While we're on the physics/concepts/time/light thing, i think this one should be sorted out once and for all.

New and invariant answers please

Alan Trewartha, Wednesday, 13 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

excuse me in what mentalist newtonian-humbug universe are they distinguishable? just rotate the axes...

mark s, Wednesday, 13 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

Space are a rubbish band. so time wins!

katie, Wednesday, 13 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

mark if they are indistinguishable then we DO see time yes??? (note i may have got aa in combined science gcse but THAT IS FAR AS IT GOES so PLEASE EXPLAIN YORESELF!)

To travel in space you need uber-cool rockets and starfighters etc, to travel in time, a police box.

Space wins hands down.

chris, Wednesday, 13 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

yes sarah: look on your wrist, strapped to it is a small metal disc featuring pokemons or poss powahpuff galz

look at it again shortly: not everything is in the same place THAT IS TIME WOT YOUR JUST SAW

ps do not do this towards the end of the working day as it does not seem to work; this is a macro-gravitational effect as predicted by einstein caused by enormously large numbers of bodies moving from their desks to the pub while you remain in place

Space = the final frontier = rockist

Time = (clock of the heart) = anti-rock

Time wins!

I am trying to decide whether I would rather be described as a waste of time or a waste of space but it is too hard. I am better at knowing the time than where I am so I suppose time is better.

Emma, Wednesday, 13 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

Emma, you're mi-ii-ii-ii-ii-y, you're my favourite waste of time.

Edna Welthorpe, Mrs, Wednesday, 13 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

Wae that an "aw" moment or an "ew" moment?

Tim, Wednesday, 13 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

it wae an "aw" moment here

Alan Trewartha, Wednesday, 13 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

It was a 'be afraid' moment here. To steel myself against V********* Day I am being ruthlessly anti-sappiness.

In one of his earliest works, Professor Jagger released a theory which concluded that "Time is on my side. Yes it is.", although he later published a pamphlet entitled "Baby baby baby, you're out of time." which entirely discredited his previous release.

Jagger's "Out of Time" theorem as it came to be known, was later resurrected and refined in the mid-nineties by Doctor Stipe and his lab assistants Buck, Mills and Berry.

Space recorded a dismal duet with Cerys from Catatonia and were never heard of again.

Trevor, Wednesday, 13 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

i wish scientists did "release" theories: there could be a chart!!

mark s, Wednesday, 13 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

I collect the cool stickers in New Scientist each week just to keep up with all the new theories.

Alan Trewartha, Wednesday, 13 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

alan i need "stanley pons & cold fusion" to fill my book but i think panini only printed up abt three: i always get dolly the sheep!!

mark s, Wednesday, 13 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

There must be someone who's released science/scientist trading cards in a tragic bid to make the subject cool. Or exploit the geeky kid market. After all, if they can release 9/11 cards..

N., Wednesday, 13 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

Not quite what I was looking for, but still..

N., Wednesday, 13 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

surely science has the geeky kid market somewhat sewn up?

mark s, Wednesday, 13 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

You don't see space or time. You see events in spacetime.

RickyT, Wednesday, 13 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

Space looked pretty vacant in his last fight, and time has shown that it can be intensive. This one's gonna come down to who wants it on the day.

While a man may be in outer space like Major Tom, he may never be out of space. As proved by Elvis Costello, a man may be out of time. But he probably won't still be loved. Which makes it about even.

Sterling Clover, Wednesday, 13 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

Ahhh but wasn't it Steven Tyler who wrote "Spaced in Time Child of Mine" and "Spaced with out a trace, noone even knows i'm alive"

Jebus, Wednesday, 13 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

Of course a man cannot be out of space - for a man is space.

Pete, Wednesday, 13 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

Er no he's not...!! He is the absolute opposite to space in that he is matter... unless we have confused space with universe?

Jebus, Wednesday, 13 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

Time will tell -- space will remain silent.
Things improve in time -- space just gets more warped.
======================
Time wins.

Alan Trewartha, Wednesday, 13 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

You're making it up as you go along... Ever heard of a Time Warp? Or "Pigs in Space"

Jebus, Wednesday, 13 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

SPACETIME!

JM, Wednesday, 13 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

You can control space, but not time. So I like time better.

Anna, Wednesday, 13 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

I liked the way WEA controlled Space by dropping them. Ha ha.

Pete, Wednesday, 13 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

Cliff Richard's musical Time is surely to be taken into account.

Tom, Wednesday, 13 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

Space is time and vice versa. Though time is an artifical construct. Infinity. I like both.

jel, Wednesday, 13 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

I am also surprised that The Revolution's nemesis in Purple Rain isn't getting more props. They were good.

Tracer Hand, Wednesday, 13 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

Time could be controlled, I think. Time is also an album by ELO. I like Time.

Ally C, Wednesday, 13 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

i don't think time exists and until now i forgot to doubt space. now i'm wondering.

Maria, Wednesday, 13 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

I am anxious to see "The Time Machine" in which Guy Pearce travels through time and warps back to 2000 when Samantha Mumba had a hit.
