Great depiction. So at superluminal speeds (theoretically) space gradually becomes time and vice versa, time becomes space. But that looks like happening in some more exotic imaginary co-spacetime, after some luminal-singularity transitioning…
I wonder if, in a spaceship, at some point in the middle of accelerating—around geometric midpoint v=c•sqrt(2)/2 ≈ 70%c — we start noticing that spacelike features in spacetime are actually indistinguishable from, or at least very similar to, those of timelike features. Interesting.
George sees steeper slopes. He claims his mountain is Lorentz contracted horizontally (in the direction of the train motion).
Unless he’s in free fall together with his train from a very high bridge, in which case he’d claim the opposite: at one point the mountain actually starts shrinking vertically and flattens out all slopes… Briefly. 😳
I think we’re assuming some kind of homogeneity and anisotropy of the region of spacetime within which we make our observations about relativity of simultaneity. I’d question if these observations would change, and how exactly, in more complicated surroundings like, e.g. within the ergosphere or between the event horizons of a Kerr (rotating) black hole. Or even a charged hole maybe. Would the frame dragging effects somehow kick in and make the relativity of simultaneity effects get redistributed nonuniformly? And how exactly? This is probably one thing about physics that I might find stranger.
I’m skeptical. Is that equation going to have a finite number of degrees of freedom? Or countable even? Will that be provable or a NP-hard problem? Also, in my humble experience, most physical (or dynamical) systems exhibit chaotic behavior, in time, even the simplest ones. How about in a frame-dragged spacetime instead?
So even such an equation would exist, it would most probably only limit the space of possible solutions, but probably be not very good at specific predictions. Only time will tell. Fingers crossed.
Here is my shot at this:
1. Repeats: 6+1 mutant; Spacers: 6; Pathogen immunity : ~6
2. MDKKY SIGLD
3. 1369 amino acids; TGA opal stop codon
4. Four Cas1’s, together with two Cas2’s, form a stable heterohexameric complex that catalyzes spacer integration (via two transesterification reactions) and thus are responsible for the ability of the CRISPR immune system to adapt to new viral infections. Integrase that inserts the short DNA spacer fragments into the CRISPR array. To me LIGO is a door opener. A proof of concept that showcases that there is another universe waiting to be explored out there outside or in parallel to the electromagnetically detectable one.
The discovery makes me think of Galileo’s awe when first realizing that the small “stars” nearby Jupiter are actually its satellites.
Can’t wait to see what the minimum viable product will show after it starts operating in space in the years to come.
