Peering forwards in time.

[July281995]

Well, this is my first post and I want to ask if my simulation would be correct.

 

Lets put a station near the sun, and one at the surface of the Earth. Let's use a new kind of webcam, one that uses Quantum Entanglement, in which it broadcasts the information and another recieves the information at the instance as the information was broadcasted. So they're having a discussion through the webcam then suddenly, the station near the sun explodes. The scientist in the Earth base peers through the telescope, only to find that it hasn't exploded. After 8 minutes of peering, they finally see the station explode. Is it possible that they peered forwards in time?

After thinking more thoroughly, you havn't seen forwards in time because light travel at a limit.

 

Example:

Point A and B is 5 ly away and point C is 5 ly away as also. A and B are parallel from eachother and C is and observing station. It forms a triangle. Point A and B explodes and observers at point A sees that their point explodes first and point b explodes 5 years later. Same goes with point B.

But at point C, 5 years later when both point's light reaches point C, they explode at the same time. Thus, the vision peering in time is just how perspectives fool your eyes.

 

Time to write 5-6 minutes.

QE does not allow one to broadcast information instantaneously.

It's bound to the limit ?

Well first of all, quantum entanglement cannot be used to transmit information faster than light, let alone instantaneously.

 

In fact, there isn't even any such thing as two events at different locations that are simultaneous in any absolute sense. It depends on frame of reference.

 

That said, I'd say that you were just seeing the present in your own rest reference frame. But it's difficult to give any concrete conclusions based physically impossible premises. There is weird cause and effect reversals that happen if you posit anything moving faster than light, for example.

Thanks! Since im 15, I only ask questions and jump to conclusions .

Interesting twist!:D
