  • What will be the practical application of this discovery, say 100 years from now.

    Can time travel be a reality?
    Can age be reversed?

    Or these are just fancy scientific imagination?
    time cannot run backwards....but can be squeezed or elongated...beautifully explained in interstellar movie....
    regarding age its a biological things...not related to astrophysics...better to ask whther we can transfer our consciousness to a younger and healthier human being..then age factor would be no issue....
    Yupp.Actually time travel is a misunderstanding. Time is nothing but a relative quantity. At every instant of time, what changes is our consciousness, if we remember something about the past, we can very well reconstruct the same thing and relive the past. So its the consciousness that has to be traveled, time or space or any other future dimension shall just help us to visualize our consciousness.
    ..you are going into the domain of philosophy or psychology...which could be different from physics...

    True, consciousness is not yet a recognized entity in physics. :smiley:
    But who knows.
  • Its just about time to study the characteristics of gravitational waves. :yum:
    Space communication, Power and Energy transmission in space, maybe we can define and model the entire space-time continuum in a totally new way or perhaps vacuum could be a thing of past.
    Only time will tell, whether we have a competitor for the speed of light.
    we may have gravity-circuit boards instead of electronics ckt boards... hehe...gravitons travel at c speed ,faster than electrons ..so we would have faster communication...
  • btw @TonyStark ;)

    i haven't read much about it...but if he is right...if consciousness can be quantified or an entity of physics, then it opens up the possibility of transferring consciousness from one person to another...
  • @TonyStark u must have already seen this, but still thought of sharing . :mrgreen:

    or what if the consciousness is already being transferred from one to another and we have not yet found out a way to prove it?
    reincarnation, past lives ;)
    lol, these things are so exciting to talk. :mrgreen:
  • Guys its not that simple pl understand
  • @TonyStark u must have already seen this, but still thought of sharing . :mrgreen:
    can't play video////but may have seen long time ago ....really man, i am a fan of michio kaku...have followed almost all his videos..he is a visionary......and his explains in very simple manner

    just like electromagnetic induction, what if change in gravitational waves, induces a change in space and time? :scream:
    Like you said, accidents could be averted, teleportation can be possible.. damnnnnnnn :mrgreen:
