Engineering Math, Period 2, 23 Oct '09
"Good morning," said Mohinder, from in front of a board littered with streams of equations. "Today we'll look at time travel, something that although not theoretically impossible, isn't possible. At least not in the here and now."
"Travelling into the future - if you achieve a speed close to that of light - " he said, starting to pass out a couple of handouts. "Is possible, due to time dilation. The passage of time, even the sequence of events - first this then that - is not constant, but depending on the reference of you, the observer." Mohinder continued pointing out relevent equations as he went into more detail.
"The alternative - travel to the past, is full of the possiblity of paradox even for those people who are homicidally inclined to their grandfathers." Moving on from paradoxes, Mohinder spoke briefly about wormholes, cosmic strings and light-speed travel, before finishing, "Now here's a reasonably plausible film about time-travel, Starter."
OCD is up!
