- Reality -
Chapter 01 - from nothing to a system - page 01.
A system can become a reality when there are self-concious elements in this system that are
aware of the existance of the system and themselves. So first we need a system.
It's hard to imagine what a system is really, but on the other hand it's
actually the same as a reality, only without self-concious entities. So from a
pure visual point of view you have something similar to what earth was before
anything lived on the planet, but then imagine this state over everything in
said system. The matter out of which planets, stars and what not are built, is
present, but what about time?
Lets just -for now- use the common 'human' definition of time, this time has
also an influence on everything else : entire starsystems and clusters rotate,
they need a certain amount of time to make one rotation, the actual rotation is
not instant, 'a certain amount' of time has passed before it's completed. Several years maybe? Not
quite correct, cos there are no years yet since there are no humans who have
defined 'years'. There is another kind of time, though. It's main purpose is to
direct things into a certain direction. I call it a 'time vector'. At this
point, before a reality exists, age is not defined and it may well be impossible
for any entity in the reality that sprouts from the system to define the actual
age of the system before it became a reality.
There are theories and calculations that say that our current universe is
roughly between 12 and 15 billion years old, said theory is based on the fact that the universe
may have been born from something called the 'big bang'. By observing the
amount of radioactive decay of atoms one can determine how old something is that
contains said atoms. A similar technique is used in archeology to determine the
age of artifacts. Looking for certain elements in stars, remnants of supernovae
and asteroids one can determine a minimum age since the actual creation of the
atoms and deriving from that result a minimum age of the reality.
Another method is to plot the speed at which systems, clusters etc move away
from each other and simulate a reverse movement until the everything is in one
location (the big bang) and count how much time it might have taken. But there
are a number of theories and facts that claim the universe to be quite young instead,
while others claim it to be several times older than what the big bang theory
says, judging by the time it might take for galaxies to shape into their current
form...
There may be other methods, but this only gives an estimate of the age of a
reality, not the system and on top of that we're not even sure if it's correct.
If the big bang did really happen, there had to be a system before the actual
bang and that one was not necessarily empty, but since it's a system no-one was
there to experience it and determine it's age. There's no proof that everything
started moving away from one point after the big bang - it's just a theory and
determining an age, basing one's calculations on a theory, makes the result as
thrustworthy as the theory on which it's based. We can only be sure of how much
time has passed between two points in time that are remembered fully, for which
one needs self-concious elements and an accurate device to determine how much
time has passed and a definition of time. For humans the most accurate period of
time is the one that started with semi-accurate measurement of time, which is not all
that long ago. But we more or less determined the age of mankind thanks to found
skeletons and utensils and even deeper into the past we can more or less
determine when the first self-concious entities were born on this planet, this
in turn might give a approximate age of our reality, but according to earth and
humans. There may very well be other and older self-concious beings in this
reality who in turn can try to determine the age of reality according to their
time system.
But determining the age of a system is not possible as to determine it you need
a self-concious being to either experience the amount of time that passes or
take notice of anything that may happen (such as how many times a cluster
rotates) which can give an accurate measurement of time, but as soon as a
self-concious being is added to a system it's no longer a system. Time is
basically 'reset' at that point and starts from zero, making the actual age of
the system impossible to determine, thus it's not possible to prove the
existance of time in a system, the only thing that's there is a time vector
which only determines in which direction actions are performed i.e. what happened
before or happens after something else. The definition of order is already there, but no
definition of how much time passes between two things that happen in this
pre-determined order. In a system, 'age' is irrelevant, but the base on which
self-concious intelligent life can later build it's own time system, is already
there, much like there's an elemental building block of matter, there will be one
of time as well.
But the exact age of a system can never be determined and for similar reasons it
may not be possible to come up with correct physical laws, since an (unkown)
part of the history of a system can never be reconstructed with such accuracy,
sufficient enough to base physical laws upon. There may have been events,
containing critical data for a certain physical law, that only occured in the
system-period of a reality. Not only does this fact make any lifeform question
their current physical laws, but it will also keep them from finding out what
happened during the creation of their system and what may have caused the birth
of it in the first place. There are, however, ways to see what happened closely
after the birth of a system, but this involves extra-dimensional travel (will be
discussed later).
The big bang theory is one of several theories that try to explain how the
current universe came into existence. An explosion of space and time occured and
this space contained matter from which the current stars and plantes are made.
Although the theory is very detailed it is still undergoing many revisions and
is still not proven to be correct. The biggest question is how could this
explosion exists if there was nothing that might explode in the first place?
If Einstein's e=mc˛ formula is correct, matter can be turned into energy (which
can be proven, and is actually happening all the time in this universe) and
possibly energy can even be turned into matter (not proven to be 100% possible and i
believe it to be impossible). But
if you were to link time to the amount of energy (entropy), which is
continuously increasing and is the oldest proof of the existance of time (or
rather, the progression of time in one direction and one direction only), then
turning energy into matter is basically turning time backwards, yet this is how
matter can be created out of seemingly nothing. But can energy exist without
matter? These very questionable facts of turning energy into matter and of the
existance of energy without matter concludes that it's very unlikely that this
is what did happen. Eventually almost everything will deterioate into energy out
of itself, the most stable atoms can remain technically 'forever', but chemical
reactions such as in stars are turning matter into energy quite fast. If
everything is turned into energy, there is no matter left and there's the
maximum amount of energy available, meaning the reality (which at this point is
no longer a reality but has become a system again) reached the end of it's life.
It will most likely collapse and just dissapear into the nothingness around it.
But this cannot be proven, so an equally acceptable theory might be that at this
final point, the time vector equals 0 (no movement of time in any direction) on
the exact moment of the collapse and that all energy is contained in the
smallest possible amount of space (elemental amount of space) and that all this
energy then turns into matter almost instantly (time vector remains 0) and the
process starts over again (time vector is redefined and no longer 0) : time moves
in a certain direction and something similar to a big bang has created matter which is pushed outwards from this
elemental amount of space, creating more space and eventually a new system is born.
But this already requires the existance of system and it's (partial) collapse,
the collapse of the system will wipe out any remnants of said system and only
the energy out of which all matter was made will remain.
Another simple formula : 1+(-1)=0. Matter + anti-matter = nothing, when a matter
and equal anti-matter particle meet, they annihilate each other and the result
is energy, in the form of light.
But at this point it's important the mention the duality of light - is it matter
or is it energy? Can light exist without the presence of any matter, just as
it's questionable if any energy can exists if there isn't any matter (and thus
any space) this is hard or even impossible to prove. If light is matter and
energy at the same time, it can exist without the presence of any other matter
or energy and light may possibly be the only thing that remains right before a
system collapses as all matter has turned into energy but since it's also matter
at the same time, there's still space left so said system will not collapse, thus
such a system may not be able to collapse into another big bang. A system that
only contains light can't -technically- ever collapse and will most likely
continue to grow space-wise while the amount of energy/matter remains constant,
this also make the time vector 0 again.
0=1+(-1). A matter and anti-matter particle can -theoretically- be created out of energy. But
then you have to allow the fact that energy can be transformed into matter
again. There have been experiments and theories that conclude that collisions
between particles at high speeds turn the particle into energy and the same time
transform the energy of the particle into matter. This high speed has to be
equal to the speed of light. Remember that the speed of light is the maximum
speed any particle can have according to Einstein. To have matter reach the
speed of light, you need an infinite amount of energy. Lets just assume that
this speed has been reached, then time would stand still for the particle that
is moving at the speed of light, the time vector of the particle is 0. At the
moment of the collision, energy may be turned into matter and vice versa, since
the time vector is still at 0. But since the speed of light cannot be reached
this theory cannot be tested. In particle accelerators, particles can reach
almost the speed of light, but this is still not enough to make the time vector
0.
In an infite universe and with Einstein's formule being correct, a particle may
reach the speed of light, but it will take an infite amount of time to transfer
all matter (which is an infinite amount) into an infinite amount of energy. At
the point the particle does reach the speed of light, the time vector of the
system will have reached 0 since all matter has been transformed into energy,
but not quite all matter, since this particle is still there. Only at the exact
moment that the last particle is also turned into energy it will have the
neccesary energy to reach the speed of light, at the same time the system will
collapse since all energy is now focussed in an infinite small amount of space
(there's no matter, so there's no space). But since there's no matter anymore
there's nothing flying at the speed of light, so said particle will actually
never have reached the speed of light, but since at that moment the time vector
is 0, energy can be turned into matter, providing a particle with an almost
infinite amount of energy which can then travel at almost the speed of light.
Since the time vector is 0, this transition from energy to matter does not
require any amount of time to have passed, since there is no time and thus this
transition happens instantly, allowing at that very moment the particle to
exist both as matter and as energy, no longer making it either matter or energy,
but possibly turning it into light, which can reach the speed of light, in fact
that's what light is doing all the time : flying at the maximum possible speed
allowed (light can be slowed down however when it doesn't travel through a
vaccuum, the speed of light is always constant but determined by the medium
through which light is passing). Something which is not light cannot reach the
speed of light in a finite system, in a infinte system it will take an infinite
amount of time and as a result it will destroy the system, and any reality said
system may have contained. On top of that, light has to travel at it's maximum
speed of light, to be able to maintain it's duality, since this duality can only
exist when the time vector is 0 and the time vector is zero for something
that travels at the speed of light.
Back to our finite system : when matter and anti-matter meet they annihilate
each other and the result is energy in the form of light. So somehow matter can
be turned into light, according to the previous example this requires that this
matter's own time vector becomes 0 so the duality of light and energy can exist
and the speed of light can be reached. Furthermore it also means energy can be
turned into light as that is what's required to make the matter that turns into
light in the first place. Being light and having the speed of light
are two conditions that have to be met at the same time, matter cannot reach the
speed of light without becoming light and light will always travel at the speed
of light. On top of that the time-vector of light must be 0 to allow both
conditions to exist in any system. So 1+(-1) is not only 0 it also makes the
time vector reach 0 for a moment. Seeing how light exists in realities or
systems with a non-zero time-vector this meansnot everything in that system or
reality is affected by the global time-vector, there are elements who have their
own time-vector, such as light. Later on i will discuss the possibility of
forces having a time-vector equal to zero and the result that fact has on
creating physical laws.
Keeping the duality of light in mind, the end of a system will most likely be
reached when all matter has been transformed into energy, this energy being
light. Light is energy and matter at the same time and has a time-vector of 0,
since there's nothing else in the system, its time-vector will also be 0,
nothing really exists at that time yet still there is light, travelling at the
speed of light. The duality is allowed to exist forever since the time vector of
the system is 0 and forever actually is an amount of time equal to zero when in
a system with a time-vector equal to 0, yet there's movement. To require movement
the time-vector cannot be 0, as it defines the finite nature of the system. Moving
from one place to another takes time, but at this point in a system there is no time,
making movement instant and thus making the speed of whatever is moving infinte.
Defining speed has become irrelevant as well as age in this system since the time-vector is 0, allowing anything to travel at whatever speeds possible since there's
no limitation whatsoever. In such a system only light can exist, since the presence
of any matter and/or energy will not allow the above state to exist. This state is also
final
unless light can be split into energy and matter again.
The purpose of this chapter however, is not to determine the end of a system but
rather the beginning, the 'ultimate' beginning, not the rise of a system from the ashes
of a previous system, but rather the very first system ever. Ruling out the big bang now,
but there are other theories.
Some state that the system that contains our reality (although the actual
theories do not mention any system at all, only reality) has existed for ever
and will exist for ever. Some allowing matter to be created out of nothing to
support an ever-growing system with enough matter to allow it to have a minimum
density needed to turn a system into a reality, thus meaning allowing life to
exist in it for ever.
But a system with no end and no beginning is not logical, there has to be a
definable point at which space and matter were created and at which the time
vector is not 0...
