What if , the law of time is an absolute?

In summary, the law of physics is not always absolute, especially in places like the event horizon. Time travel, if it exists, does not rely on the law of physics but rather a different and unknown set of laws, possibly the Law of Time. However, we do not know what aspects of this law can be manipulated, assuming it even exists. And if the Law of Time is absolute, then time travel may not be possible at all.

Law of Physic is not that absolute in the first place such as in place like event horizon. Assuming there is one, time travel does not use law of physics in the first place. It may use another set of law that is very obscure to us in current time, the Law of Time. Assuming there is Law of time in the first place, we need to know what aspect in this law are readily available to be manipulated , assuming again if it can be manipulated in the first place. What if , the law of time is an absolute?

Sorry, we have rules against overly speculative posts.
 

Related to What if , the law of time is an absolute?

1. What is the law of time and why is it considered absolute?

The law of time is a concept in physics that states that time is a fundamental property of the universe that cannot be altered or changed. It is considered absolute because it is consistent and unchanging, and is the same for all observers regardless of their relative motion or position.

2. How does the law of time impact our daily lives?

The law of time plays a crucial role in our daily lives as it governs the order of events and the measurement of time. It allows us to track the passing of time and coordinate our activities accordingly. Without the law of time, our daily routines and schedules would be in chaos.

3. Is it possible to break or manipulate the law of time?

According to current scientific understanding, the law of time is considered absolute and cannot be broken or manipulated. However, there are theories and concepts, such as time travel, that propose the manipulation of time. These are still speculative and have not been proven to be possible.

4. What evidence supports the idea of the law of time being absolute?

One of the main pieces of evidence supporting the idea of the absolute law of time is the fact that time is a fundamental property of the universe that is consistent and unchanging. Additionally, the laws of physics, such as the theory of relativity, rely on the concept of absolute time to accurately describe the behavior of the universe.

5. How does the idea of the law of time being absolute relate to the concept of time dilation?

Time dilation is the phenomenon where time appears to pass slower for an object in motion compared to a stationary observer. This is a result of the law of time being absolute, as it states that time passes at the same rate for all observers regardless of their relative motion. Time dilation is a consequence of this law and is supported by experimental evidence such as the famous Hafele-Keating experiment.
