Anybody here familiar with that name? Ronald Mallett is a physicist I first heard of a few years back and have been following ever since. Long story short, he's trying to develop a time machine. I don't know if time travel is possible, but as a fan of sci fi I do find his story intriguing. I also admire his ambition. Even if he succeeds in only sending a particle through time it would be one of the greatest inventions in human history. The fact that Mallett is a black man would of course be icing on the cake. Here's a brief vid about him. [youtube]vZ5fkEMHKHM[/youtube]
Yeah, I heard about this cat a couple of years ago and saw the special on him. From what I remember, he was supposed to use a process involving lasers or something where he would shoot particles forward close to light speed or something. He did say that traveling backwards would be a bigger challenge, but was possible. Don't know where he is in the process now, but would be nice if a brotha actually created some type of "time machine."
This vid is from a discovery channel piece. It explains the theory in more detail. [youtube]oRWwI61so5Q&feature=related[/youtube]
I've actually read about this and from what I've read it seems very possible. I think its more probable with conscious not physical matter.
I don't believe it and I wished it was true. Proof of Time travel:Change a small event in history or take pictures and bury them before returning.
