Is movement continuous? Suppose it is continuous, then movement of an object will need an infinite amount of data to record it. Our brains are finite therefore we will never be able to observe continuous movement. Also, we will never be able to build a machine that can record the continuous movement of an object. Therefore we can safely assume that continuous movement do not exist. Therefore all movement will be discrete and anything that move will move in jerks.
Then comes the subject of space. Is space continuous? It seems to be so. Space cannot be discrete because if so speed of light cannot be same in all reference frames.
Zeno's paradox of motion solved. space is continuous but time is discrete. Therefore continuous motion does not exist in the continuous space.
Length and time have very different qualities unlike in science fiction.
Three dimensions of length is continuous and time is not continuous but discrete.
No time travel, no wormholes,
I started reading philosophy. And found out most of what I was thinking before are connected to it's subjects. I thought to jot down here, notes, as I read. Further, I have a liking on Physics, some notes are added about that subject.

Meaning of words, Language
Words represent repetitions of data of the environment. Prepositions that bring together words to form sentences are the higher level of repetitions of repetitions.
Higher ideas are reputations of repetitions of repetitions. This can go on to more higher levels. Certain subjects like physics are related in finding higher levels in certain areas.
The human brain is smart, in fact smartest, it will try to find patterns even when there are no patterns. No patterns in physical data. This is ethics, metaphysics, beliefs, conscience, goodness, honesty, morality. These patterns will definitely have gaps, human brain fill these gaps by correlating to some other patterns. The funny thing is we can never show either there are patterns or not.

Locomotion
Dictionary meaning of Locomotion is ability to move from one place to another. Parmenides ideas about locomotion and Zeno's paradoxes arise because we assume smooth motion. In reality smooth i.e. continuous motion do not exist.
Quantum Theory is compatible with discrete motion. Take the example of hydrogen atom, the movement of electron and proton, consists of discrete jumps from one energy state to another. In reality free electrons or protons may not exist. Each of these may have an singular opposite. Each electron and proton live in pairs. When they are far apart the jumps are very infinitesimal. But being so is not an argument for continuous motion. Though it may be very difficult to identify at any instance one electron will interact only with one proton. And movement is in jumps.
Curvature of the space by gravitation by General Relativity is an explanation if we accept space time coordinate systems. Special Relativity has lot of problems. These problems will obviously leak into General Relativity.
Motion and space may be concepts created by our own brain. This is not an argument against motion or space, that such things do not exist. There may be some type of activity where our human brain interprets those as motion and space.
Consider the simple case of two objects moving towards each other. If there is no independent observer the movement of one object will not have any bearing with the other - here we disregard gravitation.
In usual practice, we consider that the independent observer have nothing to do with the motion of the two objects. But is it correct? There is no motion without the observer.

Length contraction
Can length dilation can it happen? Special Relativity do not state length will dilate perpendicular to motion.
However, The alternative theory has length dilation perpendicular to motion.
Consider a disk and a hole that fits the disc exactly both at rest to each other. Then these two objects are slowly parted. Then both are given a velocity and made to move to each other.Then suppose both moves towards each other at velocity v.
Then with respect of the hole the disc will move with velocity v towards the hole. While, with respect of the disc the hole will move at velocity v towards the disc.
If length dilation is correct both will dilate and further there is noway of knowing there is actually any contraction of space.

Mathamatics in Science
Mathematics do not explain anything. Used singularly it gives only tautologies. But it can combine empirical evidence and show us hitherto unseen facts.
New Relativity
In Special and General Relativity an moving object will appear the same irrespective to observing angle to the movement. But observers can be placed in four points that will have different visions of the moving object.
If this situation is applied to an electron orbiting a proton in a hydrogen atom. The effects decided by A and B will be related to quantum mechanics. But observers C and D will observe space dilation. Stationary electron will be swelled, but when moving at high speeds around proton it will shrink.
Lorentz Transformation goes as:

Lorentz Transformation goes as:
- It is very evident in special relativity there is no effect for y and z axis.
- What I propose is a dilation in y and z axis. x axis should be available for quantum theory.
Time Dilation Proof
Several experimental results are being offered as proof of Time Dilation are they correct?
Moving muons should have a longer lifetime than resting ones. Relativity means relativity, i.e. actions are relative. Therefore something is at rest is also a relative concept.
A muon moving towards earth is moving relative to earth. But it is not moving from itself. A muon should have a surrounding environment. At least, this environment should be the space occupied by the muon. And a moving muon is not moving out of it's own environment. Therefore though a muon moving relative to earth increases decay time, it cannot increase decay time relative to its own environment. Therefore reduction of decay time due to time dilation leads to a contradiction.
There can be other reasons for the increase of decay time.
Particle decay is governed by the exponential decay — Pioson Distribution — where N is the quantity and λ is a positive rate called the exponential decay constant
Here N(t) is the quantity at time t, and N0 = N(0) is the initial quantity, i.e. the quantity at time t = 0.
Therefore decay probability or half life will depend on two things λ and t. Therefore either time dilation proposed by Special Relativity or changes in decay constant λ may be the reason for changes in decay time.
We assume λ is a constant but for some unknown reason it may depend on velocity relative to earth. Therefore there exists an alternative explanation other than Special Relativity for changes in muon decay time.
The same can be said about atomic clocks that show moving clocks runs slower. Atomic clocks are also related to atomic decay?????.
Also in particle accelerators if decay time reduction is observed it may be due to the same reason?????

Human Brain and Quantum Theory
Lot of philosophers have said that God is the super mind. Each human being have a mind. All these minds are different. And at the same time all these minds have lot of similarities. If we create the super mind with all the good qualities of all of humans we get a super mind - this is one of the interpretation of God.
This human super mind has to be different that of a lion or any other animal. Lions vision is catered to find a pray. This shows that the makeup of a lions brain is very different of humans. The male lion kills the cubs not sired by him, then the mother of the cubs willingly cohabit with it's cub killer. This behavior is nonexistent in humans. So configuration of brains of lions and humans are very different. God of lions will be different from God of humans.
The world is perceived by our brains. When we define the qualities and attributes of the world around us, we assume that we can do a good job doing it independent of our brains. This is a mistake. It is evident from the discoveries of quantum theory and connected subjects of physics.
For instance 1+1 = 2 or A and B is true if and only if A is true and B is true, these are eternal truths according to our brain. What if we are wrong! What if these are just constructs of our brains. suppose someone has a gut feeling that 1+1 is not 2. Then we say that he is a lunatic. We have a group of people who has a gut feeling that 1+1 = 2. These are the normal people, these are the scientists and so on.
These normal people cannot comprehend how two distant particles can be entangled in such a way when qualities of one is derived the distant other half derives the opposite. When it is observed entities behave like particles and when unobserved behaves like waves.
The classical theories that can be comprehended by our brains cannot explain these pronominal.
If at some stage we can come up with a theory that could explain these effects then we can put in our basket of understanding our environment, what is happening. Sometimes it may not be possible. At the time when people considered the earth is flat not a globe they could not comprehend certain phenomena. They could not in the beginning understand that world is a globe even after someone explained it. In this way gradually people started believing earth is a globe. Now if someone say it is flat he will be considered as a lunatic
Similarly try to explain the properties of a torus to a two dimensional creature. If the torus is vertical and cut by a horizontal plane we get only two circles. Suppose the torus is horizontal the the circles will be one inside the other. If the torus is slanted the circles will not have the same center. This is what a two dimensional creature will see. In no way you will be able to explain to this two dimensional creature, what a torus is. But there is a certain tool where it can be done. It is mathematics! Using a algebraic equation of a torus, a two dimensional creature will be able to know it's properties. In this way using mathematics we have come to know most of the intricate details of our surroundings. But we can never be able to know all the details. When a new theory in physics is formed we come to know certain details. But we miss a lot.

Wave Particle Duality, observability and predictability of a particle in contrast to a wave
One major effect I observed in experiments is that, it is not an observer being present or observing an event that matters, but observability of an particle. That is if a moving particle is not observable it will result in a wave.
Therefore the Heisenberg Principal need to be extended, by adding that non-observable character also must be present for a particle in addition to having a velocity for the particle to act as a wave.
The other side of the coin will be, when observabilty is present in a wave, it fails to act as a wave and will be acting like a particle.
Whenever this factor of observability is erased, like in the quantum eraser, it starts to act again like a wave.
A particle is a bundle of matter. It is capable of controlling the distribution of matter within itself. This is the basic factor that differs a particle from a wave. A wave is free, there is no restriction of it's distribution. The only factor that controls a wave is it will move forward at the velocity of the wave. In contrast a particle moves as a compact bundle of energy. The particle has a controlled movement, it is different from a wave which has a more free movement. The path of a particle is more predictable than that of a wave. This predictability gives the quality of the particle in contrast to a wave. However, this predictability can be reduced by a moving particle, Heisenberg Principal, then it starts to show wave like properties.
Another Idea:
It may be the reason for particle wave duality is not because of some real world phenomena but because of our powers of observation. It is because how our brain works. All observation is designed by human brain so observation is dependent on human brain.
This can be thought as how a cat sees the world which is very different of humans. We assume that our observational powers are supreme and we see all that happens. What if not?

Binary theory of space time
Heisenberg
Uncertainty Principle is a derivation of a larger principal which
says when information is available in a certain event the behavior of
the participants are modified.
Traveling
of a wave or particle can be seen as a transmission of information
from one location to another. Even location can be considered as
information, then traveling is change of information.
A
particle is at a certain location at a certain time is information.
This applies even to a wave. The difference is, a wave gives lesser
amount of information.
We
may be able to visualize the universe not as a system where waves and
particles are located at a certain instant, but as a system of
information only.
Waves
and particles are a convenience given to us by our senses.
All information of the universe can be represented by a binary map meaning that all information of the universe in an instant can be given by a binary number. After any change in the next instant it can be shown by a different binary number.
Another thing change from one instant to another instant only one binary can change, multiple binaries cannot change. This may be treated as a definition at the moment, until it is proved why it has to be so.
Flow of time is a series of changes in the binary number. We do not need a different definition for time, outside this binary number, since we treat change of universe is a basic attribute and change of one binary as the basic change. The larger the binary number the smaller the change becomes. The size of the binary number is limited by the size of the universe. It should be noted that this binary number incorporates all particles of the universe as well as all waves, visible matter, dark matter and even dark energy.
This binary number is finite, at the moment it is accepted that the universe is finite, therefore it is compatible to treat this number as finite.
Unfortunately this binary number will explain only the classical physics, quantum theory and uncertancy principal need modifications to zeros and ones. It may be necessary to be replaced by a probability function.
Further, to incorporate principal of causality, we need to connect in some way, or link two or more locations of zeros and ones.
