One that refers to an larger time frame than you are probably thinking of. See several of Newton's laws of physics having exceptions the scientific community was not aware of for a long time.
I am not saying this going to happen in any of our lifetimes. But given a large enough time-frame, I am pretty sure most of our current understanding will turn out to be terribly inaccurate at an absolute level (although a good approximation based on what we currently understand)
- AnimalMuppet 10y agoFor any time frame that spans the human race, I consider it highly unlikely that we will find any exceptions to the speed of causality. Yes, I recognize that the possibility exists. Yes, I recognize that our understanding of the laws of physics grows over time. "Quite likely"? Still no.
- Practicality 10y agoI didn't say it was likely we would find something violate causality, I said it was likely we would find exceptions to some of the laws of physics. I know those sentences were next to each other, so I could have separated the flow of my thoughts a little better. I thought causality was something not-as-well-proven as it currently is (because the history of QM always explains lots of interpretations where causality is broken). However, I stand corrected on that point :)
