USS Enterprise & Ramblings


 The thought just occurred to me that it is quite ironic that the real life version of Captain James T. Kirk, a.k.a. William Shatner, seemed to really not enjoy the experience of being in space. 🤭

Telephones lead me to think about this but I don’t recall how I got from A to B.  Oh, now I remember.  I was thinking about how a person could hypothetically only stuff a limited amount of papers or photos or whatnot into an old fashioned telephone but this isn’t the case with 21st century phones because stuff turned into data does not require a lot of physical space.  There was an Android known as Data on Star Trek: The Next Generation.  How cute. 😄  My first smart phone was an Android which was a silly choice, not that there is anything wrong with the notion of android per se. 

Thinking about physical space and information data led me to thinking about outer space and Data and Captain Kirk and William Shatner in space.

I just remembered a line from the movie “Hidden Figures” where the boss of the scientists at NASA said “We need to use mathematics that are not yet invented” in regard to their attempts to catch up with and surpass Russia in the space race. 

And there was something else about space that I recently saw but it has slipped my mind at the moment.

Maybe what I have actually misplaced are my marbles but that makes things a lot more interesting.

Now

  We believe that our present is the only time with real existence (the past is gone and the future has yet to arrive) and yet when time is broken down to it’s briefest durations, there is no distinct and perceivable present, or separation between future and past for that matter.   We must borrow some measure of time from the future and past in order to enable our perception of a present. And who is to say that our point of perception is the only place in time that has the quality of existence? Past time has passed out of existence and future time has yet to come into existence.  How is it that our perception happens to be attached to the only point in time where time has real existence out of all of the time that ever has been and ever will be?  Is it because we just happen to be among those who are living and existing at the current place in time where the present is at?  Can there really only ever be one point in time, out of unimaginably large amounts of time, where an active and d
