Teleportation? Invisibility?? Time Travel???

Teleportation and forcefields possible within decades, says Professor Michio Kaku

Teleportation and forcefields could become scientific realities within decades, and time travel will also be possible in the future, according to one of the world’s leading physicists.

Professor Michio Kaku of City University in New York has studied a range of scientific “impossibilities” and concluded that most will almost certainly be achieved as our knowledge expands.

For the full copyright statement see Copyright Applying the rule that unless something breaks a law of physics “then it’s not only possible, it is sure to be built someday”, Prof Kaku has established a hierarchy of “impossibilities”, separating those phenomena that are sure to remain science fiction from those which are likely to become reality at some point in the future.
Teleportation, telepathy, forcefields and invisibility are Class 1 impossibilities, meaning they are likely to be realisable within a few decades or at most a century.Class II impossibilities may take centuries or millennia to perfect, while Class III impossibilities are truly impossible.

Class 1

Teleportation is likely to be achieved through “quantum entanglement”, a property that allows connections to be formed - and information transmitted - between particles many miles apart.
Applying the process to larger objects like people is just a scientific “engineering problem”, that is likely to be solved in time, Prof Kaku writes in his new book Physics of the Impossible.
Similarly, telepathy will be made possible by improved MRI machines that can effectively read minds, and electrodes that can then pass the information into the brains of other humans.

Invisibility will probably be achieved using a recently-built “metamaterial” capable of bending light rays, he argues. Alien life will most likely be discovered within decades as our ability to analyse the universe improves.

Class II

Time travel is a Class II impossibility because, while it need not break the laws of physics, science still has major knowledge gaps to cross to make it a reality, Prof Kaku believes.
“What makes them [Class II impossibilities] so difficult is that they generally require vast amounts of energy, and their underlying physics is not totally understood,” he writes in this week’s New Scientist magazine.
The research of Stephen Hawking, Albert Einstein and the physicist Kip Thorne has shown that time travel is theoretically possible, but no-one has yet found a way to produce the energy necessary to keep a “wormhole” open.
“This technology is only achievable for a civilisation significantly more advanced than ours,” Prof Kaku writes.
Parallel universes and travelling faster than the speed of light are also Class II impossibilities, he argues.

Class III
The only two science fiction phenomena which Prof Kaku believes are truly impossible - Class III impossibilities - are perpetual motion machines and telling the future (precognition), both of which break the fundamental laws of modern physics.
“In considering what the future may hold, then, we should keep an open mind to Class 1 and Class 2 impossibilities,” Prof Kaku writes.
“What is unthinkable today might not be forbidden in a few decades or centuries.”

Social Evils

A report published by The Joseph Rowntree Foundation lists the top 10 social evils in UK society as: decline of community; individualism and selfishness; consumerism and greed, a decline of values, the decline of the family, young people as both victims and perpetrators, drugs and alcohol, poverty and inequality, immigration and responses to it, and crime and violence.

BBC article - Report lists new ’social evils’

It will be interesting to hear what solutions they come up with to tackle these social problems. Change in a society’s ethical values happens slowly and I can’t imagine it can be reversed quickly or easily. Especially if we don’t recognise what the root causes of each problem are. For example how do you deal with the problem of consumerism and greed? A commentator on the BBC website wrote:

“The egalitarian principles of liberty, brotherhood and justice have been consumed by social Darwinist greed”.

Food for thought…

Why We Are Not Given Victory

I’m going through the Seerah of Prophet (صلى الله عليه وسلم), reflecting on the part where the Muslims were given victory in Mecca or fathul-Makkah (opening of Mecca).

The way in which the Prophet (صلى الله عليه وسلم) entered Mecca - humble because victory is granted only by God. The way he (صلى الله عليه وسلم) dealt with those that fought against the Muslims - he forgave them and said they are free, even though they killed many of his companions and his own uncle (ra), they were by all means war criminals. 

He (صلى الله عليه وسلم) didn’t take retribution for all the wrongs committed against him (صلى الله عليه وسلم). For he was not sent for this, he was sent as a mercy to mankind (صلى الله عليه وسلم).

It’s called the “opening of Mecca” and not “conquering Mecca”. It wasn’t about defeating the enemy to take their wealth and land (in this case take back their own land). It was about opening the hearts of enemies to the truth.

Fight them if they fight you, we have been given the right to defend ourselves from aggression, but when we are given the upper hand we are taught the best way is to forgive and show mercy.

Just think if Muslims were given victory over our perceived enemies in these times, how would we react? What if Israel was defeated how would the Muslims deal with the Israelis? How about America? Would we follow the example set by the Prophet (صلى الله عليه وسلم) and show mercy or would we take revenge?

Victory is granted by Allah alone, the way the Muslims behaved after the opening of Mecca proved they were sincerely fighting for the sake of Allah, not for any other worldly reason, they deserved victory.

Maybe we are not yet given victory because we don’t deserve it.

Allah knows best.

 

Patience for the Sake of Allah




Every Atom Important

A story that was told in todays khutba at Salat al-Jummu’ah:

A pious man had passed away and his friend, also a righteous man, saw him in a dream. He asked him what has Allah done with him. The man used to be a merchant in the Dunya, he said:

“Allah questioned me about something I never even gave a passing thought in my life. He asked me when I was making a sale and used to measure the quantity of my goods on a scale, why did I not wipe the trays of the scales before every sale? Because dust and atoms gather on the scales and although it seemed insignificant to you, to Allah it is a serious matter - dealing with people fairly.”
