European Space Agency Every time you look at the sky, you travel back in time... in a sense. When you look at a star which is 100,000 light-years away, you see it as it was 100,000 years ago. Its light has needed all that time to get to your eyes. So what does this star look like ânowâ? There is no way to know, unless you wait 100,000 years for when the light emitted at that moment will reach the Earth (but then it won't be ânowâ anymore!). The Sun is a closer example. The Sun is about 150 million kilometres away from the Earth, and the speed of light is about 300,000 kilometres per second. So the light coming from the Sun needs about eight minutes to reach the Earth. The result is that every time you look at the Sun, you see it as it was eight minutes ago. The same rule has to be applied to all other radiation we can detect and, in particular, the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) radiation that ESA's Planck satellite will study. The CMB is the cooled remnant of the first light that could ever travel freely throughout the Universe. This 'fossil' radiation, the furthest that any telescope can see, was released soon after the 'Big Bang', probably only 300 000 years after.

Extractions: Wrangell is a port on the Inside Passage, in southeast Alaska. Accessible only by air or sea, it's home for 2,300 friendly, welcoming people. But don't confuse the small town atmosphere with anything lacklustre. This vibrant community has a long history and international connections. Located near the mouth of the Stikine River and close to the Canadian border, the Tlingit people have been here for thousands of years. And there were regular "visits" the Tsimshian tribe, up from the south. Sometimes these were peaceful trading calls but other times Tsimshian were hostile raiders. According to the mythology of these ancient people, the Romeo-and-Juliet theme was alive and real in the prehistory of Wrangell: most of the warfare resulted from illicit love affairs. Eventually, the Tlingit established a secure trading post and they did business not only with other native peoples but also with Europeans, namely the Spanish, as far back as the 17th Century. In 1834, the Russians enforced their claim by erecting a fort here. Rule of the Czars only lasted for six years because, in 1840, the British leased what is now Wrangell county from Russia. The Stars and Stripes replaced the Union Jack when Seward purchased Alaska in 1867. Rich in natural resources, Wrangell went through three gold rushes, several forestry booms, and continued success in commercial and sport fishing. Now ecotourism is a big draw and Wrangell even has a USGA-rated course, Muskeg Meadows (tel. 907/874-GOLF), where there is no penalty for losing a golf ball to pesky ravens!
The Daily Flame #001 -- Travelling Back In Time Steve Jobs delivers the goods. Again, and again. travelling back in time. It's a pathetic truism The best technology usually loses to Steve Jobs' keynote at the Seybold publishing conference http://www.dailyflame.com/001-steve.html
Extractions: Archive September 1, 1998 Albion.com, San Francisco Issue #001 It's a pathetic truism: The best technology usually loses. Listening to Steve Jobs' keynote at the Seybold publishing conference today was like travelling back in time. Boom, it was 1990. Steve had a new company, NeXT Computer Inc., that was revolutionizing publishing. His slick black boxes were an organic evolution of the Macintosh publishing platform, but with a far sturdier operating system, an elegant interface, and a high-impact high-productivity programming environment. While Macintosh systems relied on printers for Postscript imaging, NeXT computers used Display Postscript, a powerful imaging system that controlled both printer output and the screen display. While Macintosh computers froze during file copies, the NeXTs had pre-emptive multi-tasking, allowing them to run several applications, even big file copies, at the same time. Programmers were making outrageous advances with their NeXTs, especially in the area of publishing: Folks like Tim Berners-Lee, who at the time was devising a nice little hypertext system he called the World Wide Web. If I had projected progress in publishing technology, say, from Seybold 1990 to Seybold 1998, I might have imagined photorealistic 3D displays, fiber-optic networking, powerful built-in workgroup capabilities, automated AI publication builders, digital paper, etc.

Extractions: Travelling back in time :: 04.29.01 travel Have you ever been back to a place you knew a long time ago? I am travelling this week and am in Northern Virginia. I went to high school here, learned to drive here, generally spent the better part of my teenage years here - with favorite hangouts, cool places to drive and play and all the sorts of things you do as a teenager. After college, I moved back here slightly farther out - it required a long drive through the countryside and farms before hitting the small town I lived in. I moved away to go to graduate school nine years ago and havent been back in the area for almost 5 years when I sold my townhouse.

Untitled Document Some scientists consider that travelling back in time is, and always will be, impossible, even though the same scientists think that travelling into the future http://mac.buf.kristianstad.se/Degeberga/Elevarbeten/SF/eng/time.html
Extractions: Time travels, parallel universes and so-called wormholes are a rather big part of the SF-genre. Some scientists consider that travelling back in time is, and always will be, impossible, even though the same scientists think that travelling into the future will be possible in just a few generations. The reason for this is that travelling back in time would break the cycle of causality (causes must happen before their consequences). Just imagine a time traveller that takes a journey back in time and by mistake kills his own father before he ever met the time travellers mother. Then the traveller cannot exist; but if he does not exist how can he kill his father? "If a man goes back in time and kills his father before being bred, then we have a consequence (the son) that does not only comes before the cause (his own breeding) but totally abolish the cause: we have a consequence without a cause"(FVSF). In a Science Fiction series on Swedish television a few years ago, called Time Trax , a future policeman hunts down criminals that escaped the future justice by fleeing back to the 1990'. The criminals do their very best, each one to themselves., to change the future (and thereby create an alternate universe). The police have to stop them before that happens and send them back to the future. To his help ha has an automatic carlock (one button stun, the other is used to "beam" the criminals back to the future) and a "credit card" (actually a supercomputer) named Thelma.
Extractions: September 2001 No 125 A new University of Leicester course offers students the opportunity to study history from the point of view of the people who lived it. The postgraduate qualifications Certificate, Diploma and MA in Towns, Cities and Societies - are an exciting development by the Centre for Urban History, one of Europes leading research centres, and the East Midlands Oral History Archive, which is based at the Centre. courses will explore how people lived and interacted in their communities, based on modules on 20th century community and cultural history. There is also an option on oral history that uses materials from the East Midlands Oral History Archive. Professor Richard Rodger, Director of the Centre for Urban History observed: "Telephones, faxes, email and text messaging have overtaken traditional written records, but 20th century historians have an invaluable resource in recorded memories of everyday experiences and events. We need to be more alert to this source in our teaching." The course is taught in the evenings at Vaughan College, Leicester, in partnership with the Universitys Institute of Lifelong Learning. It is open to candidates with qualifications in areas such as local government, personnel management, housing, financial services, surveying and social work, as well as those with degrees in relevant subject areas.
Time Travel - The Grandmother Paradox Paradox. It describes how a Time Travellers action when travelling back in time alters the Time Travellers future creating a paradox. http://www.cix.co.uk/~antcom/gp.html
Extractions: The Grandmother Paradox It describes how a Time Travellers action when travelling back in time alters the Time Travellers future creating a paradox. ....if you kill your grandmother then you would not be born, therefore you cannot travel to the past and kill your grandmother, so you would be born, so you could travel to the past and kill your grandmother.... It could be argued that at the moment he changes the past he should promptly disappear. After all this could be a logical termination of his timeline (and perhaps a good reason for people not to time travel). In the film however he simply begins to fade away represented by a photograph of himself with his brother and sister where they begin to loose parts of themselves. It is not until his parents fall in love and therefore his future birth is established that he returns to health. There are also other aspects of Time Travel used in the film. Marty returns to ten minutes before the time he left and so for ten minutes there is an overlap with two Martys and two time travel cars. Also because of events witnessed by Marty prior to his time travel trip namely the shooting of Dr Emmett he is able to warn him. Knowing this Dr Emmett wears a bullet-proof vest which saves his life.
Extractions: 5. Isn't tommorow April 1st? 'TIME-TRAVELER' BUSTED FOR INSIDER TRADING NEW YORK Federal investigators have arrested an enigmatic Wall Street wiz on insider-trading charges and incredibly, he claims to be a time-traveler from the year 2256! Sources at the Security and Exchange Commission confirm that 44-year-old Andrew Carlssin offered the bizarre explanation for his uncanny success in the stock market after being led off in handcuffs on January 28. "We don't believe this guy's story he's either a lunatic or a pathological liar," says an SEC insider. "But the fact is, with an initial investment of only $800, in two weeks' time he had a portfolio valued at over $350 million. Every trade he made capitalized on unexpected business developments, which simply can't be pure luck. "The only way he could pull it off is with illegal inside information. He's going to sit in a jail cell on Rikers Island until he agrees to give up his sources."
