"time crystals"
Am I the only one who thinks science is starting to sound more and more like magic?
- dictum 10y agoNext we find out Earth really has 4 corner simultaneous 4-day time cube within single rotation.
- jclem 10y agoGene?
- DonHopkins 10y agoThe Wisest Man on Earth!
- prefect42 10y agoSounds more like acid, IMO.
- eternalban 10y agoThe name is whimsical. A "crystal" is a repeated pattern in space. So a "time crystal" is a pattern repeated in time.
- throwawayish 10y agoOh. That makes a lot more sense. Thanks
- jessaustin 10y agoIt made me think of Iron Council, in which "golems" are constructed of more and more esoteric phenomena (wood and stone are "easy", but then they're made from fire and moonlight [during the daytime, apparently it required a deep shaft and the new moon passing over at just the right time]), until at the climax a "time-golem" is created.
