back to the future - is time travel possible?
DESCRIPTION
Is time travel possible? Do answer that, we look at Einstein's Theory of Relativity, the Speed of Light, the Universe, and the meaning of "God id Light".TRANSCRIPT

POINT 2WE MUST CONSIDER
“The Speed of Light”
186,000 Miles Per Second
9
Albert Einstein’s Theory of Relativity
TIME IS RELATIVE TO MOTIONTIME SPEEDS UP or SLOWS DOWN
DEPENDING ON
HOW FAST ONE THING IS MOVING RELATIVE TO ANOTHER THING.
TIME SLOWS DOWNAS A PERSON OR THING APPROACHES
THE SPEED OF LIGHT186,000 MPS
This effect is known as
“TIME DILATION”
10
DEMONSTRATION OF “TIME DILATION”
YOU TRAVEL IN SPACE AT 500 MPSYOU COME BACK 0.5 YEAR LATER YOUR TIMEYOU ARE 0.5 YEARS OLDEREVERYONE HERE IS 0.5007 YRS OLDER
YOU TRAVEL IN SPACE AT 170,000 MPSYOU COME BACK 10 YEARS LATER YOUR TIMEYOU ARE 10 YEARS OLDEREVERYONE HERE IS 20 YEARS OLDER
YOU TRAVEL IN SPACE AT 180,000 MPSYOU COME BACK 1 DAY LATER YOUR TIMEYOU ARE 1 DAY OLDEREVERYONE HERE IS 20 YEARS OLDER
YOU TRAVEL IN SPACE AT 186,000 MPSYOU COME BACK WHENEVER YOUR TIMEYOU ARE NOT ANY OLDERTIME HAS STOPPED FOR YOU AN ETERNAL NOW
11
POINT 3LET’S CONSIDER
“SPACE”
12
THE MILKY WAYAS SEEN FROM EARTH
13
THE MILKY WAY
14
THE MILKY WAY
Estimated 200 to 400 billion stars
15
DIAMETER THICKNESS100 TO 1
100,000 LIGHT YEARS
1,000 LIGHT YEARS
600,000 TRILLION MILES
6,000 TRILLION MILES
SIZE OF OUR MILKY WAY
16
GALAXIES
MANY GALAXIES form a CLUSTER
17THE MILKY WAY is in VIRGO SUPERCLUSTER
MANY CLUSTERS form a SUPERCLUSTER
18
“SPACE”The Universe
GALAXIES THE BUILDING BLOCKS OF THE UNIVERSE.
CLUSTER A GROUP OF GALAXIES 1,000 GALAXIES POSSIBLE
CLUSTERS CLUSTERS OF GALAXIES 100 CLUSTERS POSSIBLE
SUPERCLUSTERS CLUSTERS OF CLUSTERS OF GALAXIES
100s of millions of light-years
19
POINT 4LET’S COME BACK TO EARTH
CONSIDERWHAT WE
“SEE WITH OUR EYES”WITH RESPECT TO TIME
20
“WHAT WE SEE IN THIS ROOM”
IS
BECAUSE OF
LIGHT
“WHAT WE SEE ACROSS THE STREETIS
BECAUSE OF
LIGHT
21
100,000 LIGHT YEARS
600,000 TRILLION MILES
FOR LIGHT TO TRAVEL
FROM
JULES TO VERNE
WHO ARE STATIOMARY
IT TAKES
100,000 YEARS
“TRAVELING IN OUR MILKY WAY”
22
WHAT’S THE POINT?
IF JULES & VERNE ARE STILLANDJULES SEES VERNE
THEN JULES IS SEEING WHAT VERNE WAS 100,000 YEARS AGOAND VERNE IS NO LONGER THERE
THEREFOREJULES IS SEEING VERNE IN THE PAST
100,000 LIGHT YEARS
600,000 TRILLION MILES
23
WHAT’S THE POINT?
IF JULES & VERNE MOVE TO EACH OTHER AT THE SPEED OF LIGHTANDJULES SEES VERNE
THEN JULES IS SEEING WHAT VERNE IS NOWBECAUSETIME HAS STOPPED FOR THEM
THEREFOREJULES MEETS VERN IN 50,000 YEARSBUT THEY DO NOT AGEANDALL AROUND THEM IS CHANGEDBY 50,000 YEARS
100,000 LIGHT YEARS
600,000 TRILLION MILES
24
CONCLUSIONS TO THIS POINT
1. SPACE TRAVEL, at a very high rate of speed, is also TIME TRAVEL.THE SPACE TRAVELER travels INTO THE FUTURE without getting much older.
2. TIME STOPS at THE SPEED OF LIGHT.Therefore, TIME and LIGHT are running parallel and at 186,000 mps, time is no longer created for the traveler.
3. Our illustration shows us thatWe can SEE something that happened IN THE PAST, but that something may no longer exist by the time we see it.
4. “Therefore, no one can come from the future to meet us.”Because, in SPACE TRAVEL, by the time they see us, we are gone.
BUT5. If both travelers are moving at THE SPEED OF LIGHT towards each otherThen they will meet,
All else that was around them will be gone All around them will be changed.
25
OVERALL CONCLUSION
“Traveling Through Time:Is It Possible?”
NO in the context of MEETING someone from the past or the future.
NO in the context of SEEING yourself in the past or the future.
YES in the context of SEEING someone in the past, but they are gone.
YES when you travel at speeds approaching light speedyou will not age as fast as those you leave here on earth.
26
POINT 5
A BETTER QUESTION
A NECESSARY CONTEMPLATION
27
THE MILKY WAY
WE ARE NOT EVEN AN IDENTIFIABLE SPECK HERE
28THE MILKY WAY in VIRGO SUPERCLUSTER
WE ARE EVEN LESS HERE
29
WHAT ARE WE DOING HERE?TO ANSWER THAT QUESTION
CONTEMPLATEUS
ALMOST THE SMALLEST OF THE SMALLEST
IN THIS ROOMON THIS PLANET
IN AN EVER EXPANDING UNIVERSEIN A PRACTICALLY INFINITE UNIVERSE
30
NOSTALGIA - ABOUT THE PAST“Back To The Past”
CURIOSITY - ABOUT THE FUTURE“Into The Future”
WANTING NOW - TO BE DIFFERENT“Bring The Past Into The Present”
31
32
LIVING IN “THE NOW”
WE LIVE IN THE NOW.NOW separates PAST from PRESENT
The PAST occurred in a period of timeThe FUTURE will occur in a period of timeThe PRESENT (NOW) splits the PAST and PRESENT
I see the present now as a moving target where there is NO TIME or A FINITE ELEMENT OF TIME. It’s a dividing line
PAST has timeFUTURE has timeTHE PRESENT NOW divides them
We Can See THE PAST in our memoriesWe Can See THE PRESENT in our sightWe can only visualize THE FUTURE as to what it may look like. We don’t know for certain what it will be
33
1John 1:5
This is the message that we have heard from Him and announce to you,
ThatGod is light
and in him is no darkness
at all.
If time stops at the speed of lightThen God operates outside of time
God knows us outside of time
34
QUESTIONS ABOUT GOD
How can God be all knowing?
How can God be everywhere?
How can God see everything?
How can God know us before we were born?
How can God know the beginning and the end?
GOD IS LIGHT
35
A BETTER UNDERSTANDING OF GOD
If we believe that God is light and God operates outside of time
Then we can better understand ONE OF GOD’S NAMES “I AM THAT I AM”GOD IS ETERNAL ALWAYS WAS &
ALWAYS WILL BEBIBLE PHRASES like:
God is the ALPHA and the OMEGA the FIRST and the LAST
Before Abraham was, I Am
What Jesus did 2000 years ago, reaches out to us NOW
36
CAN WE TRAVEL THROUGH TIME?AT THE SPEED OF LIGHT?
The forces willdestroy any vehicle and us
before we even come close to the speed to required speed.
