alians and how could they get 2 earth

[chimp_86_86]

we know that alians can not travel at the speed of light because it is inposibull but can they travel through different dimentions or parelell plane

You can displace faster than light. A wormhole has no length, if you pass through it you come out instantly with the same speed, momentum etc. as when you went in. If the two hols where light-years apart you could travel faster than light although your speed wouldn't violate the speed of light. Its a cheat but it works. Also warp drives and superluminal highways are theoretically possible.PArallel planes and dimensions are rubbish though. A Dimension is simply a quantity or characteristic that an object must have but that doesn't affect the other dimesnions. Hence somethings height doesn't affect its width and the position in time doesn't affect the position in space. At least not mathematically and not necessarily, although you do grow as you get oilder it is not a mathematical formula, people are different heights, and no matter how long you look at an atom irt won't get bigger as it gets older. (also people don't count as they are made of atoms, still it illustrates the point well)

Zevon, I'm very skeptical about your answer. What theories allow and don't allow are very wish-washy. Also, just because the mathmatics allows it, it doesn't mean it could happen.

[Zevon]

Tunneling does exist. Look at quantum tunneling microscopes that allow people to look at the atomic makeup of a surface, wormholes are highly plausible not just in theory but may naturally exist. Warp drives have problems, mainly to do with causlaity problems linked with controlling the bubble. Still possible. the problem lies in the distinction between what is theoretically possible and what sounds theoretically possible.

[Zevon]

Sorry to mention quantum tunneling but it illustrates the point about theory, reality and common sense conflicting well.

[fo3nix]

Quantum tunneling is a completely different issue.

[Zevon]

Yes i know i thought i was on adifferent thread, but displacement is a valid idea, it doesn't violate anything and may occur naturally. we haven't seen it, but we haven't seen ice ages or the inside of an atom.

Contrary to popular belief, we have actaully seen evolution occur.
