Passion Is the Enemy of Precision. Focus Combined With Intent, and Exquisite Timing Is Everything.

Time Is the Presence of Motion and Forces. Does Tomorrow Actually Exist?

 

The Present is Infinitesimal.

"Tomorrow is nothing, today is too late; the good lived yesterday."

--- Marcus Aurelius

       We used to measure our passing moments by observing motion interlinked with our world. Early humans would watch as the sun crossed the sky --- marking moments in their lives. The same was true about our moon, the stars and everything else in the multi-dimensional universe. Since the use of mechanical clocks and digital time pieces entered the scene, we have allowed time to become something else; it took on a life of its own while we continued to become more and more disconnected from the original motions and forces that were involved.

       If we can go back to the original concept of time and re-experience the motion viscerally, then it is possible that our greatly advanced and technologically capable world could make better sense of just what time is and if it can be manipulated. If we are capable of imagining good and bad outcomes for any situation, then it might also be possible to imagine a moment in our future when we can use a time dependent technology to alter or reverse the effects of time.

       One way a better understanding of time could be used would be in life extension. Our cells age on a very real subatomic level and time is indeed a very real phenomenon but if we observe an electron and then unobserve it --- is that electron in that cell really existing in real time? Or, is it as some scientists speculate --- existing upon observation and then not existing once the observer looks away? Since we live in an observer based world (thanks to Einstein) where everything and anything is relative and dependant on the one observing, cannot the same thing be said of our very existence? It can. Simply imagine another world thirteen billion years away looking back at our planet --- we would be dead or the past to them.

       To understand time, it is important to observe entropy in the real world. Imagine the complexities that build up in a single person's life over the course of a year, a month, a day, a minute or even a second. All of the things we touch, think about and observe ---- every action whether imagined or acted on in the real world including dreams --- add up to a tremendous amount of complexity and irreversible chaos. The quote by the Roman Emperor, Marcus Aurelius, speaks to the duration of the past and future while pointing to the futility of the present. The present all too quickly becomes the past, and is left to be recorded like an old song on any recording device of your choosing.

       Tomorrow is truly nothing. In order for our ever evolving, complex species to advance to the point where we can actually define what time is, we need to get back to the foundation of the motions and forces involved in the sensations that help create the illusion of time in our minds. If everything we are is in our brains, then just like a perfect circle existing there (where it can't in the real world) the perfect perception of time can also exist in our physical mind, and then possibly be utilized by a more advanced version of ourselves in the very near future.

       In the end, it all comes down to energy. If one intends to do something, then that particular thing will get done. When everything is clear, time can only be understood in the manner which we first observed it. Eventually, time breaks itself apart like the expanding universe and distills down to one very simple idea: abstract motion set into reality with measurable forces --- not dislocated digital numbers and sweeping hour hands.

Declassified U.S. Nuclear Test Film #32.

When I watch a recently declassified film like this, I still can't believe that the earth is still populated with any form of life at all. If it's true that "life feels life", then someday soon it's inevitable that death will feel death and there won't be anything worthwhile left on this planet. Humans need to get off of this world in mass numbers ASAP to give ourselves a chance to exist well into the future before it's too late.

Behold, the fifty pound W54 "Davy Crockett" nuclear mortar shell. I'm sure we'll make it through the 21st century. You can bet on it.

Remember Captain Pike From Star Trek? Meet Captain Cat.

Captain Pike.

He was the first Enterprise Captain before Kirk took over. The video below is kinda funny and it reminded me of the robot-like wheelchair that Pike used. Note: Kitty below does not need the "blinking lights" that Pike used for communication.

 

Captain Cat!

In the final Masters' book, Always Another Dawn, this is a close representation of what he maneuvers across the Antarctic ice fields circa 2040. Although 90% complete, substantial formatting and editing are required before the final novel is completed later this year.
