chevron 7 engage
• Wormhole
• Occasional
real physics,
i.e. time
dilation
effects
• What’s
behind the
curtain?

Seeing the invisible
http://timeandquantummechanics.comStargates/Ashmead - FossCon / Aug 26th, 2017
What do we mean by a
StarGate?
• Any instantaneous transport
• Usually associated with a gate
& a bit of tube-y-ness
• Mostly wormholes here
• StarGates & Faster-than-light
travel
• StarGates & Time Travel
• StarGates & Parallel universes
http://timeandquantummechanics.comStargates/Ashmead - FossCon / Aug 26th, 2017
Wormholes
• 2 * Black Holes
• Avoiding
Spaghettification
• Negative energy
• Vortices
• Avoiding the Time
Police
• How to build?
http://timeandquantummechanics.comStargates/Ashmead - FossCon / Aug 26th, 2017
The Ant & the Worm
• “We burrow our
way through the
apple like a
worm, crossing
from one side of
the galaxy to the
other instead of
going around the
outside” — Col. S.
Carter
http://timeandquantummechanics.comStargates/Ashmead - FossCon / Aug 26th, 2017
Embedding
• Like pages of a
book
• Black hole glue
• Then large
rollers to flatten
out on each
side
http://timeandquantummechanics.comStargates/Ashmead - FossCon / Aug 26th, 2017
Frame Dragging
http://timeandquantummechanics.comStargates/Ashmead - FossCon / Aug 26th, 2017
Black Hole at the
Center of our Galaxy
• “The stellar orbits in
the galactic centre
show that the central
mass concentration
of four million solar
masses must be a
black hole, beyond
any reasonable
doubt.” - Genzel,
Max Planck Institute
http://timeandquantummechanics.comStargates/Ashmead - FossCon / Aug 26th, 2017
Gravitational Radiation
http://timeandquantummechanics.comStargates/Ashmead - FossCon / Aug 26th, 2017
Spaghettification
• Tendex lines
• Blue is
squeeze
• Red is
stretch
• Oil is found
http://timeandquantummechanics.comStargates/Ashmead - FossCon / Aug 26th, 2017
Negative Energy
• Lots of
positive energy
required
• Also, negative
energy
• Constant
feature of all
[interesting]
wormholes
http://timeandquantummechanics.comStargates/Ashmead - FossCon / Aug 26th, 2017
Unfocusing
http://timeandquantummechanics.comStargates/Ashmead - FossCon / Aug 26th, 2017
Hawking Radiation
• Virtual pairs
form all the time
• Sometimes one
captured, other
escapes
• Carrying energy
with it
http://timeandquantummechanics.comStargates/Ashmead - FossCon / Aug 26th, 2017
Quantum Banking
• Longer the
pulse, the
weaker
• Pay-back
ensues
• And interest
http://timeandquantummechanics.comStargates/Ashmead - FossCon / Aug 26th, 2017
vortices
• Strong association
between vortices
& stargates
• Framedragging
• May be hard to
keep the wormhole
mouth open
without something
spinning.
http://timeandquantummechanics.comStargates/Ashmead - FossCon / Aug 26th, 2017
WormHoles =>
FTL => Time Travel
• Instant from A to B
(from A’s perspective)
• Instant from B to A
(from B’s perspective)
• Backwards in time to
A

Paradox Policing
• The Chronology
Protection
Conjecture
• Multiverse/Everett
Interpretation
• The Novikov Self-
Consistency
Postulate
• Paradox noise

http://timeandquantummechanics.comStargates/Ashmead - FossCon / Aug 26th, 2017
How to Build?
• Wormhole harvesting
http://timeandquantummechanics.comStargates/Ashmead - FossCon / Aug 26th, 2017
Fabric of spacetime
• Quantum vacuum
noisy with
wormholes
• Find (with exotic
matter)
• Grow (feed with
exotic matter)
• Keep from eating
the solar system
(feed with normal
matter)
http://timeandquantummechanics.comStargates/Ashmead - FossCon / Aug 26th, 2017
Woodward’s
Wormholes
• ADM Model of the
electron (Arnowitt-
Deser-Misner)
• Mach’s principle
• Testable!!!

Practical Cavorite?
http://timeandquantummechanics.comStargates/Ashmead - FossCon / Aug 26th, 2017
Uses of StarGates
• Fill in plot holes,
• Give us deeper
understanding of our
theories & our universe,
• Maybe, even, help get
the human race a bit of
badly needed breathing
room,
• And lots of fun!
http://timeandquantummechanics.comStargates/Ashmead - FossCon / Aug 26th, 2017
Ad astra per aspera
• Physics of Stargates - Rodrigo
• From Eternity to Here - Carroll
• Science of Interstellar - Thorne
• Time Travel & Warp Drives -
Everett & Roman
• The Physics of Time - Muller
