 Professor Brian Cox Proves That Time Travel Is Possible With This Amazing Experiment


Is time travel possible? This age-old question has fascinated people for generations. While science fiction often portrays time machines that travel both to the past and future, real-world physics tells a different story. In an astonishing experiment, world-renowned physicist and TV presenter Professor Brian Cox offers a new insight into time travel that is rooted in real science.

Well, we might find the answer in this amazing video.




The Experiment: Proving Time Travel

Professor Cox, who is also a fan of *Doctor Who*, conducted an experiment to demonstrate the possibility of time travel. He didn't rely on Hollywood-style time machines but used principles from Einstein's theory of relativity. The key idea behind his experiment is that time does not tick at the same rate for everyone, especially when dealing with extreme speeds and gravitational forces.


Einstein's theory states that the faster you travel, the slower time moves for you compared to someone who is standing still. This means that if you could travel close to the speed of light, time would slow down for you, allowing you to travel into the future. This concept is known as "time dilation."


The Result: Traveling Into the Future

Professor Cox concluded that time travel is indeed possible, but only into the future. By moving at a speed close to the speed of light, one could travel years into the future, while only a few minutes might pass for the traveler. However, Cox emphasized that time travel to the past remains impossible, at least with our current understanding of physics.



The Physics Behind It

The experiment showed how objects with immense speed experience time differently. Astronauts in space, for instance, experience time just a tiny bit slower than people on Earth due to their high speeds. This has been observed in many space missions and proves the fundamental principles of time dilation in real life.

 

Conclusion: Future Time Travel

While time travel into the past may remain a dream for now, Professor Cox's experiment demonstrates that traveling into the future is scientifically possible. By harnessing the power of speed and gravity, we can begin to understand the strange and fascinating ways that time works.

His conclusion: Time travel is possible, but not into the past but only into the future!

What’s Lighting Up the Night Sky This August? Here Are the Top 7 Astronomical Events

  What’s Lighting Up the Night Sky This August? Here Are the Top 7 Astronomical Events August is here, and with it comes the bittersweet feeling of summer winding down. But before we trade warm nights for cooler ones, the sky has a few spectacular reminders of why this season is worth staying up late for. This month, the sky is unusually busy, showcasing rare planetary alignments, a beloved meteor shower at its peak, and several planetary “close encounters” that promise more than just wishful thinking. Here are the top seven celestial spectacles you won’t want to miss as summer makes its graceful exit. 9 August: Full Moon Summer nights are slowly getting shorter, but August still holds its ground as one of the best months for skywatching. On 9 August, the Full Moon, traditionally known as the Sturgeon Moon, will light up the sky. It rises and bathes the UK’s night in silvery drama from sunset until dawn with peak illumination at  07:55 GMT (08:55 AM in the UK). The name...

A secret second moon for Earth? New discovery shocks scientists

 Astronomers discover previously unknown quasi-moon near Earth      An artist's illustration depicts a typical asteroid. Quasi-moon 2025 PN7 is an asteroid that orbits the sun          but appears close to Earth.   JPL-Caltech/NASA Astronomers have spotted a quasi-moon near Earth — and the small space rock has likely been hanging out near our planet unseen by telescopes for about 60 years, according to new research.           The newly discovered celestial object, named 2025 PN7, is a type of near-Earth asteroid that orbits the sun but sticks close to our planet. Like our world, 2025 PN7 takes one year to complete an orbit around the sun. Quasi-moons differ from temporary mini-moons that occasionally orbit Earth such as  2024 PT5 , which circled the planet for two months in 2024 and could be an ancient fragment that was blasted off of our primary moon. The newly found 2025 PN7 is just one of a handful of k...

Radio Wave- and X-Ray-Emitting Star is Unlike Anything Astronomers Have Seen in Our Galaxy

  Radio Wave- and X-Ray-Emitting Star is Unlike Anything Astronomers Have Seen in Our Galaxy ASKAP J1832-0911  — likely a magnetar or an extremely magnetized white dwarf — emits pulses of radio waves and X-rays for two minutes every 44 minutes, according to a  paper  published in the journal  Nature . A composite of radio, X-ray, and infrared emission of the field of ASKAP J1832-0911. Image credit: Wang  et al ., doi: 10.1038/s41586-025-09077-w. ASKAP J1832-0911 is located approximately 15,000 light-years away from Earth in the constellation of Scutum. The star was discovered by astronomers using the ASKAP radio telescope in Australia. It belongs to a class of objects called long-period radio transients,  first spotted  in 2022, that vary in radio wave intensity in a regular way over tens of minutes. This is thousands of times longer than the length of the repeated variations seen in pulsars, which are rapidly spinning neutron stars that have rep...
