EVERLASTING LIFE

Time does not flow like a river but is broken down into individual separate units- and a version of you lives forever in each unit, physicists have said, meaning everlasting life is not just a religious belief but scientific fact. Historically physicists and philosophers viewed time as a constant, flowing like a river from the past to the present and into the future. But more recently quantum physicists suggested this view was wrong and introduced the purely theoretical idea of the shortest length of time possible- the almost infinitesimally small Planck Constant. Research suggests there is a genuine measurable minimum unit of time beyond which it is not possible to go- meaning time is broken down into discreet units in the same way matter is made up of atoms. These 'static' minimum units of time then align to give the impression of time flowing. The findings suggest the head-spinning possibility of countless earlier versions of yourself trapped forever in a particular time frame. It has been proposed that time is discrete in nature. Thus, if this view is taken seriously, then our conscious precipitation of physical reality based on continuous motion becomes an illusion produced by a discrete underlying mathematical structure. Through some ultra-complex mathematics scientists conclude time can be thought of as a crystal structure, regularly, endlessly repeating segments. This development opens up the possibility of time travel as it introduces the notion of a discrete fixed moment in time- perhaps continually existing- which it may be possible for time travellers to pinpoint and go back to, or indeed forward to.
