Chapter 126 The fourth set of theories, space-time theory!
"Mr. Xu, please wait."
After watching the curvature navigation experiment, Xu Xiaobai took Lilith to go back, and Olev suddenly ran out of the research center.
"What's wrong?" Xu Xiaobai stopped and asked in confusion.
"Mr. Xu, can you talk to your chief scientist? I want to ask it for questions about time." Olev ran over and looked at Xu Xiaobai with sincere expectation.
"A question of time?"
Xu Xiaobai was stunned for a moment, then reacted and asked: "These guesses of super-light speed and time regressing, or the space wormholes returning to the past and going to the future?"
"Yes, that's the problem." Olev showed a embarrassed expression on his face.
Xu Xiaobai was speechless and suddenly asked: "You can enter the most cutting-edge scientific research center of human civilization, have you paid the money?"
“…”
Olev's expression was even more embarrassed, and he said helplessly and painfully: "I am biased towards experimental physics and am not that good at theoretical thinking experiments. I could figure this out before, but just after the curvature navigation was realized, I thought about this question again, and my mind became more and more confused and uncomprehensible."
Xu Xiaobai looked at Olev for a while. Perhaps because he was in the laboratory for a long time, Olev's hair and clothes were a little messy.
Xu Xiaobai reached out and patted Olev on the shoulder and said, "Take time to take a leave of absence to relieve your thinking. Can I answer this question? In the experiment just now, standing at the perspective of the test fighter itself, is its speed super-light speed?"
"No, that's just the time and space around it are moving."
Olev shook his head. During the curvature of the warship, the speed of the warship was minimal. It was mainly because the curvature of time and space drives the space-time where the warship is located to change and move.
It's like a small boat, the boat is moving, but compared to the people on the boat, they are standing or sitting and not moving, the speed is still, but the boat is moving with them.
"In the existing space wormhole theory, is the speed of a warship passing through a space wormhole super-light speed?"
"No." Olev still shook his head, this question is similar to curvature navigation.
"Time is relative, right?"
"Yes." Olev nodded. Special theory of relativity has proved that the speed will expand when the time is faster, and the faster the speed, the slower the time will be.
"Space is relative, right?"
"Yes." Special Relativity has also proved that the faster the space will shrink in the direction of movement, and the faster the speed, the smaller the space will be.
"In space and time, no matter it is starlight, me, you, planets, stars, all objects' movement speeds in time and space are combined, and the sum of the speed of light is always equal to the speed of light. Is this theory okay to understand?"
"No."
Olev replied that these are all knowledge in the theory of relativity. As a scientist and as the cornerstone of macro physics, these knowledges are essential to understand.
Time and space are inseparable wholes, but time and space are perpendicular to each other to form time and space.
In space and time, objects are equal to the speed of light, because the faster the speed, the slower the time, when the space speed reaches the speed of light, the time will stop, and the slower the speed, the faster the time will be. The combined combination of the two will always be the speed of light.
This is also why the photons born in the Big Bang can still be detected by people after billions of years. That is because at the speed of light, time has stopped on the photons.
"The university knowledge is still up."
Xu Xiaobai smiled and continued to ask: "It is meaningless to have not been observed and only exist in inference. Is this okay?"
"No."
"Why do you think about these questions? Who are you?"
"This..." Olev was stunned.
"Does the level 6 alien beast that brought us here through the space teleportation in an instant know?"
"I know." Olev nodded.
"Very good. In theoretical inference, space transmission is similar to curvature navigation. It does not move itself, but the time and space change and move."
Xu Xiaobai smiled and said, "Suppose we also have such a space transmission method. A 23-year-old citizen planned to confess his love to his lover tomorrow. He suddenly had a whim and drove a warship to a massive star 100 light-year away in the starry sky. He conveyed the message of "I love you" by covering up the light of the star, and then sent it back in space.
The speed of light is constant, and these light changes will arrive in 100 years. Just then, he confessed to his lover under the bright starry sky in the dark night. The light change information is synchronized with the time of the on-site confession. So, was he confessed now or 100 years ago?
If it was a confession made 100 years ago, and his grandfather had not been born yet, where did he confess?
If it is a confession made now, what will happen to the changes in the light of the 100-year sailing?"
"This..." Olev was still confused.
"Maybe you would say that time is expanding. He has passed by the galaxy. In fact, almost a hundred years have passed since time here, but it is just a moment for him.
But this is only aimed at the conventional superluminal speed. Whether it is curvature navigation, space wormholes, and space transmission, it is all in the inference that time and space are changing. The warships do not move, because time and space drive movement, so the time expansion effect does not exist on the warships.
Because the space wormholes and space transmission are both superluminal speed navigation, if the time expansion effect still exists, it is proved that it is moving itself. Based on the limit of the speed of light, the theory of relativity that remains unchanged will be overturned.
Therefore, just as quantum theory is pursued at the microscopic level of matter, conventional movement follows Sir Niu's classic theory, and macroscopic movement follows relativity.
Curvature navigation, space wormholes, and space teleportation are to pursue another theory of space-time, rather than the original theory of relativity.
In this set of space-time theory, time is only the expression of the movement of matter. The existence of matter reflects space, and the movement of matter expresses time.
In the theory of time and space, time is objective, and this objective is the movement of matter. When matter moves quickly, time will be fast. When matter moves slowly, time will be slow. But no matter what, time can only move forward and still, and it will never be able to retreat.
You should note that space-time bending and space-time distortion are different. Space-time bending is just a bend, and the space-time bending rate is still positive, but in space-time distortion, some space becomes negative.
This is the most important point in distinguishing between space-time theory and relativity theory.
In the theory of relativity, the space velocity and time flow velocity in objects in time and space are synthesized and the speed of time is always equal to the speed of light. When space is twisted at that time, time will regress. Even when space is twisted at that time, it forms the time-like closing curve mentioned by Einstein. We can directly shuttle time and space back to the past.
But this situation does not exist.
Just as matter pursues quantum theory at the microscopic level, relativity theory cannot adapt to the microscopic level, when space-time distortion occurs when space-time distortion occurs, that is, when time will regress in the prediction of relativity, the rules pursued by space-time are no longer relativity theory, but should be space-time theory.
In the theory of time and space, time is objective, and can only stop and move forward. There is no situation where time goes back to the past, and there is no situation where time travels to the future.
As a fourth-level civilization, we no longer only have three sets of theories: microscopic quantum theory, conventional Newtonian classical theory, and macroscopic relativity theory, but we need to add one more set of theories and space-time distorted space-time theory!
These four sets of theories will be the cornerstone of our current physical science!”
ps: It's a bit long, I can't put down the message. This chapter has been revised and there is no nap, because the mantis is hesitating whether to write it like this.
The theory of time and space has long been there, but the idea of whether to write about mantis so boldly has been hesitating. After all, this is prying the coffin board of the great scientist.
As the cornerstone of modern physics, the theory of relativity that has been tried and tested for a long time, I don’t know if the mantis will be sprayed to death. However, I hesitated and struggled for noon and would write it.
First, the ultra-light speed navigation has been realized in the plot. There must be an explanation about time. You cannot flirt with others and then go to them and ignore them directly.
Second, it’s better to write a science fiction novel, it’s better to write a better one. It’s not illegal for Mantis to write a novel.
Three, Mantis never believed in the phenomenon of time flowing back in the prophecy of relativity and time traveling back to the past, because from childhood to adulthood, there was no future. I told Mantis what the winning number of the next Double Color Ball in the next issue was. The protagonist of the novel "Study Super Computer" wrote n notes, and the descendants of Mantis did not send future technological products back to their ancestors.
So, write boldly and doubt boldly. Isn’t science just a cycle of progress in doubt and verification?
When the theory of relativity appeared, Newton's classical theory was overturned at a large-scale macro level, proved the curvature of time and space, proved the essence of gravity, drove Newton's classical theory out of the macro scale, recast the physical foundation, and allowed Einstein to ascend to the altar. He was indeed great.
When quantum theory emerged, it became a quantum demon and enveloped the entire physical world, causing the universe to fall into a debate between idealism and materialism. Boer and Einstein became enemies for decades. Most scientists could not believe that God was actually a gambler, playing dice.
However, the famous EPR experiment in 1982 accurately proved the theory of quantum theory. God is a gambler who plays dice every day, driving the theory of relativity that has been rampant for decades from the microscopic level.
The theory of time and space is just a conjecture, or a delusion of the mantis. The mantis has limited knowledge and cannot verify it from a mathematical level. If it can be verified, I will not write novels anymore. Instead, I should receive the prize on the Nobel Prize and be a celebrity forever.
The distortion of space-time in space-time theory is that when space is bent to space and time is reversed, it cannot be achieved according to the current technology of humans. This black hole that can achieve this level of space-time distortion in the universe cannot face observation and detection in a short period of time.
But this does not hinder speculation and imagination. Perhaps, when space was distorted, relativity theory was not necessarily unacceptable.
If I guessed by the mantis' delusion, and then let my descendants burn the newspapers of the relevant reports to me, it would be considered that I am very happy. If I didn't guess, it would be a fantasy that I am happy for now.
Science fiction is to boldly guess based on existing theories and physical phenomena. After all, imagination is not illegal.
