MadScientist Posted December 15, 2004 Posted December 15, 2004 I just thought I'd throw this out. We can all visualise ourselves falling down an incredibly deep chasm, the feeling of falling to a certain death when we hit the rock hard floor that's waiting at the bottom of the chasm. But we're all falling down a deep chasm all the time, aren't we?? There's no way of stopping the fall and once we hit the bottom we're going to be dead. I tried to do something clever with it to help visualise time dilation. You can mark off every foot in the hole in the ground so you can work out your feet per seconds. We have clocks and watches that we can use to work out our speed through the hole called time too but that gives us our seconds per feet. And it's not just each of us that's individually falling through the hole called time, the entire universe is falling down it too. The effects of time dilation mean you can either overtake the rest of the universe or let it rush on ahead. Maybe someone else can add something to it or use it for something or..
ctc7752 Posted December 7, 2005 Posted December 7, 2005 The concept of falling while asleep is only your mind's way of preparing you for your future. Sometime in your life whatever you see in your dreams is possible but only as a simile of real life.
