  1. sir I’ve to tell you that probably I’ve an impossible idea to look into future.
    Suppose light from a star reaches the earth in one million years,(they travel with velocity of nearly 3×10∆8).
    Now let’s assume that the velocity of the light photons are doubled ,then they reach earth in half of one million years(now they are travelling at 2×3×10∆8).
    we know that photons carries information of everything it strikes or from where its produced,and we are able to detect the “present” of an object due to this fixed velocity of light(that’s 3×10∆8).
    suppose the same example here on earth .An object reflects or produces light at the real velocity.Then we ‘ll see the present of that thing,but when we double the velocity of that source or reflector,what’ll we see will be more than the present means the information will be reached to us in a time more than present,that is FUTURE.
    am I right or not,sir?

  2. Some of very sensitive peoples can detect of someone dying before 40 days of the nearby death day .The physical,psychological as well as social interaction of the dying person seems to change in the last 40 days of life .The dying one slowly isolates and shows no interest in the worldly things in these nearby death days.
    Am I right or wrong sir?

  3. Hi Syed. Thanks for your interesting and thoughtful comment. The problem is that light follows the laws of special relativity very exactly, and since Einstein developed this theory back in 1905, numerous tests have found that there is no way to work around the speed limit of light in a vacuum which is 299,792.5 km/sec. Nature seems to be very firm that it will not tolerate any work-arounds to make information travel faster than this speed limit. The only hypothetical particle that would do the trick is the so-called tachyon, but no evidence for such a particle has ever turned up, nor has any phenomenon in the non-quantum world shown that it operates at our scale or the cosmic scale.

  4. Syed, Thanks again for your comment! I also know that some dogs can be trained to detect cancer in people who do not know that they have it. I think you are absolutely right that the dying person tends to retreat into some inner world as the process advances. I witnessed this myself when my own parents passed away.
