The Time Dilation effect is now an accepted scientific fact.
Astronauts flying at close to the speed of light would age more slowly
than their friends on earth.
The reason is that the space traveller’s
heartbeat, the decay of the cells of his body and his other
physiological processes would slow down.
Scientists can calculate accurately the extent to which time would
slow down on a spaceship travelling at close to the speed of light.
Time would appear to pass normally, yet in just a few years the
travellers would reach the most distant stars.
After twenty-one years on the spaceship, they could be in the heart
of the Milky Way—while on earth 75,000 light years had passed!
But notice.
The theory of relativity (of space and time) was
apparently known to our early forefathers.
Lucretius, Heraclitis and Zeno each postulated aspects of this
principle. It was also known in India.
A Japanese love story incorporates the fact of time dilation in space
travel.
The Island Child went into the skies for 3 years, but found on
his return to his earthly home that 300 years had passed there.
’
The Slavic version of the Book of Enoch (reflecting very ancient
origins) narrates the story of a space trip which for the hero lasted
only a few days, while on earth whole centuries passed.
The Vision of Isaiah (second to third century A.D.
) speaks of a space
trip to heaven.
When told it was time to return to earth, the traveller
asked in surprise, ‘Why so soon? I have been here only two hours.
"
The angel replied, ‘Not two hours but 32 years.
" Isaiah now feared
he would suffer old age and death if he returned, but he was assured
that upon his return to earth he would not have aged.
These ancient people were not hallucinating.
If our astronauts could
travel close to the speed of light, they would experience a
comparable shrinkage of time.
This we now accept as scientifically
valid.
Modern science is today stumbling upon discoveries known to an
ancient forgotten science.
