Dear Gus,
On a different subject, reading the comments about the reliability of the
mag, but not wanting to be nitpicky or awkward, I do agree it would be
nice to have a proof reader, were that possible. It is a shame when such
good work goes to waste.
And the teleporting data thing. I heard about that too, a fair while ago.
The crucial difference is that radio waves (and therefore data or
information) travel at around the speed of light. This means that data
can never be teleported from one place to another instantaneously through
radio. However, quantum theory suggests that some particles, for short
periods of time, can break the light barrier (which is, theoretically, the
fastest speed attainable in the Universe). This is due to the random
nature of sub-atomic particles: basically, they won't always obey the laws
of physics (everything goes crazy when you go down there). So, if you
could harness these particles, which are travelling faster than the speed
of light and therefore BACKWARDS in time, you could, theoretically, use
them to carry information. Now, the backwards bit is mainly a theoretical
point. If some information is transmitted and travels backwards in time
it can reach the receiver at the SAME TIME as when it was transmitted. It
could, also, be received before it was transmitted, so long as the
receiver was there at that time.
That's the theory. And it has, supposedly, been achieved. I think it was
part of the 1812 Overture which was supposed to have been transmitted, and
received (rather noisily), at the same time in the lab. But it was
suggested that music did not constitute information and therefore it was a
misleading experiment. I don't quite understand how music is anything
other than data or information, but I am more concerned with whether the
claims are reliable or even a hoax. But big things are possible. The
same thing can be done, theoretically, with matter itself, of course, but
these are only individual particles and for a human, or anything on our
scale, to be transmitted it would have to be seperated particle by
particle and then reconsituted. I find it difficult to believe this could
be achieved. Even if it could, it could not be used to go further back
than the time it ws invented, but instant teleportation of humans would be
possible. Incidentally, if you're the kind of person who believes those
kinds of things must have been done by someone, do some reading on the
Philadelphia Experiment of 1941. It sounds spurious to me but it was
supposed to have the same secrecy rating as the nuclear bomb - and how
fictional would that have sounded at the time?
The other thing which quantum theory allows for is the idea of twinned
particles. These are particles which are created together (I think) and
will therefore remain intertwined for as long as they exist. Then, when
they are seperated (even to the other side of the universe) one particle
will be affected by changes on the other. So, if I store my data in some
kind of binary code (like on a computer) I can then manipulate each
particle in my box of particles to represent this data. Te other
particles, however distant, will then change in EXACTLY the same way and
the information can be read. We then have instant data transmission which
could never be intercepted because they are the only linked
transmitter/receivers in the entire universe! That sounds a little more
practical then the experiment above so we'll see what happens in a few
decades time. Perhaps the instant 'sub-space' communications of sci-fi
will be with us.
Enough of my drivel.
Yours sincerely,
Ross Little
As I've said before, proof reading is a bit like quantium theory, good
idea but in practice..
