The hopes of going back in time and visiting the jurassic era escape a T-Rex and warping into the future to save the world from Skynet will never happen. This is according to Chinese physicists who claim to have proved that time traveling is out of the realm of possibility (at least in this universe).
In a published study, Shengwang Du and his team of physicists at the Hong Kong University of Technology and Science stated that single photons can't travel faster than the speed of light. What? Shengwang Du is claiming that a single photon can't travel faster than light, in other words light can't travel faster than light. This would be the same as proving that Jane Smith is Jane Smith!
His team claims that as a result, the possibilities of time traveling have been debunked in one fell swoop because it was previously believed that if a single photon could travel faster than the speed of light, it could "teleport" information to another time.
Du says he has no idea how many dreams he just shattered with his findings. The only thing Du has shattered is the tuition of his students. I can hear the words "Refund, Refund..." echoing. Incredibly, the Chinese professors lead by Du have not taken into account changing the shape of space/time, traveling outside space/time ... wormhole anyone? Sad day for Physics when the types of Shengwang Du are teaching grad school! Side note for the crack physics team at HK University, UCONN sent particles back in time years ago. If you skip classes at school, at least read the news!!! //Gorazd Velkovski
