Suddenly, the lights began to go off. One of the pilots mused, "I think they know we are here." Thirty seconds prior, the Apache crews turned on their ranging lasers.

I was writing about gravitational lensing and how I wondered how scientists could possibly know how large is the actual universe if gravity is bending light as it travels over large distances.

There was that dream I had the other night, where I was inside a missile. I remembered today the similarity with this movie, in that Cochrane converted an ICBM into his warp ship. But why would someone create a connection between me and Cochrane? I didn't create warp drive in the past only to have someone block my memory of that, did I? It's funny, when I read something the other day about Data arguing with Einstein, it reminded me of something I was writing in my journal back in the early '90s. I was wondering why it was impossible to travel faster than the speed of light. A couple years ago I was writing about it again. The idea presented itself to me about why it was impossible, something about atoms not being able to work because electrons could not transfer energy faster than the speed of light. I wondered if it was possible to create some kind of process to transfer energy to those atoms, not unlike a cell's mitochondria works. Today I have been wondering if anything I remember about the past is real. Do I have a different past? Am I really who I think I am? The stuff I imagine happening to me sometimes, did that stuff really happen? I wonder if these movies and tv shows have actually been sort of inoculations, to keep me from questioning my reality. I do question reality sometimes, but it wasn't until I saw that Matrix movie a while back, did I really start to wonder about reality. But it didn't seem to matter, I wasn't overly concerned that I may be living that kind of false reality. I still don't think I am living such an extreme unreality as in the Matrix, but I wonder if there is a divergence point in my life, a shadow, a distorted period. Or have I been living a life like in the movie Soldier, or maybe like in Blade Runner, where Rachael, and I assume Harrison Ford's character, have false memories of their life. Am I Harrison Ford's character in this reality? A replicant searching for replicants? I haven't been able to follow Battlestar Galactica this past year, but I think that theme is showing up there, with Chief Tyrol.

So I wonder what I really know when I was writing a while back about how gravity bends light as it travel through the universe. I was writing about how do we really know how far any light has actually traveled since it may not have taken a direct path to observers on Earth. Was that a new thought when I wrote it or was a real memory trying to resurface from past work?

TECHNOLOGY THROUGH TIME ISSUE #44: EINSTEIN
For centuries, astronomers had studied total solar eclipses with an eye towards understanding the delicate details in its corona and curious prominences of gas that occasionally leapt from its darkened limb. By the turn of the 20th Century, however, astronomers had mastered the trick of studying the corona without the need of solar eclipses, and so the thrill of eclipse-watching abated… but only for a short while. On May 29, 1919 a total solar eclipse offered scientists a revolution in thinking about gravity and the very nature of space itself.
A young German physicist, Albert Einstein, had worked tirelessly on his new theories of relativity beginning with his first published papers in 1905, and culminating with his magnum opus ‘General Relativity’ in 1915. Only a handful of physicists had apparently paid Einstein’s latest creation much mind. One of these was Sir Arthur Eddington in England.
One of the predictions made by Einstein was that, in the presence of a gravitating body, space would be bent causing light rays to take a different path than predicted by Newton’s physics. Eddington soon realized that this light deflection could be measured by looking at the positions of stars before and after a total solar eclipse. The May 29, 1919 solar eclipse was perfect for this task because of its unusual length (6 minutes) and a track that passed over countries not involved in World War I. It was at that time that Einstein’s new, but entirely obscure, theory of gravity would be pitted against that of the physics Grand Master, Sir Isaac Newton. Through the action of warped space surrounding the sun, the sun would act like a colossal lens, deflecting the images of stars near its occulted limb.
Calculations made with the help of Newton’s theory of gravity and motion also predicted such deflections of starlight, but by exactly one-half as much. The deflection was invisible to the human eye, but the fact that it occurred at all, and by a specific amount, was the key that led to a major revolution in physics. Some say that, were it not for this spectacular discovery, all of Einstein’s relativity theories would have languished for many more years.

May 29, 1919: A Major Eclipse, Relatively Speaking
By Lizzie Buchen
05.29.09
1919: During a total solar eclipse, Sir Arthur Eddington performs the first experimental test of Albert Einstein’s general theory of relativity.
The findings made Einstein a celebrity overnight, and precipitated the eventual triumph of general relativity over classical Newtonian physics.
In 1919, Newton’s law of universal gravity still dominated scientific discourse, as it provided extremely accurate explanations of physical observations. But Einstein had a major issue with Newton’s theory: It wasn’t consistent with his own special theory of relativity, which predicted that space and time were relative, forming a four-dimensional continuum called spacetime. He conceived a general theory of relativity, in which gravitational fields would cause warps in spacetime, thus weaving gravity into the continuum.
One prediction of general relativity was that light should not travel in a perfectly straight line. While traveling through spacetime and nearing the warp induced by an object’s gravitational field, light should curve — but not by much. A ray of light nicking the edge of the sun, for example, would bend a minuscule 1.75 arcseconds — the angle made by a right triangle 1 inch high and 1.9 miles long. Newtonian physics also predicted light would bend due to gravity, but only by half as much as Einstein’s theory predicted.
Such a tiny difference seemed impossible to measure by earthly experiments. In fact, the two theories, though fundamentally opposed, made highly similar predictions for almost all tests of gravity and light. As a result, it was futile to try to understand which one provided a more accurate description of the fundamental laws of the universe.
Sir Frank Watson Dyson, Astronomer Royal of Britain, conceived in 1917 the perfect experiment to resolve the issue. A total solar eclipse on May 29, 1919, would occur just as the sun was crossing the bright Hyades star cluster. Dyson realized that the light from the stars would have to pass through the sun’s gravitational field on its way to Earth, yet would be visible due to the darkness of the eclipse. This would allow accurate measurements of the stars’ gravity-shifted positions in the sky.
Eddington, who led the experiment, first measured the “true” positions of the stars during January and February 1919. Then in May he went to the remote island of Príncipe (in the Gulf of Guinea off the west coast of Africa) to measure the stars’ positions during the eclipse, as viewed through the sun’s gravitational lens.
Eddington also sent a group of astronomers to take measurements from Sobral, Brazil, in case the eclipse was blocked by clouds over Príncipe. Outfitting and transporting the dual expeditions were no small feats in the days before transoceanic airplanes and instantaneous global communication.
Both locations had clear skies, and the astronomers took several pictures during the six minutes of total eclipse. When Eddington returned to England, his data from Príncipe confirmed Einstein’s predictions. Eddington announced his findings on Nov. 6, 1919. The next morning, Einstein, until then a relatively obscure newcomer in theoretical physics, was on the front page of major newspapers around the world.
The bending of light around massive objects is now known as gravitational lensing, and has become an important tool in astrophysics. Physicists now use gravitational lensing to try to understand dark matter and the expansion of the universe.
