The thing I am most interested in is time travel. I would be real interested in connecting with people on mastodon that have same interests 👌🏾
I tried writing a book last year but lost interest. Need more inspiration 🙏🏿 #TimeTravelAuthors
@Jaden3#TimeTravel is related to faster-than-light #FTL travel from inside to outside the spacetime interval light cone. It makes be dizzy trying to interpret multiple world lines using this chart 👆🏼, but it can be done. Have fun!
@Jaden3 I enjoyed the “Time Patrol” stories by Poul Anderson, including the novel, “Shield of Time.” I’m not sure if this is where I first heard the idea of time-like vs. light-like vs. space-like trajectories, but if you are going to go #FTL then you need to understand the causal implications of messing with world lines!
Young physicist ‘squares the numbers’ on time travel
Paradox-free time travel is theoretically possible, according to the mathematical modelling of a prodigious University of Queensland undergraduate student
@nyrath Personally I think going backwards, there is a hard boundary because one is changing the total energy state in the system, similar to FTL as moving mass past the FTL barrier changes the total energy state, the system simply says nope. #TimeTravel#FTL
So FTL does not lead to time travel? This looks like something that is beyond the limits of my physics/maths to properly understand to know how valid it is. #physics#ftl#relativity#scifi
Relativistic Kill Vehicles are terrifying things, you don't see them until it's too late due to the speed they travel at. But for #Worldbuilding purposes, if one of your 'rule breakers' is #FTL comms, could you have a network of satellites deep in your star system as an early warning system?
Then defeat the RKV by just throwing anything in it's way which it hits at 90% the speed of light. #SciFi
so i did a meme* yesterday about how #fantasy is often mistaken for scifi
and i had an unfortunate epiphany...
feel free to boost, to debate (what we are here for) and let us pray that the wars to be fought over this wont be that much crueler than those fought in the reformation.
