No Time at all
Since HG Wells published his book Time Machine in 1885, people have been interested in time travel. Many have attempted to explain this, but most have led to failures. However, a university professor (and avid reader of everything related to black holes and science fiction) has supposedly proved that time travel is mathematically possible. According to a new study by Ben Tippett, a math and physics instructor at the University of British Columbia's Okanagan campus, math can prove the existence and possibility of time travel. "People think of time travel as something of a fiction, and we tend to think it's not possible because we don't do it. But mathematically, it is possible." Tippett's study was released in the International Journal of CLASSICAL and QUANTUM GRAVITY, and the description of his research states: "In this paper, we present geometry which has been designed to fit a layperson's description of a 'time machine.' This box allows those within it to travel backward and forward through time and space, as interpreted by an external observer. Timelike observers travel within the interior of a 'bubble' of geometry which moves along a circular, acausal trajectory through spacetime. If certain timelike observers inside the bubble maintain a persistent acceleration, their worldlines will close." Tippett stated in his study that we cannot look at a three-dimensional space but a four-dimensional space where different directions are connected. Based on Einstein's theory, he explains that spacetime is curved, which results in planets in the universe having curved orbits. Imagine standing next to a massive star to picture this in your head. At the place where you are standing, the geometry in spacetime is curved, which means everything near the star (and you) will have a curved trajectory and create a curved path around the star. From another point of view, in a flat or uncurved spacetime, planets and stars would move in straight lines rather than curved lines. In Tippett's words: "The time direction of the spacetime surface also shows curvature. There is evidence showing the closer to a black hole we get, time moves slower," says Tippett. "My model of a time machine uses the curved spacetime — to bend time into a circle for the passengers, not in a straight line. That circle takes us back in time." In this study, Tippett showcased his mathematical model, the traversable causal retrograde domain in spacetime or TARDIS. His model showcases a 'bubble' of spacetime geometry that moves eight times faster than the speed of light, allowing it to move backward in time. In other words, he wants to use the curvature of spacetime in the universe to bend time into a circle for "passengers" sitting in the time machine, which allows them to travel into the future and past. He says: "It is a box that travels 'forwards' and then 'backwards' in time along a circular path through spacetime. Delighted external observers could watch the time travellers within the box evolving backwards in time: un-breaking eggs and separating cream from their coffee." If you look at this picture, you will better understand what I am talking about. Person A is the time machine passenger, and Person B is the observer. Both persons A and B experience time in dramatically different ways. "Within the bubble, A will see B's events periodically evolve and then reverse. Outside the bubble, observer B will see two versions of A emerge from the same location: one's clock hands will turn clockwise, the other counterclockwise." Of course, if something sounds too good to be true, then it is probably not true. Although Tippett has conducted a tremendous amount of research and possibly proven the existence of time travel, he doubts that anyone will actually build a workable machine anytime soon. He says: "HG Wells popularized the term' time machine,' and he left people with the thought that an explorer would need a 'machine or special box' to accomplish time travel,".. "While it is mathematically feasible, it is not yet possible to build a spacetime machine because we need materials – which we call exotic matter – to bend spacetime in these impossible ways. Still, they have yet to be discovered,." To put it simply, Tippett developed a model of a possible time-travelling machine. Still, we do not have the necessary materials to build the device with our current technological advancements.
THE RELIGION OF THE LGBTQ+
THE RELIGION OF THE LGBTQ+ Religion is a complex and multifaceted concept, and its definition can vary depending on cultural, historical, and individual perspectives. Generally, religion refers to a set of beliefs, practices, rituals, and values that are centered around the worship of a higher power or a divine being (or beings). It often involves moral codes, ethical guidelines, and a sense of purpose in life.

The Importance of Antivirus Software
Today, there exist many brands of Antivirus software. You may have heard of or experienced the scourge of ransomware. In this scenario, the entities who installed ransomware on your computer demand money to make your computer functional again. Even if you pay up there is no guarantee that they would implement their promise. The solution to this problem is using antivirus software to identify and prevent ransomware attacks.
The Review HivePublished 10 months ago in EducationTrue Origin Of Humanity
Our history is written by the notes of the winners, of their power and influence over the centuries. But who were the first civilizations to set foot on our planet? What if the story is told by ancient civilizations, the tales of gods and angels, of Giants and great disasters that were more literal than they first appeared? What if we received ancient knowledge beyond our human understanding? If we look at some of the details, an entirely alternate history of the human race suddenly surfaces, one that completely overturns conventional knowledge and the history we've been taught. This version has mostly been consciously censored, forgotten or worse - ignored. Until now...

Myth to explain the fabled origin story of why rainbows exist.
Here is a myth to explain the fabled origin story of why rainbows exist: In the beginning, the world was a dark and dreary place. The sun was always hidden behind clouds, and the rain fell without end. The people of the world were miserable. They longed for a sign of hope, a sign that there was something more to life than this endless darkness and despair.

Here are some currently trending topics across various niches in the US: 1. LGBT Pride Month LGBT Pride Month LGBT Pride Month is celebrated in June every year to promote equality and acceptance of the LGBT+ community. The month-long celebration commemorates the Stonewall riots of 1969, which saw members of the LGBT+ community fight back against police oppression. Today, Pride Month is an opportunity for people to come together and celebrate diversity in sexuality and gender identity. Although there has been significant progress in securing the rights of LGBT+ individuals, there is still work to be done to promote equality and combat discrimination.
Punit kumarPublished 10 months ago in Education Salt; A friend and Enemy
Salt consumption has increased by 50 percent over the past four decades in the United States. The average American consumes 3 400 milligrams of salt per day, which is nearly double the recommended amount. However, high salt intake is associated with high blood pressure, kidney disease, stroke, and heart disease. Thus, it is important to understand what happens if someone reduces their salt intake in an attempt to reduce these risks. First, we will discuss what happens when someone decreases their salt intake and then we will move on to discussing what would happen if they completely cut salt out of their diet. Major differences exist between reducing salt intake by a few hundred milligrams or decreasing it by a few thousand milligrams per day. After one week, people might not physically feel the difference but their body's blood pressure has already been lowered and their kidneys are responsible for this by regulating what is inside blood vessels. When dehydrated, your body sends a signal to lose water as well as retain fluids in the kidneys; all in an effort to maintain a healthy balance of water and salt between your cells and blood. Consuming too much salt can sometimes interfere with this process.
