Quantum Physics 123: Monday 3 October

[The Doctor fairly BOUNCES into class this morning, wearing one of his typical brown pin-striped suits. He looks almost too cheerful, but is genuine.]

Hello all--please turn in your homework, synopsising last week's discussion. Mr Gaeta--your homework from last week is late, please get it to me as soon as possible. And has anyone found Mr Sark yet?

Today, we're going to discuss the possibility of inter-universal travel. Using the principles of quantum physics, we've determined that it is, in fact, possible to travel in time and space, but only within one's own universe.
So how do we explain the existence of a place such as this? [gestures around him to the school] How do we explain interactions with versions of ourselves that I don't REMEMBER with the mysterious 'dopplegaengers' about? That latter question seems to be on everyone's mind.

No homework for Wednesday. I just want a good discussion.

Earth as a rest stop? Heh. Given the unusual nature of this school, the walks of life that are...walking around inside and outside, I'd guess that this is some kind of crossroads for each of us our homes. Also, given that the scientists on this planet have yet to discover any means of time travel makes me more apt to say this is a crossroads planet, a stopping point where people pass through and leave by their own means.

So... makes me wonder if it's even possible to talk about laws of the universe when we aren't really sure what universe we're in.

Probably not. If I ever get to time travel, I better not forget my towel. And if the laws of the universe are as complex as I think they are, we'll probably never what's the real universe and what're just stops on the way.

Forget your... towel? *furrowed brow*

Yeah, it's kind of like always wearing clean underwear because you never know what's going to happen on any given day.
