#ThoughtExperiment: Many #Worldlets?

or in other words, fractions of #World, not the whole World. #TimeTraveler #theories often involve splitting or multiplying #universes … But if we think this through further, its scope might not be quite so universal as it is typically presented …

Aus.SocialKrononaut Moon 🌕 2025 Sep 07 (@KronoMoon_TotalLunarEclipse@aus.social)    #ThoughtExperiment: Many #Worldlets? or in other words, fractions of #World, not the whole World. #TimeTraveler #theories often involve splitting or multiplying #universes. Time Travel events divide #spacetime into two near-identical clones. Grandfather lives and does not, you did not meet yourself and then you did. But if we think this through further, its scope might not be quite so universal as it is typically presented. Take 3 heavenly bodies: Mother #Earth, the #AlphaCentauri triple star system (at 4+ light years away), and #Polaris, the #NorthStar (at 400+ light years away). Now we program our #TimeMachine to take us back one year (#retrograde) where we meet ourselves. Hi us guys! This all takes place in one year. There's the original us, there's us leaving the present, and there's us meeting ourselves a year earlier — standard #boilerplate #scifi #movie #script. Alpha Centauri will have to wait another 3 years before any of this information can get to there. This is related to the concept of a #lightcone which expands at the speed of light. This doesn't sound quite so much like a newborn twin universe, does it? Now what about the North Star? It will have to wait 433 years for news of our Time Travel event. And that's still pretty much in our tiny #celestial neighborhood. The point is that the effects of such events are largely localized and rapidly diluted as we move farther away. This still has its problems, but it doesn't quite feel like the whole universe dividing into two — maybe part of it. Possibilities are that in moving further out, the effects of a Time Travel incident may be 'blurred out', as are anomalous samples in the law of large numbers. 🔗 https://Wikipedia.org/wiki/Many-worlds_interpretation … #ManyWorlds 🔗 https://Wikipedia.org/wiki/Light_cone … #LightCone 🔗 https://Wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_travel#Absence_of_time_travelers_from_the_future … #TimeTravel 🔗 https://Wikipedia.org/wiki/Law_of_large_numbers … #LawOfLargeNumbers #TimeTravelTuesday #Quantum #Physics #Kronodon

Now we program our #TimeMachine to take us back one year (#retrograde) where we meet ourselves. Hi selves! This all takes place in one year. There's the original us, there's us leaving the present, and there's us meeting our past/original selves a year earlier — standard #boilerplate #scifi #movie #script.

Alpha Centauri will have to wait another 3 years before any of this information can get to there. This is related to the concept of a #lightcone which expands at the speed of light. This doesn't sound quite so much like birthing a twin universe, does it? Now what about the North Star? It will have to wait 433 years for news of our Time Travel event(s). And that's still pretty much in our tiny #celestial neighborhood.

The point is that the effects of such events are largely localized and rapidly diluted as we move farther away. This still has its paradoxical problems, but it doesn't quite feel like the whole universe dividing into two — maybe part of it (a universelet? a subuniverse?) Possibilities are that in moving further out in space-time, the effects of a Time Travel incident may be 'blurred out', as are anomalous numerical samples in the law of large #numbers. If one pours a cup of coffee into a lake, it doesn't change the color of the lake. There is a brief chaotic #glitch before it is no longer measurable.

It is tempting to imagine space-time as "stitching" itself back together. (Glitch & stitch?) Such speculations are related to #StephenHawking's "chronology protection conjecture" of 1992. And along with #blackholes, #entanglement, and other #quantum phenomena, if Time Travel is possible, then we should be looking for it at every scale. We could be surrounded by time-traveling particles everywhere all the #Time.

The #Krononaut #Moon Project's version 2.0 of "Try & Catch a #TimeTraveler" vastly improves upon earlier odds for successful contact — over previous attempts — by increasing two critical variables.

More #Dates: will occur during every #TotalLunarEclipse — next up on 2025 Mar 14 UTC 07:00, followed by two more in the next year.

More #Locations: will be wherever you are. #Welcome!

Time Traveler....I think someone from M'don found this piece I created years ago and made a home for it. A big THANK YOU! I believe art is timeless because what resonates for each person is so individual. Note to other artist, don't delete older work. It will always make someone HAPPY!

Here is the first of my new re-curring biweekly comic. CW: it contains a small drawing of a butt.

I hope you guys like this - it is the start of my preparation to release my longform traditional comic, and I hope I can build a bit of an audience that is interested in messy time travel stories with this.
