I'd like to know if the idea allows for the transmission of information from one aeon to the next? If so, how much information? Enough to write a short message in ascii, or to encode a vast library of the most exquisite artifacts discovered in a search whose genesis lies in the infinitely distant past? What about the mind state of a creature, and instructions for its reconstitution? Is it possible to as it were, throw oneself into the next aeon?
- Voloskaya 6y agoYes, see the "CCC and the Fermi Paradox" paper [1] by Gurzadyan and Penrose himself talking about exactly that. You can also look into "Information Panspermia" [2]. Relevant bits: > "From our own limited and relatively extremely primitive perspective, much more promising would undoubtedly be electromagnetic signals (although neutrinos just conceivably present us with another possibility). The conformal invariance of Maxwell’s equations allow us the possibility of such signals surviving the crossover from one aeon to the next-provided that the wavelength is long enough to avoid excessive scattering by charged particles in the early stages of the subsequent aeon." > "Alternatively, there is the idea of information panspermia, introduced in [12], and attributed as ”Solution 23 to Fermi paradox” in [2], i.e. the propagation of the ”life codes” by the use of such signals, like the bit strings of human genome and of other species of terrestrial life" [1] https://arxiv.org/pdf/1512.00554.pdf https://arxiv.org/pdf/1512.00554.pdf [2] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Information_panspermia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Information_panspermia
