Time's Arrow
Posted by DFM on January 30, 2024, 4:36 pm
Since Time's Arrow is DEFINED by the Second Law of Thermodynamics and the associated increase in Entropy (Arthur Eddington), it is logically impossible to transmit information backwards in time. This also answers the question about using entanglement to transmit information faster than light. If the separation of two events is Space-Like (which is what "faster than light" actually means), then there exist coordinate systems in which either occurs before the other. Therefore, using entanglement to transmit information is impossible, since it would violate the Second Law. In fact, it is impossible to use entanglement to transmit information AT ALL. There is no "Spooky Action at a Distance".
