I've just woken up from sleeping in the freezing cold caravan with a strange thought in my head. i thought i had better share it with as many people as possible b4 i forget it (which is what usually happens when i think of something). anyway, the thought was about timetravel. well not travel, but being able to "see" into the past. light bounces off everything, which then travels to our eyes, so we can see them. this light also bounces off in every direction (within a line of sight of the object) including out and into space.if there was a way (quite impossible with our current level of technology) to get to a point where the light hasnt reached yet, would we be able to see the object the light bounced off in the past? eg. the atomic bomb blew in 1945 (if i can remember my history) and its light reflected out into space, like a ripple of water from a splash. even now, that light is still going further out into space at the speed of light (duh!). if a ship was able to intercept it (either via FTL or wormhole) and had a VERY VERY good telescope, and looked back at Earth (which would be VERY far away)the crew would be able to "see" into the past. This is a really kewl idea, coz if it was successful, then events in the past could be supported with visual evidence from the ship. so we could find out what happened to those retarded dinosaurs! just something to think about, gets my head working. dunno bout u though
