The direction of time.

redshift time does'nt flow in any direction its more like multiple ripples in a large pond you can start on one wave and end up on an entirely different one. Case in point you can go to the point in space earth occupied last week the earth itself is'nt there anymore in 3d space time but if you knew how to to negotiate the ripples in time caused by causality you can find the 4th point of reference you need to navigate to to the past also although much trickier if you can calculate the possible events of the next week you could navigate the future point of the earth effectively visiting the future.

I think that problem with your question, is that you are appling a "flow" to time, when there are a number of unique causal pre-factors, which bring about any event in time, one of which is the stress tensor energy of matter, depending on it specific density, and the amount of surrounding space that it might have an effect, has a unitary effect on any changes in time, so the rate at which time changes if directly affected, by any fundamental changes in the stress tensor. :eek:

Un-nailed, the problem is your point of origin in 3 dimensions (0). this value is an itinerate of the of 4 values, so that in relationship to the 4 dimensional universe, so to truly evaluate the size of the universe you have to think of the infinity of the "small" that is the "Point" or Zero point in which time begins, the smallest value in our reality is 0, so that in actuality, the universe is not flowing around us be is a zero point projection in every part of itself 0 + or - j(x, y, z, t) /ttiforum/images/graemlins/ooo.gif
 
Let me pose a question?, since the motion of all object in the universe are determined gravity, why isn't there a fundamental velocity for gravity itself?, or do you go by that standard assumption that it is this Godly enigmatic force without any real source of it's manifestation? /ttiforum/images/graemlins/smile.gif
 
To answer the second half of the question /ttiforum/images/graemlins/devil.gif, maybe all future time machines should also serve as space vehicles, HuH!! :D
 
Yo 5! (U don't mind if I use your nick, do U?)

Maybe, but only if you can provide a deterministic definition of quantum interactions. I believe that Mass is the deterministic manifestation of the quantum probability wave. And I believe that not only can it be computed, but it can be engineered.

Mathematically, one only needs to adopt a balanced, 3-dimensional tensor model of the measurements (metrics) that we call Mass, Space, and Time. I'd assume you would not argue with me that Space is clearly a 3-dimensional vector quantity, right? So if you agree with that, what is wrong with modeling both Mass and Time also as 3-dimensional vector quantities? If you do this, you end up with a nicely balanced, 3x3 tensor representation of physical energy...one that I call Massive SpaceTime!

Yo RmT the nick is solid!!, your assumption, is correct in the initial, but all deterministic 3x3 tensor decompose to a unique set of eigenvectors, under rotation of axis translation. and you take into account that Space is a 3d vector quantity without taking into account the influence of gravity, after the eliminatation of all other external fields, thus you are now dealing with a free fall reference frame within an unspecified Gribov's universe, and I know that the argument of modeling Mass and Space and Time as a 3d vector models of physical energy is sound, but in the presence of a uniformed gravitational field, the models primary components (it's matter field) is defined by Quantum constants namely g, h and c which define the changes in velocity and subsequently any changes in in Mass, Space and Time, so in short the energy expression is more clearly define by (E)delta v/v= m(gh/c2)2 (Einstein equation), which is 50 orders of magnitude squared less the any ratiional value, this would reduce Massive spacetime to Quantum spacetime /ttiforum/images/graemlins/smile.gif
 
Here is a thought, could the direction of time be just as relative as anything else. If space time is distorted by simple things like mass and excelleration then it is quite maliable and is easily bent. Time and gravity are realy the same thing, this universal flux that tugs at everything, an ethereal stream in which we are all caried. Ravity is simply that flux being redirected by a mass, as I understand it. So if gravity, the tug of excelleration, and the pull of time, all the same thing would they not all be governed by the same laws, we just need to know the frame of reference in which we are all being moved. If we know the refrence frame in which time exists, then we can alter it and travel backwards or forwards at will, in space and time, at whatever arbitrary speed we wish.
