[QUOTE="Harte, post: 21837, member: 443"] [b]Re: Time Travel at Speed of Light?[/b] <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE(\"kutibah1@pacbell.net\")</div> kutibah1, Special relativity (a trivial case of the general theory) is much much easier to understand but they are both bears. The general theory of relativity is quite deep. In the years after it was first put forward it was said that there were only 4 or 5 people on Earth that really understood it. The theory states that gravity is merely the result of the curvature of spacetime caused by a large mass. In other words, gravity does not deflect an object. An object moving through a gravitational field continues on a straight line path. The object seems to be deflected only because the spacetime through which it passes has been bent. From the mathematics and resulting predictions of the theory come calculations that show that time travel into the past is possible. What they don't show is what effect this has on causality. From the possible methods I've read about I gather that a powerful rotating gravitational field is required. One method has 2 massive (heavier that our sun) cylinders rotating in opposite directions. The time portal is between the cylinders. Another method is a supermassive rotating torus (kind of a cosmic doughnut or bagel). The torus rotates on an axis perpendicular to the plane defined (sort of ) by the center "hole". The time portal is in the hole, all you must do is fly through without being torn into a stream of base particles. I think the first time the possibility of travel into the past was established it involved utilizing a rotating black hole. Apparently if you have enough speed and approach at the right angle (with respect to the field, not the event horizon) you may be flung into the past.
