one of my favorite examples of the physics-philosophy overlap is the fact that time doesn’t move, we do. the world changes over time, but time doesn’t change the world. our biological processes age us over time, time doesn’t alter our bodies for us. time is simply a marker for change and I think that’s very important

does anyone have experience manifesting or seeing through dimensions beyond this one? i have a feeling a very long time ago i figured out how to do this but my memory was erased. i’ve tried looking into non-euclidean dimensions and researching quantum physics but it all pops up hypotheticals, not legitimate answers.
anyone else feel similar or have any theories on this sort of stuff? i’m trying to dive back into my research.

Neutron star ‘mountains’ would cause ripples in space-time
Collapsed dead stars, known as neutron stars, are a trillion times denser than lead, and their surface features are largely unknown. Nuclear theorists have explored mountain building mechanisms active on the moons and planets in our solar system. Some of these mechanisms suggest that neutron stars are likely to have mountains.
Neutron star “mountains” would be much more massive than any on Earth—so massive that gravity just from these mountains could produce small oscillations, or ripples, in the fabric of space and time.
Mountains, or non-axisymmetric deformations of rotating neutron stars, efficiently radiate gravitational waves. In a study published in the journal Physical Review D, nuclear theorists at Indiana University consider analogies between neutron star mountains and surface features of solar system bodies.

FIG. 2: Chronological structure of Gödel’s universe. In this xyt-diagram a possible timelike worldline is depicted. A traveler T could move on this curve, propagating in his own local future at any given point. Beyond the horizon (gray cylinder) he travels into the past of an observer located at the origin. The worldline itself is a CTC, because the traveler departs from and returns to the origin at the same coordinate time t. For an observer at the origin, coordinate time and proper time coincide. The figure illustrates Gödel’s original idea to prove that there exist CTCs through every point in spacetime [1].
