@pyrogram: Kinetic or electromagnetic wavelengths are not the same as time travel.
@pyrogram: Well neither one is really energy, but if you want to define it like that, light is electromagnetic energy and sound is kinetic energy. W...
@pyrogram: Light is something which can carry information with it, but so too does sound. If you make a really loud noise and then rush ahead of it...
if they are staying with a Krypton theme it might be nice to see Brainiac or Doomsday
Well your idea is kind of more like having a recollection of the past as opposed to true time travel. Things only exist in the universe at one point...
@warlock360: its a good point about the mirror.
The difference is that the light travels through a medium, and it degrades. Everytime it passes through a crystal of space dust, or gets its traject...
@warlock360: Sure but that explanation while potentially consistent with some science is not really hard science fiction though.
@pyrogram: That is not time travel though, that is just watching the end process of a physical reaction. Photons do take about 8 minutes to reach t...
@pyrogram: I am not following.
@pyrogram: I read it, but it doesn't deal with entropy as I mentioned, or determinism.
@pyrogram: Well entropy does say that it is impossible, but that time space distortions are also only localized phenomena.
@pyrogram: I suggest you read that article, it summarizes it a lot better than I can. I am not a physicist after all.
@akintoussaint: Sure, but they could use a lot of other good characters that they seem uninterested in.
@pyrogram: Entropy is not at all a theory. It is assumed as scientific fact, and one of the laws of the universe.
@pyrogram: The article explains it better than I can, but basically time travel still depends on an equilibrium of the breakdown of matter to a chaot...
@awesam: Hard science fiction has to at least acknowledge the limitations of fiction to fit within a factual world.
@pyrogram: I think you should read that article I attached. That violates entropy.
@drgnx: There is lots of stuff they could do, they usually don't though which is disappointing.
@pyrogram: That wouldn't be hard science fiction though, the challenge is to write hard science fiction with time travel.
@pyrogram: Kinetic or electromagnetic wavelengths are not the same as time travel.
