Quantum entanglement, or The destiny rock
Шрифт:
The hall smiled: some modestly, some with laughter.
– I want to illustrate some of the extremes of relativity. For example, the highest speed mastered by earthlings is just over 70 kilometers per second. The unmanned Helios-2 spacecraft reached a speed of 252,792 kilometers per hour This is by far the absolute record for the speed of a man-made object. Let's move on to other food for thought. We are all, me standing, you sitting, flying at over 1,800 kilometers per hour. Yes, yes, you get the picture, around the Earth's axis. And now we're going further. All with the planet around the sun at 30 kilometers per second.
Rutra deliberately stretched the last word – to emphasize the audience's attention.
– Now fly with the Sun and the entire solar system around the center of the galaxy at about 250 kilometers per second and make a circle in about 220 million years. So there you go. By the way, if you send hi… Oh, I completely forgot about that example.
Laughs were heard in the hall again.
– Yeah, I was gonna say about the hello from the nearest star. Well, if our neighbor sends us a hello at the speed of light, we'll get a hello in four years. And to fly on a spaceship, even with the speed that is unthinkable for living organisms, and is possible only for unmanned ones (see my articles about the effect of space radiation on living organisms, we have to fly…), as they say, a hundred lives will not be enough. That's me talking about that man-made machine with the highest speed. And that's just to the neighbor. Now let's go back to the new hello and send it from one edge to the edge of our galaxy. Sorry, you'll be waiting 100,000 years. And that's at the speed of light. And that fastest machine takes hundreds of millions of years. It'll take two million years for our letter to reach Andromeda. And this is at the speed of light, which is not only unthinkable in terms of achieving technical devices, but also contradicts all the laws of physics for material bodies. Again, if we remove the same radiation, which will blind everyone even in the flight to Mars. These are the extremes. On the one hand, we cannot reach such a speed for material bodies, because according to the famous formula the mass should be infinite, and on the other hand – even if we reach it, it is still negligible for cosmic distances. No material body can reach the speed of light. When you drive a car or fly in an airplane, or even ride a merry-go-round – you feel when you are pressed to the seat. That is, as your speed increases, your mass increases. Not your personal weight, but your mass. Only immaterial particles can fly at the speed of light. And there are such particles. There's a mystery to it… Now, I'll introduce another technology. It may seem like sorcery to you, but agree – the experiments of alchemists were also sorcery. This is the technology of transmitting thoughts, our consciousness over a distance. Now you will say: it is impossible to transmit them at all. But I will tell you – it has been possible for a long time… and at a distance too. After all, what is the totality of information, books, movies, our negotiations? They are our converted thoughts. Some into radio waves and then into sound speech, others into pictures and our visual perception… and so on. And if you can express part of the thoughts, part of the consciousness, why can't you express all of our consciousness in some form. And I'm telling you, you can. Consciousness can be recorded in the same radio waves or photons of light, then sent, and then decoded. You speak – and your voice is recorded, video is recorded, and then it travels earthly and cosmic distances. And then it is played back on another device. It, that device, doesn't see the same image that was there originally. And how does the image appear at all? The reflection of sun rays from the material body gets into the camera, just like in your eye, and there it is transformed, converted into a form understandable for the brain. That's why a man sees the world in his own way, a snake in its own way, a fish in its own way, and so on. Now imagine if all these animals had intelligence. But that's later.
Ruthra waved his hand, then held his index finger up.
– That's me on the subject of other worlds. Looking ahead, I will say: and you will remember those optimal options that allowed only humans to have intelligence, if there are intelligent beings, according to my theory…
He put his finger up again, and afterward he said pathosily:
– They're just like us.
After a little silence, he continued:
– We're focusing on something else for now. When radio waves… or light waves, even reflections from mirrors… travel colossal distances, are transformed into a form we understand, recorded by us, and then, even after a long time, give us the same information we had at the beginning – we see nothing surprising in it. So why can't we record consciousness, then transmit it over a distance and…" he repeated his signature gesture, "inject it into a person. Into another human being. And I'll tell you this: not just another person on Earth, but another person altogether. Not an earthling.
The last word he said again stretched out.
– Here, of course, we should remind about cloning technology. It is possible to put your consciousness into your clone. You're going to say, "How so? And you'd be right. After all, you are your consciousness. And if someone has your consciousness, then they share your past. Yes. But the future is different for everyone. From the moment your consciousness enters the clone, it's a separate person. You either have to disconnect, let's say, the first body… or… you have a twin. There are thousands of twins. And they all have the same past and individual futures. It's another thing to find that body somewhere out there, far out in space.
Ruthra looked around the audience, paused for a moment.
– I don't see the ridiculousness.
The hall was not left in debt, almost everyone smiled.
– There is another technology for this. This product is based on logical thinking. And logical thinking is based on two facts – infinite time and infinite space. Yes, they are infinite. It is difficult for us to imagine it, because we try to imagine a huge distance, some grandiosely large time, and for infinity they turn out to be minuscule. Imagine if you have to walk the circumference of the equator. Now imagine that to the sun. How many stars are there in our galaxy? About 400 billion. Imagine that this is a beach and every planet on it is a grain of sand. How many grains of sand are there on our planet, even around one sea? Can you imagine a galaxy with billions of stars? How about billions of galaxies? If only in ours there are about 400 billion stars, each with planetary systems… Isn't there a possibility that the Earth will form? You'll say, maybe, yes. This is where we get to the Fermi paradox. As you know, it says, if they exist, where are they? That is, over millions, billions of years of development, they must have reached or surpassed the level of our civilization, and we must have seen traces of their activity. Some kind of spacecraft, some kind of radio conversations. Perhaps we don't see all these things because they haven't reached us yet. Not even radio waves. Think about it, even at the speed of light, radio waves take an extremely long time to propagate for human life, even a technical civilization. Well, let's say they sent a signal. Now let's do the math. Our galaxy is 100,000 years across. That's for radio waves to travel through it. They too, as we know, travel at the speed of light. If this civilization took the path of scientific development 10,000 years ago, even if they already invented radio 5,000 years ago, and they are 20,000 light years away, we don't yet know what will happen in 15,000 years on Earth. Catch a thought. Maybe we'll destroy ourselves and never hear them at all, even if the signal gets through. Or we might hear them in 15,000 years. Maybe our signal will reach habitable planets that are 30,000 light years away. Or maybe the habitable planet is in our neighboring galaxy, the Andromeda Nebula, which is 2 million light years away. In 2,000,000 years, we will hear from them… or they will hear from us. So the answer to the question of whether or not they are there is probably there. And I'll tell you, of course there are! It's logic that says they must be. This is the basis for the following paradox. The theory of many-worlds says that there can exist simultaneously many worlds, and absolutely identical, with identical properties, as if parallel, that is, some of them, it is assumed in this theory, are not parallel, not fantastic, really exact copies of ours.
Rutra did his crowning trick again, looking at his listeners with a testy look.
– A miracle is a miracle to be beyond our everyday understanding of reality. The idea is that what happens in our world is somehow reflected in that world. Fantastic? Quite. But only if it is said of a phenomenon on our planet, as if it were a real invisible parallel world. And then – although it depends on how you look at it. And in the infinity of time and space why not to assume the existence of this reality, especially since we accept the theory of probability. There is a certain logical regularity and paradox at the same time. The point is this: you know very well that there is an antiproton, i.e. a representative of antimatter, a substance with opposite properties. Science is working on how to find other substances, or rather, antimatter. If there is such a reality, substances with opposite properties, then on this basis another logic is formed. If there is antimatter, substances with opposite properties, not the ones we are used to – what kind of world do they make up? An opposite world? Then perhaps there is an opposite world near us. After all, there is an antiproton on Earth. When people first found, for example, uranium, they knew about the unusual nature of this substance, they just did not understand what it was. Perhaps, that is why we do not feel the parallel world, not having properties and technologies to look into it. For example, you are walking in the desert or taiga without radio receiver, it seems to you that everything is deserted, godforsaken place, but as soon as you turn on the radio receiver or, say, a radiotelephone, invisible life appears around. You already feel yourself a part of society. With the help of what devices can we define this world a little bit? For example, I will say that it is possible to record the new elements of the Mendeleev table only for some fractions of a second. They are like messengers from other worlds: they appeared, the devices recorded that there they are, and disappeared. It is proved in practice that there is a substance, but in fact… not that you can touch it materially – in fact it simply does not exist. That's enough information for you to start with, I think. And now let's move on to the technique. Please, come to our laboratory, familiarize yourself with new technological innovations that will surprise you. Don't be frightened.
He waved his hand, and the entire pulpit began to descend like a giant elevator, or rather, only the floor, walls, and ceiling remained in place. Soon the ceiling slid down from above, and they found themselves in a new room. To Ruthra's left now floated two magical-looking beds. If not for the instruments and indicator lights, each would have looked like a crystal coffin from a fairy tale. After giving the audience a moment to savor what they had seen, Ruthra continued:
– So much of the fantastic is already in our world. We don't know it, and it's fantastic to us. You realize there are secret technologies. The technology that you are holding in your hands now, that you are using now, used to be secret. If you find out what levels there are in technology now, you will be very surprised. For example, there is technology that can be used to change your genes. Yes, yes. You can slowly change into a different person. If you put your brain into a monkey, you will have a monkey's body, but you will be you. What if you put information into that monkey brain, make it smarter? And if you take information from your brain, write it down and then put it into another person, then the appearance will be the same, but inside you will be you. That's Super Spy technology. It was originally born, as you realize from the name, for spy purposes. You can see why. All of these technologies are already on Earth. They're real. For example, it was once amazing that it was possible to recognize your conversation by deciphering with a special device the vibrations from a window. The vibrations that your voice creates. Even now it surprises many people. It is possible to read conversations in deep bunkers from space. You can read all the data from your computer through the electricity grid. It is possible to probe, let's say, a certain gathering of citizens by satellite and find out the content of their phone books, accounts, i.e. everything where they are registered, all transitions to addresses, pages, with whom they contacted, the content of storages, including cloud storages. And there is also technology where you can point a beam, for example, at a soda bottle, and the content will turn into poison. You drink it, and after a while you die. No one will know what it's from. Your heart will stop. Of course, there must be a special soda, but you can't tell it from the one you like. It is also possible to send a beam to your brain from a distance, to affect it in such a way that you have a hemorrhage. It can even be done through a cell phone. Make a call and send special inaudible sounds. And then there's this technology…
Ruthra paused for a few seconds, scratched his beard that hadn't been shaved in days, raised his index finger up in an "attention" gesture, and said majestically:
– And now for the magic technology. You can create clones in different places, send your consciousness over long distances via the Internet and instill it in the clones. It will be very convenient for business trips and traveling. By the way, it is possible not to instill in your body. For example, you want to be a famous actor, athlete, politician. True, this will require permission. To use the image. Just like now in advertising, for example. In the near future, perhaps, there will be such agencies that will keep different clones in different parts of the world. It will be possible to order your own, or maybe – and a template for all to use. If you want to travel, go somewhere, let's say: you come to the agency, you are placed in a special apparatus, your body will have to be taken care of, and your consciousness will be transferred via the Internet to another agency, put into a clone, you will wake up there, go for a walk as you wish, and come back. You can, by the way, and in a woman, and in a man, and in a child. And you can do something even cooler: you can choose a person with different abilities, for example, in terms of endurance. Let's say, for example, you are afraid to jump with a parachute, or maybe you are lame at all, or maybe you are heat-loving and want to walk in Antarctica. Or you want to feel the adrenaline, participating in a real fight, and the outcome is likely to be fatal. Now let's go a little deeper into the topic. According to probability theory, there are other worlds. You're going to have to take that on faith. Because it makes sense. Let's think about infinity. You will say, or rather – repeat the classic: then where are they? And you'll be right. But I'll tell you. Perhaps they are near, but we do not understand them. But there are certain markers that tell us about unusual phenomena. For example, phenomena like the wow signal! You know what I hope it is. So, somehow we wondered if they were using a connection that we don't understand. Imagine if some island had isolated life from primitive times, and the rest of the planet had modern level civilization, they would know absolutely nothing about us if, say, we tried to communicate with them by radio. So, I thought, maybe they communicate with us through thoughts. We dream and for some reason we think it's perfectly normal. We don't plan ahead of time what we need to see, what kind of dream we need to have. The dream comes by itself. We listen to music, watch movies, read books, look at pictures, that is, we perform conscious actions, but we cannot order the plot of the dream. They happen as a matter of course. Now let's ask ourselves – why does human civilization need dreams? Why can't the brain completely shut down at night? After all, we not only see dreams, but also consider some kind of meaning. We see dreams, and then we compare them with some events, which are repeated with the same phenomena in the dream, and practically consider it as certain information. We try to translate them into real events, even
Ruthra smiled again, and the listeners responded approvingly.
– There is such a paradox in science – entangled pairs. Simply put, it is when two particles-atoms fly apart, but keep an invisible and generally unexplained by science connection between them. What happens is this: when they fly apart, each particle spins around its axis; if one spins from left to right, the other spins strictly from right to left. This is the rule they always follow. However, this is not the real miracle. The miracle is that they somehow transmit information about their state to each other. For example, they can be caught in colliders, where the most powerful magnets are installed, and affect them. When you do, they instantly transmit that information to each other at incredible speeds. More than the speed of light. Much faster. Practically instantaneous. You say that violates the laws of physics. I'll tell you that's what a paradox is. Newton's laws… and the fact is, they're not really Newton's. He borrowed the basic ones, just like Einstein, but that's not the point. Well, those laws were also fundamental. They still are, but quantum physics has added to the whole thing. Some say that Einstein's devil made a mess of God's orderly laws. But, but, but…and again but. Because it works. So I decided to use this connection to transfer, to transmit these thought waves, the matrix of consciousness into the infinite reaches of space. And there is such a property here. That is, of course, we have experienced it on Earth. These waves of consciousness – they find a shelter for themselves. It's natural. If you shout "help" in the forest, nobody but a human being will understand you. That is, the sound you make, having found a shelter in another brain, will cause a reaction corresponding to its meaning. Now for the interesting part. What I was talking about, we're going to connect everything. We took all these theories of probability and hypotheses; like the same Einstein, we did not begin to understand especially and decided – there are worlds, and exact copies of them. We recorded billions of brain impulses, practically every thought, put them into a matrix, converted them and sent them into space by the influence of one particle on another to find their doppelgangers. After all, we, our brain, the whole planet and the whole galaxy, as well as everything else, constantly emit radiation, including these particles. So the whole universe is a broth of entangled pairs. Now, I should clarify here. When the influence of one particle on another is tested, it is done by holding them in the collider magnets so that we can observe and understand that influence. When we send the influence on the particles that make up our thought, the thought signal, we send as if at random, into space. If there is something like that out there, they will find each other. It's such a property, just like radio waves. Think of the same example with radio. If you send a signal, it is like the first part, and what catches it there and understands what that signal means is the second part. If they are strangers to each other, there will be no connection. Let's say you send one kind of radio waves, for example, KV, and there the receiver can only receive VHF. It seems to be close, but there will be no connection. But SOS signals, for example, are sent not specifically somewhere, but into the air. They find their target. Why? Because their target can be recognized, understood. Agree, you are not surprised that there is air around us, and its main component is nitrogen. There's a popular belief that air is made up of oxygen. It's only 23 percent oxygen. Perhaps there is a mass of something unknown around, carrying information about other worlds, but we do not understand it. We simply do not have the senses to perceive such things. For example, dolphins, having unique properties of signal communication, are completely deaf. Not only can't they hear us, they can't even imagine the existence of this kind of communication. Even if they developed the ability to understand human speech, they would need some kind of technical device to convert our speech into signals they could understand. Perhaps there is a world around us that is inaudible to us. After all, it's no secret that there is a limited range of human audible waves. And what is far to go. The same radio waves without a special device for us do not exist. So I thought that perhaps the kind of communication that other worlds use is simply unknown to us as a species. You're not surprised that we live in an ocean of all kinds of waves. Radio waves alone, that is, the ones that man has created, how many. We are not surprised that the universe is stitched with gravity, radiation. It was once thought to be filled with ether. And that made sense. The assumption was that sound waves bounce around material things like bumps and reach our ears. We thought that light should bounce on something. But it turned out to be the other way around. Light, on the contrary, needs as clean, empty space as possible. So it moves faster. Sound can't. That's why space is deaf. But radio waves, transmitting the same sound, can move like light and overcome obstacles. It doesn't surprise us that after all this, they turn into words we can understand. They're translated into that form. And the corresponding apparatus catches them. So why can't consciousness be brought into such a form that it can be transferred as a state of these particles and then converted into the same consciousness? The question remains: how will they get into another body or brain and replace consciousness there? Now remember hypnosis. You are given an order and you follow it. And now think why some people make you nervous, even if they don't speak. Why do full moons and natural phenomena affect the nervous system? Have you thought about it? Now I'll tell you if you know… well, of course you do, you just haven't paid much attention to it. I'm talking about radiation from living organisms. The same waves emitted by the brain. If you're talking, you're somehow also receiving what other people are saying. Simply put, if your brain emits radiation, you also receive radiation. If your brain receives information from your eyes and ears, it's fine if it receives invisible inaudible information. You just have to make it dominant. So that it can overcome the natural state and replace what is there with itself. That's what we've accomplished by finding the code for this effect. And now we will conduct the experiment itself, and you will not only see everything with your own eyes, but also take part in it.
Childish smiles appeared on the faces of most of the people in the group, though they themselves were not only at a high and responsible status, but also a level of intelligence.
Rutra, of course, did not personally make such decisions related to the demonstration of the method. Therefore, if there were any representatives of science in the group, they were members of political or administrative-managerial structures, mainly of a closed subdivision of the UN Security Council. The decision on declassification, public demonstration of the method was made by him after a conversation with Parmen, a month before.
