists explain, this theory differs from the widely accepted quantum theory of CTCs proposed by physicist David Deutsch, in which a time traveler maintains self-consistency by traveling back into a different past than the one she remembers. In the P-CTC formulation, time travelers must travel to the past they remember.

Although postselecting CTCs may seem complicated, it can actually be investigated experimentally in laboratory simulations. By sending a “living” qubit (i.e., a bit in the state 1) a few billionths of a second back in time to try to “kill” its former self (i.e., flip to the state 0), the scientists show that only photons that don’t kill themselves can make the journey... http://www.physorg.com/news/2011-03-grandfather-paradox.html

Therefore, with infinite alternate (postselected) realities available to time travel, Skynet can only realistically try to terminate John and Sarah Connor within any number of P-CTCs while John and Sarah always live to outwit Skynet within it's own CTC.

Actually the grandfather paradox is a simplistic explanation on why time travel can’t happen rather than an explanation of why change can’t occur.

It works on a basic belief that changing an event in the past has consequences in the future which in turn affect the person making the change that cancels it all out, but if you “could” travel back in time you are already changing the future by being there even if you don’t do any meaningful change.
It also assumes that time, travels natively not only forward but backwards as well which by our understanding doesn’t happen.

13. Temporal cloaks adjust light's throttle to hide an event in time
Oct 15 2011, 7:37 PM EDT | Post edited: Oct 15 2011, 7:37 PM EDT
Researchers from Cornell University in Ithaca, N.Y., have demonstrated for the first time that it's possible to cloak a singular event in time, creating what has been described as a "history editor." In a feat of Einstein-inspired physics, Moti Fridman and his colleagues sent a beam of light traveling down an optical fiber and through a pair of so-called "time lenses." Between these two lenses, the researchers were able to briefly create a small bubble, or gap, in the flow of light. During that fleetingly brief moment, lasting only the tiniest fraction of a second, the gap functioned like a temporal hole, concealing the fact that a brief burst of light ever occurred...

Unlike spatial optical cloaking, which typically requires the use of metamaterials (specially created materials engineered to have specific optical properties), the temporal cloak designed by the researchers relies more on the fundamental properties of light and how it behaves under highly constrained space and time conditions. The area affected by the temporal cloak is a mere 6 millimeters long and can last only 20 trillionths of a second. The length of the cloaked area and the length of time it is able to function are tightly constrained—primarily by the extreme velocity of light. Cloaking for a longer duration would create turbulence in the system, essentially pulling back the curtain and hinting that an event had occurred. Also, to achieve any measurable macroscopic effects, an experiment of planetary and even interplanetary scales would be necessary.

http://www.physorg.com/news/2011-10-erasing-history-temporal-cloaks-adjust.html

I'm sure Skynet will send her minions into space to take care of those inter-planetary requirements.
