Someone smarter than you once concluded at the end of their esteemed human career as a famous Terra physicist that the past, present, and future all exist simultaneously. Not only did this concept bring him a since of immortality, as every moment is indelibly etched forever into the framework of infinity, but it guided his thought processes throughout his professional career.

Einstein once said that time is an illusion. A persistent one, but an illusion none the less. He also said that as objects speed up in an inertial frame relative to other objects, time for the relatively moving object slows down.

Actually, I seriously paraphrased! The gist of it is that time itself can and does change relative to motion. As such, it is possible to slow time down as one gets faster. Odd really, but with fantastically awesome repercussions for the possibility of traveling back in time!

Now, if you are in a really cool spaceship, say one with ten thousand years of innovation in it, and you are getting faster and faster, you will get closer and closer to the speed of light. Here’s the weird bit. You will NEVER go faster than the speed of light. But your speedometer will continue to show that you are!!! What is happening outside your ship is that you are going back in time! Well, that’s one theory. If you ever watched the original series of Battlestar Galactica, the gang use this principle to head back in time to help stop the Nazis in early 20th century earth from developing too much dangerous technology.

I will add here that most physicists agree that putting increasing amounts of energy into moving your ship will just make your spaceship denser. True. But what happens when your density crosses over the threshold of normality and you effectively become a mini black hole? Remember something; black holes are so dense that not even light can escape their gravitational pull. If your spaceship and its occupants are increasing their density as a unit, where no one part is getting denser faster than any other, then your ship will all together phase out of normal space time as soon as the correct density occurs. Hyperspace.! Theory of course but man is it ever intriguing to think about.

Another very plausible theory involves moving a wormhole end node close to the speed of light so that that it moves out of phase in time relative to the other node. One issue with this theory is that stable wormholes are tricky to make, and you can only go back in time to a time after the wormhole time machine was created.

So what on EARTH is this posting about? What does the above geeky burblings have to do with MARS base and alleged other goodies that I am sure you are desperate to find out about?

A ‘Rock’ on Mars…

Well, I will direct you to the source of my inspiration. An article by the ever skeptical examiner website, where a certain fascinating prose hit their synapses, impressing them enough to declare that it ‘got their attention’! Must be good then.

I know it will be old hat to anyone who follows the Disclosure Project. Big deal, the people have been lied to. “Yeah I know that we got to Mars and have mining and terraforming experiments there”. Well hold onto your hats people, because what got my attention was the indication that we live in a society so sheltered from the greater extraterrestrial reality that it would make the Ewoks look positively high tech compared to us.

If what the above article indicates is true, and you believe it, prepare for your already open mind to get even more drafty. Just don’t let your brains fall out!
