Week-13

How do we locate a fixed point in space? If we can lay out the point in terms of length, breadth and depth from where we are stationed it is possible. The difficulty arises when that point is traveling at a certain speed. It would then be necessary for us to account for time. Time as a fourth dimension.
Within such a four-dimensional model shall we consider our earth as one point? In such a case all events we experience and what actions we set off are set in time. In such a model of space and time no action of man can be seen separate or insulated from other chains of events. A classic example of this we see in the way Albert Einstein unsuccessfully tried to debunk the Quantum mechanics in the latter part of his life.
Einstein’s paper on the nature of light in 1905 changed our understanding of our universe completely. Einstein then moved on in search of a Unified Field Theory. He was certain Heisenberg’s theory of probability was flawed. (‘God does not play dice’ as he famously remarked.) But in his pioneering work of 1905 Einstein had advocated light as particles. The proponents of Quantum mechanics notably Niels Bohr among them, continued from where he had stopped. In trying to prove the theory about everything Einstein merely made himself a relic, out of touch with the reality. (Ref: W40)
