The Keys to Communicating with Other WorldsLee And Vance Publishing Co, 2003 - 128 páginas The Keys to Communicating with Other Worlds explores how electromagnetic waves traveling at the speed of light turn astronomical telescopes into time machines. As we peruse the flickering lights from distant heavens and peer into deep space, we see billions of years into the past. Conversational scientific wisdom provides for a hypothetical elementary particle, the graviton that governs gravitational interaction. After years of searching, its existence remains to be completely understood. As a result that long-standing theory never has been fully proven. Until we find a real time communication link, we may continue to miss the aliens' real-time information highway. |
