How Aliens TIME-TRAVEL... Eric Weinstein explains to Joe Rogan

if I wanted to go a very long distance the first thing I do is grow the ruler to shrink the distance then go the distance under that ruler and then I'd shrink the ruler back so when you talk about things like oh these things are behaving like nothing I've ever seen well there are a couple things that I'm worried about if these things are real one is does somebody else know how to grow rulers and Shrink rulers and grow watches and Shrink watches speed them up slow them down in order to get in con

trol of the thing that we thought was space time the next issue is are there multiple temporal dimensions so Eric your friend has had too much coffee believes that they're either six or four extra temporal dimensions and whatever isn't temporal is spatial so it's either four plus six or six plus four extra Dimensions split between time and space if that's true try to imagine extra dimensional Engineers who have full access to something where there's no Arrow of time the only time there's an arro

w of time is if time is one dimensional time is two-dimensional you have like a Whirlpool of time which is either clockwise or counterclockwise if it's three-dimensional you have a right hand rule of time and there's a left hand rule of time these are called orientations my belief is that we may be looking at something that has access to either four or six additional dimensions and again I'm reading this off of a page of equations and notes and so you know what they mean in physical reality in o

ther words if this thing on the page is true holy [ __ ] on the other hand if it's just some geometry then you don't worry about it you say okay well extra Dimensions I can think in 17 or three or what it doesn't matter it's not that hard to think in higher dimensions spatially for people who do what I do almost none of us can think in multiple temporal Dimensions there's one guy in Los Angeles at USC called Yitzhak bars Turkish Jew who keeps talking about two-time physics and I've spoken to him

but multiple temporal Dimensions would be a decisive game changer in terms of changing everything that we know about the world and what would be the technology that someone could use to access that because well that's the big thing I know I know I know you think about it you're you and I are both old enough to remember cassette tapes and vinyl albums on a cassette tape you've played your favorite album all the way through like Dark Side of the Moon and you want to play it again you have to rewi

nd through every song you just played and you hear me right but that doesn't happen on an album towards the end of the turntable time you would just the stylus would pick up it would skip over all the stuff that you didn't want to hear again and it would go back to some track that you did imagine you could do that with time you didn't have to go back through time to go back in time do I even know what I mean not not really I'm sort of at the edge of where I can actually say things but you see al

l of physics proceeds from the time from the Assumption the time is one dimensional we have this thing called deterministic propagation so if you take quantum mechanics they're really two rules one is completely deterministic with no probability Theory you've got a system you know it's initial conditions and you say if I know the laws of physics I should be able to figure out where this is you know I take this lighter and I throw it up and I catch it and it described a parabola okay initial cond

ition propagation I measure it it's completely determined by the point of release in quantum mechanics you have the second thing called Quantum measurement and that is this weird probabilistic thing that nobody understands everybody says if you think you understand the quantum you don't understand it it's mind-blowing blah blah blah but the first part of it is where we're trying to fit gravity and when we quantize it I don't think gravity goes in that slot I think that what you do is you don't q

uantize gravity you harmonize gravity gravity is the Observer we say well when you make an observation well who's doing the observation is Joe doing the observation is Jamie doing the observation who's doing this observation who has the right to use the second rule for collapsing the state Vector with Schrodinger's Cat and all entanglement weirdness well I think it's gravity I think that part of the story is is that gravity is the Observer through something called a pullback operation and when y

ou realize that you realize that you don't naively quantize Gravity the way you quantize everything else in fact gravity is the only field living on the successor to space-time if I'm correct there are two spaces called X and Y all the cool stuff in here the electrons the quarks that make up everything that you and I are is living on y except for the metric the rulers and the protractors which lives on X which is how you keep gravity separate and the unification is the unification of these two t

hings in a structure called a bundle now people will go over this and I'm sure professors will say well this is what Eric was saying well he's full of [ __ ] no no he's actually making a point this story about space-time engineering where you don't use the Einstein field equations because you're using the successor Theory rather than in the Einstein theory the entire planet was pulling on you when you needed to go pee and your legs I mean obviously buff you're fit you just pulled against an enti

re planet to get out of your chair and you won that's how weak gravity is that's how space and time is barely Bent by all of Earth now you're going to tell me about an alcubieri warp drive where okay no here's what's going on the ship is inside of this little bubble of warping no it isn't if somebody's space-time engineering and they can get here from very far away they're not using general relativity in the standard model my friends they're using a successive Theory and we have become [ __ ] we

are not going to look at successor theories because we've all learned the lesson that everybody who tries to bet against the standard model loses everybody who bets against general relativity loses [Music]
