How to Build a Time Machine
Time travel has long been a captivating concept in science fiction, but could it actually be real? In this deep dive, we explore the latest scientific theories and emerging technologies that suggest time travel might be more than just fantasy.
Theoretical Foundations of Time Travel
Dr. Eric, a physicist featured in the video, explains that time travel is theoretically possible according to modern physics. While the idea sounds like science fiction, the laws of physics do not forbid it. The challenge lies in moving from theory to practical application.
The Key Ingredient: Negative Mass
To build a time machine, one would first need a source of negative mass. This exotic form of matter has not yet been discovered or created in the lab, making it a major hurdle for physical time travel. However, scientists believe that negative mass could potentially be generated in controlled environments in the future.
Sending Information Back in Time with Quantum Computing
While physical time travel remains out of reach, there is progress in sending information backward in time. Quantum computing is opening new possibilities:
Quantum computers might allow messages to be transmitted across the fourth dimension (time).
This could lead to "informational wormholes" that act as temporal communication channels.
Combining quantum computing with AI may eventually enable the creation of physical time machines.
UFOs and Time Travel: A Fascinating Connection
The video discusses intriguing parallels between UFO phenomena and time travel technology:
Many UFO sightings report objects behaving in ways that defy Newtonian physics.
Phenomena such as luminous objects merging or disappearing resemble what a "time ship" might look like when changing direction in time.
Historical UFO reports share surprising similarities with modern accounts, suggesting possible time travel visitors.
Anthropologist Michael Masters even proposes that some famous UFO cases could be explained as encounters with time travelers.
Wormholes as Time Travel Gateways
Wormholes, theoretical tunnels through spacetime, are another promising avenue:
Artificially generated wormholes could connect different points in time.
To an outside observer, a wormhole might appear as a spherical or convex object.
Close encounters could feel like entering a strange interior space without passing through a door—similar to some UFO abduction reports.
The Porous Boundaries of Time
If time travel is theoretically possible, it implies that the boundaries between past, present, and future are more fluid than we realize. Humans constantly move forward through time, but with the right technology, moving backward or sideways could become achievable.
