It is useful for many reasons, as when light is slowed its energy increases due to increased inertia, there are a few theory's about using counter rotating slow light beams to create a space time "vortex" allowing a primitive form of time travel.

So I'm afraid that the speed of light is not always a constant.
OUCH!!! My head freakin hurts now!!!

picking up on 'time travel' (this is my theory with no evidence, i'm only 15 for god's sake) is that you are passing into another dimension and because of the infinate possibilities the earth would have been created so much later or earlier than in this dimension. Because when you time travelled surely there would be a piont in which you are not in a dimension but spread betwenn all of them, and because of the infinate possibilities in one dimension you would not be alive and it would surely f**k that dimension up. So you would be able to time travel however you would f**k up the space time continium

just an insane babble
 
LMAO!

hahahahahahaha you guys kill me! I saw this lone, unanswered post saying "Which is better, Mag or a cocker" and thought I'd reply with all the info anyone wants about the debate, adn then put the prophetic words "Loads of people will probably jump on this thread..." I had no idea!

:D

TechShock, unless you have an interest in quantum physics then don't bother to read on, just unsubscribe yourself from this thread from the "user settings page". Noone has anyhting more to say about mags and cockers. If you have a big enough budget to consider electro grips etc, then that's a whole other discusion (don't forget the Angel, bushey etc... Blagh, yuck I can't believe I just recomended anyhting that wasn't a cocker!).

Robbo, aren't you shooting an IR3 now? I guess that means buying more Broomsticks...


Lol

Robbo I hate you!

While we are on a cosmology kick... the concept of a singularity at the big bang is belived to be incorect. Get this before the big bang (if such a thing has meaning..., probably more correct to say that at t=0 the big bang event) the universe was infinitely big, and started to expand, to a bigger infinity.

This is what I am told by my cosmology lecturer. This solves some nasty cosmological problems such as Inflation (and I just thought that was Gordon Brown's problem...).

Someone mentioned talking about 11 dimensions... the latest I heard was that string theory dealt with 27 dimensions, but only 10 dimensional strings. But mathmaticians can deal with as many dimensions as you like (I think even non discrete values are possible).

Wow that was interesting

I still hate Robbo

10 Dimensional Strings... ahh so thats where I got the figure from

I thought they said 10 on the documentary I talked about earlier... memory not failing totally then

Thanks Richard :)

Oh yes. I just remembered a good way of getting your head around the idea of space/time having more than 4 dimensions

Imagine yourself in a three dimensional universe with only Length, Width and Time (a big sheet of paper if you like)

Now consider trying to explain the fourth dimension (depth) to an inhabitant of our hypothetical 3D Cosmos when they have absolutely no concept of it at all.

I like this thought experiment because it gives you an idea of how to think about multiple dimensions without immediate recourse to math. They may be there but it's tricky to draw a picture of one in your head :)
 
Always happy to help

BTW I do hope that documentary wasn't that awful thing with Sam niel (BBC's Space) if ti was then forget it all, it was all lies. It was very pretty, but talked about there only being hydrogen at the big bang... this is needless to say b***s**t there was nothing as coherent as baryonic matter (i.e Protons electrons and neutrons) at t=0

I hate badly informed documentaries

Richard

P.s. I saw that before I had done my physics module at Uni (am really a chemist) and still new it was crap.

So 'cockers or 'mags :D
