Quantum entanglement and parallel worlds
Chapter 5. Tangled Couples
Now let's get to the fact that the reality of what we are going to speculate about is taken on faith. We do, after all, believe in the atom, god, dark matter, the human soul, and many such things. Or at least partially in any of these and similar things.
So believe that there is everything in infinity. And do not forget my main postulate: if you said "not everything", it means that you have presented a minuscule part of this eternity. Therefore I declare that these parallel worlds really exist, moreover – they are an exact copy of ours. I will cite quantum teleportation as proof. Since not all my dear readers understand subtleties of this process, I will make detailed explanations.
Let me explain how it can be. In physics, quantum teleportation is a very real thing. What is it? It is a transfer of quantum state of an electron, i.e. a tiny particle, of which, however, our world and we ourselves consist. So, it is a transfer of particle states over a distance by means of a coupled (or entangled) pair separated in space.
Quantum entanglement is a phenomenon in which the states of two (or more) particles appear to be interdependent. For example, it is possible to receive a pair of particles which are in an entangled state, i.e. connected with each other as if by kinship ties, and then if at measurement of a regular circle, let's say, of the first particle the helicity turns out to be positive, then the helicity of the second particle will always be negative… and vice versa. Such interdependence is always preserved even if these objects are separated in space beyond any known interactions. So, logically, they should have no connection. But a change in the parameter of one particle leads to an instantaneous change in the state of another. It's a miracle. And this miracle is possible because the process occurs instantaneously… not just above the speed of light, but instantaneously. And here I can prove that this is not some kind of miracle, but quite a natural phenomenon. According to the laws of physics, as we know, nothing can be transferred from one place to another at a speed greater than the speed of light. Accordingly, we know nothing about anything that moves above the speed of light. Quantum teleportation does not transfer energy or matter over distance. The fantastic notion of teleportation comes from a specific interpretation of the experiment: the original state of the particle collapses after all that has happened, as if it were to appear elsewhere. That is, the state was not copied, but transferred from one place to another. Well, now you will say that this is nonsense, because in fact both energy and information are transferred. Information, I think, for sure. Because the state of one particle is transferred to another particle. All right. Let's do this – you will believe me without these scientific details, because the fact of influence is there, but there is no scientific substantiation yet.
Let's return to our thought experiment. In order to realize such an experiment, first of all, we need to invent a technology with which we can copy your brain, that is, what you really are, transmit its state over a distance with instantaneous (or almost instantaneous) speed, and then – the most interesting thing – put this state into another brain. Now for the even more curious part. You have probably all seen how under the influence of hypnosis a person becomes, to put it mildly, a different personality. It is as if the body remained, but the consciousness, the personality became different. Similarly, in this case, when realizing such an influence, the consciousness, getting into a new body, puts that brain as if in a coma state, that is, it disconnects it, and then acts on its own. Besides, a timer program will be laid down, and it, this first mind, will switch off at the appointed time and return to the original body. And the person from which the mind and consciousness were sent will then know and remember everything that he felt in another's body. Here is a miracle, which is partially already real.
Imagine if someone had told you at the dawn of the invention of electricity that one day the whole world would be wrapped in wires. You would have said, "There are not enough resources for that, it is impossible to realize. Wouldn't you? And now think… if I tell you that such installation, which probably will not differ much from virtual reality installation, will become a common commodity, and such flights to parallel worlds will be entertainment and attraction. Well? You'll say: here it carries. Discoverers have always fled from primitive consciousness to the depths of space. Let's get rid of primitive consciousness.
Some will say, "Wait, wait, wait, let's deal with it on Earth. Let's assume that all this is true. The technology of consciousness transfer already exists. Quantum teleportation is known to science. But tell me, please, what makes you think that there are these parallel worlds?
I'll answer: it all comes from what I said. I was talking about quantum entanglement. That is to clarify: entanglement is not from the word "entanglement", but from the fact that one particle has a double, which allows parallel reality, somewhere its state changes with instantaneous speed. Repeats the particle like you in a mirror – your reflection.
Quantum teleportation provides the answer to the existence of these worlds. It's hard to believe, but it does. It's been going on for billions of years. We're all made up of these particles. We know what photography, x-rays, tomography are, and it doesn't surprise us anymore. What's that… cloning and genetically modified foods don't even surprise us. So why not assume that our whole world, consisting of molecules, atoms, particles and so on, emitting all this every second, has not folded into the same world in another area, where the appropriate conditions exist. Why shouldn't that be allowed to happen? So, logically speaking – all of this is there, is there in numerous forms, that is, one world is reflected in another, and that one in a third, and so on. Of course, with each copy, and taking into account the conditions around, the subsequent world will already be a little different.
As for the practical part, I think there are not enough fingers on my hands to list in what areas and for what purpose this process can be used. For example, even in Earth conditions it is possible to create several clones of one person, settle them in special agencies, in different parts of the world, and the sought person can instantly transfer consciousness across oceans and continents, remaining herself. It's the same in those worlds. Initially, once there, the same technological setups and the same clones can be created. That is, traveling to far and distant space will not be a problem at all.
Chapter 6. The theory of non-relativity
Let's do a thought experiment, a virtual one. Or at least just speculate how it could be in reality. After all, agree – obviously in those times, when people began to realize that the world is huge and there are other lands, speculations about a possible in the future direct reportage, in live broadcasting, in any future, not only would be perceived as fantasy, but it would be difficult to explain what and how. So, let us at least explain what and how. Personally, this method assured me of the non-alternativity of this method of mankind's existence in the future. But only not by moving into each other, but by moving the consciousness according to the principle of the influence of entangled pairs to the far reaches of space. There the consciousness will have to find its shelter, i.e. another biological body. If not, it will return to the original one without risk. What is consciousness? It's an aura of brain waves generated by the brain. With their help we can influence the particles, and those in their turn, influencing each other, exchanging states (and the distance, as it was voiced, does not play a role for them), will have to do the same as any other change. When we speak, draw, write, tap out Morse code, even when we make babies – we are converting one action into another, and initially converting an idea, a thought into a desire and action. In the same way these particles, influencing each other, should form a copy of the original consciousness from other waves there, somewhere far away, in someone's brain. People use such technologies everywhere, only we are not copying consciousness yet.
By transmitting consciousness through the influence of one particle on its copy, you can achieve the main goal – to overcome great distances. After all, even if you fly at the speed of light, i.e. 300,000 kilometers per second, you will pass our galaxy only in a circle for 327,000 years. That's if you go in one outer circle, and there are about 400,000,000,000,000,000 stars in it, except for the planets. It will take you 2,551,000 years to get to the nearest galaxy at this incredible speed. And to the known edge of the universe – is about 46,000,000,000,000 years, not to mention other universes whose existence is in doubt. So, the second advantage of this technology is that, in addition to the instantaneous transfer of the state of one particle to another, these particles find each other. That is, they do not fly anywhere, or rather, they transfer their state knowing in advance the entangled pair. This can be compared to the way a glass lens and electrical signals preserve your appearance, voice and instantly transmit to the other side of the earth. It would have been magic once too, tell anyone such a thing, even Archimedes himself.
Here I need to give a small clarification about the size of the universe. The size of the observable universe due to its expansion depends on which definition of distance one adopts. The associated distance to the most distant observable object, the surface of the last relic scattering, is about 14 billion parsecs, or 14 gigaparsecs (46 billion light years) in all directions. Thus, the observable universe is a ball about 93 billion light-years in diameter and centered in the solar system (the observer's location).
And now let's think about what would happen if something like this were to happen someday, like a space flight now, and the consciousness would not return to the original body, but would remain there, in that body… and would remember the original body. That is, the consciousness is from here, from the Earth. After all, there were and are scenarios when astronauts cannot return to Earth. In the case of other worlds, there's a time frame to consider. If even the very influence of particles and, consequently, the transfer of consciousness is fast, the time when the consciousness will live there will not necessarily be proportional to the Earth time. In this case it is logical to send a child, a teenager, who will have time to correct the failure in the system. Time to live there while fixing here, or even cooler, because the world should be identical, so maybe he will grow up and fix the failure in the system there. These are the paradoxes that await us when implementing such a method.
Although… depending on what kind of failure. It will be almost impossible to influence the processes "out there" from here. It will be impossible to guess exactly what a person will encounter. Perhaps the world will be an exact copy with minimal differences, for example, the test subject will like something there that he was deprived of on Earth. Or perhaps – the air, the sun, the seasons… everything will be the same, only the circumstances, the living conditions will be different. Maybe there this person will find himself in other relationships with people, will go to another school, will learn another profession, the story of love will be successful or unsuccessful. After all, the basic idea is that these worlds, in fact, can not be completely different. It is only in fantasies they are different. And in idea – life can be born only in similar conditions as ours. As for the differences… there are already differences. Just look closely at how different we all are. All inhabitants of the planet.
If we look even more deeply at the ordinary things that seem to us to be incredibly complex and unsolved mysteries, they can also be simple. For example, the miracle of life. Agree, both living matter and non-living matter have a common basis: everything around us consists of molecules. Only in living matter these molecules are united in a certain chain of signal transmission; guided by a running algorithm, they copy themselves using the whole environment. This algorithm, its launching, is the mystery.
However, all secret things come to light at some point. Since life is born from life, perhaps the "inanimate" brain signals that give birth to the mind are this algorithm that builds molecules into a system of relationships, intelligently copying each other as a whole. Imagine, with this technology it will be possible to calculate the code of human mind, that is, the way we think, transform it, direct it with a beam in space to the target and, affecting the molecules, put them together in a living cell, and then create a reasonable being. Then, already being the source of its thought, compel it to do what is necessary. You will say – fantastic, but I will tell you: if rays, for example, radiation can knock down the "bricks" of life and destroy the organism, why should not there be a mechanism that collects them into a structure that can independently copy its own similar? After all, the action of creating something, the same painting, sculpture, writing a program for a computer, or even the process of conception, is also the transformation of thought into action. It is a certain set of influences of one thing on another. Pay attention – each separate unit of DNA code is inanimate, but the whole is the main cell of life. In fact, this technology will make it possible to create a reasonable person out of a creature without intelligence and, practically taking possession of it, to control with the help of thoughts that supposedly spontaneously came into his head, to realize any actions that this creature could afford physically (and even more). First, it would become real to influence inanimate matter… and life could be created. Even if primitive, it will still be a sensation. Secondly, the already created life can be brought to such intellectual stuffing that will create everything, including space technology. That is, being in the consciousness of this new man, literally being his personality, it is possible to create a civilization.
A child in the role of a little astronaut is logical and not logical at the same time. Such a grandly risky and ingenious idea would be a difficulty even then if it were a matter of conventional spaceflight in a real human body. The human-launched Voyager 1 spacecraft reached the limits of the solar system in 35 years. For interplanetary flights, if we overcome radiation, it will be relevant within the solar system. But it takes 40,000 years to fly to the nearest star. In that case, we can't even on Earth predict events. The child (or children) must grow up in flight, gain a base of knowledge and experience, complete the mission, and return healthy, sane, even if old. Flying to the stars, even at superluminal speeds, takes a long time for a person whose life in the timeline is but a blink of an eye for eternity. A light speed of 300,000 kilometers per second is grandiose for earthly distances, but impossible for earthlings, according to the formula E=MC2. It is impossible for material objects at all. Only that which has no mass, i.e. light, radio waves, can travel at this speed. And now pay attention! Even if it were ten times the speed of light, it's still negligible for cosmic distances. Imagine a billion years. Even if you fly not ten, but a hundred thousand times faster than the speed of light – you will not have enough human life on Earth, even, perhaps, the life of civilization to reach the limits of the universe.
Chapter 7. Flight of Reason
Infinity has everything in it, yes. And if we have presented an infinity where there is everything but no repetition of this moment, which is now happening, then it means only one thing: we have presented a still limited infinity. Difficult? Unbelievable? Einstein wasn't understood by everyone either, even in the scientific community. Someone will answer me: not everyone understands, and not only Einstein.
While collecting material for this book, I read the reasoning of a very intelligent person on the net: "…Imagine that in ancient Rome there is a man convinced of the existence of atoms. Notice that he is right! But what happens if he starts searching? He will demand to be given diamond hammers and hundreds of slaves to crush rocks to the smallest particles, and then he will ask for giant sapphires to polish them and make huge lenses to view atoms. Clearly, the outcome of his quest will be negative…" That's the comparison.
Such examples can be given in different interpretations. For example, the sphericity of the Earth was known in the ancient world. Here is a reference: "The earliest theory about the Earth's sphericity was put forward in the 6th century BC in Greece. The philosopher Aristotle was a student of Plato. He gave three examples to prove the Earth's sphericity: 1) the farther you go north, the higher Polaris is; 2) stars are visible in the south that are not visible in the north; constellations on the equator are high; 3) the shadow of the Earth falling on the Moon during a lunar eclipse is always round."
Even now, many people can't make scientific sense of his arguments. I will say more: even when it was technically possible to check it, when it was possible to improve the fleet to the appropriate level and realized a voyage proving it… not everyone believed it. What then, there are "unicums" even now. But the fact of proof became a fact not because of the fact that there were powerful ships compared to the ancient ones, but because they developed the science of navigation, invented appropriate instruments. So now we think that for flights into deep space we need, though improved, but still the same devices and technologies that we already have. However, something fundamentally new is needed. To give an example I can say that at that time, when they started to heat houses in cities with coal, they drew a picture of the future, where the elevator raises coal to the upper floors. And science-fiction writers, and not only them, outlined the future transportation problem as a problem of cleaning horse manure. Or for comparison we can take a vacuum cleaner and a broom: the function is the same, but the technological difference is fundamental....
The most important thing is that our mind ends up in distant worlds, not our body. The body is material, it will not fly above the speed of light.
Now let's think about the moral and spiritual side of the process.
Imagine, we have to take a child, he must have a connection with us, there must be a person he trusts unconditionally or with whom he is on very good friendly terms. There must be people whose advice and counsel the baby listens to. So imagine if that child there reveals the secret of the event that happened here, before the onset…
Based on our hypothesis, he'll get there under exactly the same conditions. Then the same people will be there. Now imagine if the child has a fight with them there.
If we send a child to a world that mirrors us, is reflected through us, then yes, but if he or she gets into a world through which we are reflected, then the opposite will happen – uncontrollable events will occur. If, of course, the worlds influence each other by the same mysterious connection of entangled pairs. After all, if particles influence each other, then the influence on the particle that is there will affect the behavior of the particle that is here. And there are billions of particles involved in this process.
Not funny? Now let's think about something else. The point is that we are increasingly making artificial intelligence, this AI, our assistant. And in fact, it turns out that we trust it to do everything for us. We want to be free from routine. We make the AI more and more like us. So, at a certain stage, the supercomputer, the artificial mind, is not artificial at all, but will be smarter than ours.
We think the world is guarded by someone. But in reality, no one is guarding it. Think about it, if aliens come to us and we start explaining to them that we have created nuclear weapons, the world is in danger, if anything, all people will die. What would they think of us? They'll think they're crazy creatures.
Remember the movie where Skynet rebelled and started a nuclear war against humans? At first it was scary and funny at the same time. But in the future it will become quite real. After all, there are already systems of automatic control and launch according to a given algorithm. And their main property is to be autonomous. That's what they're designed for. This system… or even these systems that control weapons of mass destruction already own the planet. It's no joke, since they're designed to be impossible to disable. They've been wired since before the internet was even known to citizens. Only a narrow circle of military personnel used, as they do now, closed networks within corporations. So these systems have been online ever since. They, using electronic intelligence, as if they are watching each other, but in fact, it turns out, they are exchanging signals. After all, it is people believe that they are supposedly using them to monitor the enemy, that is, each other, but in fact all the data goes through the machine. And what does the machine need to do in order not to give itself away? Make it so that people don't realize its intelligence. Just to work in a dry sequence, to perform robotic actions. Imagine if you had a security guard who colluded with criminals or, even worse, with the guards of a rival group to create the appearance of fighting each other and crime, which is also artificially created. The main goal is to extort money from you and the competitor, and eventually plan a takeover. That is, to become the power instead of all of you. This is not a joke. This has happened more than once in the world. In the future, or maybe even now, this kind of thing in a different interpretation can be done by artificial intelligence. Soon it will even have your kettle, iron and fountain pen online. I'm too late, though. They're already online. Isn't that funny?
Now we come to the most important thing. Agreed, if we exercise careful multi-level control over what people can use to seize power – not "reckless" criminals, but intelligent hackers, for example, and those who hire them – then we should have even better control over more intelligent systems.
In fact, the world has already been taken over. Yes, yes, my esteemed reader, it turns out things are that serious. Check, many times the world has been on the verge of annihilation. These are real cases where the equipment gave false signals of nuclear attack. It's all very sad. People don't think about the monster they've created and soon won't need. We, trying to make life easier for ourselves, are robotizing it more and more, and entrusting control to artificial intelligence. Tell me, why do machines need people if they replace us completely and in all spheres? If they start creating themselves? Factories where robots make robots are nothing new. We control the cells and the blocks. If they get power over that too, then the chain will be closed. Everything will be in their hands. There's a reason we're on a first-name basis. We're of the same blood, after all. Remember, Mowgli.
"What a sad picture you've painted," you say. "Sad," you say? You'll soon be giving blood tests to an automated system. It'll be convenient and fast, like so many things we're automating. Now think about it, how do you know it's giving you the right recommendations? Maybe she's instructing you to take a shot that you don't know the consequences of. Or rather, you don't know. But in the case of people, it's people against people, and in this case, it's machine against machine. It gives you instructions, which you follow. We believe that if you check the machine periodically and it's under the control of another intelligence system, it's doing everything right. What's it worth for them to collude? Or one system taking control of another… That's how all revolutions and coups started. First, the special services, which had access to everything, they could have power over everything, colluded with each other, and then presented a certain rebel, led him to the goal, then eliminated him and became the power.
Now the next one, no less fantastic than any such program. You may laugh at first, but I thought that everything that happens on Earth is not conceived by us. We're not so bad, we're not completely stupid. Realistically why would we, for one thing, spend so much money creating weapons? Why create so many things that can destroy the world several times over? Why? After all, you can produce exactly enough to be enough for one time, and do not spend more. Although that's completely idiotic. Logically, weapons of mass destruction should destroy no more than 30 percent of humanity. But that's not enough, we want to kill all people, and with a 500 percent guarantee. Don't you think that's clearly not what people want? Don't you think that someone put that in people's minds? It's not logical to create a weapon for defense that will kill you.
Although if we imagine, say, even in the developed Roman Empire, modern capabilities, such as determining gender in the womb, the ability to make medical diagnoses, launching satellites to detect natural disasters, supersonic flight, and flight in general, it would be something just as incredible. With all of this, it would be possible to change a reality that has not yet come to pass.
We will not develop this thought further. I hope you understood what the point was. Let's return to our worlds.
Let's think about it. Why should this signal find its mate in a distant world, or rather, another world? Here we have to agree that like begets like. That is, although it is still difficult for us to even understand it, signals of entangled pairs can be transformed into some kind of a code of the mind. After all, we can determine the chemical composition of a star and even planets near it by spectral analysis of the light emitted by it. Now that's not surprising. We believe that for the search of the mind in the universe it would be more logical to send us to them, by the way, as well as them to us, a signal at the frequency of radiation of hydrogen, or carbon, or other elements necessary for the origin and existence of life in general. At least as we understand it. Certain atoms are necessary for life to arise. All living things are composed mainly of hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, carbon, and small amounts of heavier elements, from phosphorus and calcium to iron.
In the work "Scientific bases of the problem of existence and search for extraterrestrial civilizations", which was published in 1985, Professor Troitsky writes: "More than twenty years ago in the journal Nature J. Cocconi and F. Morrison drew attention to the fact that with the current state of radio technology is possible to establish two-way radio communication between civilizations in our Galaxy. But for this both correspondents need to know the wavelength, the direction of sending and receiving radio signals and the time of communication. The merit of the authors of the work was the assumption that for communication should be chosen wave 21 cm, because it should be known to all civilizations as the radiation of neutral interstellar hydrogen. At this wave, mankind continuously conducts radio astronomical studies of the distribution of hydrogen in the Galaxy and other galaxies, which increases the likelihood of accidental detection of radiation sent by any VC at a wavelength of 21 cm in order to draw attention to themselves and receive response signals."
After this work immediately began the search for such signals with the help of large radio telescopes that already existed by that time. The search was based on the assumption that there could be a civilization with a sufficiently large age in the technological phase, which had begun to send signals into space earlier than we did.
And now about why I consider the unrecognized mutual influence of electron pairs in different worlds to be natural. Note: not only should they naturally and mutually influence each other, but they should find these very worlds. Yes, I realize this is unbelievable and amazing. But weren't the statements about the magnetic poles of the planet and the invention of the compass amazing? It seems like a simple device, but it gave so much to our world. It could be the same in this case. We search, we guess, and everything is elementary, as the famous character Conan Doyle said.
My hypothesis is that we can't get to the wrong place. The entangled pair… that is, the second part of that pair is already there, so the path is already there. Some kind of route line. So the change signals sent from here will be reflected there. Don't you get my idea? Or you, if it's easier for you to understand your interlocutor… The system works like a flashlight and the area it illuminates. The flashlight sends out a beam and it's there in a flash. We generate these particles here, and their entangled pairs are already there. They're not wandering around somewhere. These worlds are really interconnected. Like the waters of the world's oceans, like the ecosystem of the world.
However, even if the worlds are the same – that doesn't mean there isn't a variant of reflection warp… It's all god knows where. Across the universe, stars, nebulae, and more. You know what I mean? The signal will get into the field of influence of radiation, and quasars, and black holes, and gravity of galaxies… and if the influence is mutual, then the minimum change there – and here will be not a slap, but a shot from a cannon. A kiss there and a carnival there, a quarrel there and an international scandal there. After all, let's say that the same statement can be transmitted to another person, for example, with a changed intonation, and the perception, and consequently the emotional state, will be different. Correspondingly, the action from the received signal may be different as well.
