Re: Speed of Light

As I understood it, Gravity, under General Relativity and Special Relativity does not act instantly, infact I believe it's one of the main points of the whole dissertation.

As I understand it, Gravity, or Space-time distortion propagates at a measurable rate of c. That is Gravity "waves" would measure to be c.

Real quick bit on Causality, based on Guille's expression. What if the only time their is, is the one we exist in this moment. It is implied that if time was non-existent then everything would have happened already, however as Guille demonstrated this would violate Causality. Knowing that TOE is developed I would cease work on it, and assuming that it was project through deterministic calculation, that I discovered TOE, I would then violate what would be a constant of such a universe.

However that is only if the universe as a whole has a "clock". If we take the clock and place it within locality, such that this time here is happening now, and relative to that place this other place is happening then, but that place which is happening then is happening now relative to itself. We suddenly have "time" as a change of a given locality to another state, without violating Causality. Everything that happened, was going to happen, would happen, could happen, should happen, happened in that "moment".

Time is a function of the memory of a given state of consciousness. That the "past" existed is simply a memory. Can you measure the past from the present? You can infer details of the previous state, but without having measured exactly that moment you can not measure exactly the past.


Now as for super-luminal speeds? Not likely. However that doesn't say allot. Super-luminal speeds if they exist would always measure as c. We can't see faster than information gets to us. at super luminal speeds all that we know would cease. All insturmentation, known to man, relies on recieving light.
