"After Decades of Speculation, Physicists Finally Confirm the Existence of 'Time Mirrors'".
I love reading stories about complex scientific themes. Many times - as in this case - I don't really comprehend them, but I love those science-y vibes!

A physicist I am not, and my understanding of electronics is pretty much basic. But the gist of the article appears to say that there may be a paradigm shift when it comes to how electromagnetic systems are built.
ReplyDeleteFor example, if I understand this correctly, the techniques for managing frequency translations (moving from one part of the electromagnetic spectrum to another) get smaller and more precise.
Frequency translation is fundamental in all communications, but most especially in audio, such as your voice. This is how your voice through a cell phone is converted to a radio signal and back to audio on the receiving end.
I don't know about managing energy flow (say, what happens in a transformer, or in a switching yard). Definitely above my head.
I look forward to further developments on this topic ... ...
I have several 'time mirrors' in my house. I know they are time mirrors because every time I look at them they show an old man looking back, and I think "Why does this mirror show me in the future, when I'm still a young man?"
