An Argentine truck driver, Dionisio Llanca, abducted by Nordic aliens

Summary:

An Argentine truck driver, Dionisio Llanca, had an enigmatic experience while changing a flat tire on a lonely road. Afterwards Dionisio, a calm and quiet bachelor, arrived at a hospital in Bahia Blanca in a total state of amnesia. A few days later at the hospital, he regained his memory and related his extraordinary experience: a night of an encounter with a flying saucer and three Nordic type aliens who took a sample of his blood and spoke among themselves in a strange sounding language.


The story:

Saturday afternoon, on October 27, 1973, Dionisio Llanca lounged at a modest painted cottage belonging to his uncle, Enrique Ruiz, situated on Chubut Street, only ten minutes from the center of Bahia Blanca. He napped during the siesta period because he would have to drive all night long. He woke up at about 6:00 pm (18:00 hrs.), and watched a television serial, which was realistic, direct and without fantastic elements.
That same night, at about 12:30 am (00:30 hrs.), of Sunday, October 28, 1973, Llanca said goodbye to his uncle and got into his truck, a Dodge 600, loaded with construction materials to deliver them to the city of Rio Gallegos. For Dionisio Llanca, this is a routine two-day trip to the south of the country.

When he went to an Esso gas station on Don Bosco Street for refueling, he noticed that one of the tires was a bit low, but gave it little attention and decided to recheck it upon arriving at the town of Médanos (30 kilometers away) so he wouldn’t waste any more time.

While driving down on route 3, about 19 kilometers from the city of Bahia Blanca, he noticed that the tire was losing air fast, so he urgently needed to stop to change it. He regretted not changing it at the Esso gas station where he had stopped 15 minutes earlier to get gasoline.
At approximately 1:15 am (01:15 hrs.), he pulled over on a dark and desolate shoulder in the cold of the night. He began removing the tools, wrenches, jack and began changing the tire all by himself with no one else around to help him. The road was fully deserted in a wooded area and its surroundings were pitch-black.
As he was changing the tire, he observed that the road was illuminated with an intense yellowish glow about 2 kilometers (about one mile) away. Because of the color, he thought that it could be the headlights of a Peugeot automobile and continued to work without paying attention. While kneeling down changing the tire, the light suddenly positioned itself behind him above the treetops, becoming so bright that it lit the whole area and changed to a bluish color similar to that of an electric arc welder. When he tried to get up to look towards the wooded area where the light was emanating from, he realized that he had no strength in his legs to do so.

Looking back over his right shoulder, he noticed something unexpected; behind him was a huge disc shaped object, suspended about seven meters (23 feet) above the ground and three humanoid beings standing looking at him. He was totally paralyzed and could not even speak.

The three of them just stood there looking at him for a while, according to Llanca, for about five minutes. Then one of the humanoids grabbed him by the back of the collar of his sweater and lifted him up firmly but not aggressively. He tried to talk, but his voice couldn’t come out. While being held by that humanoid, the other one placed a device similar to a razor at the base of Llanca’s left index finger drawing blood. Llanca believes he passed out soon after seeing two drops of blood on his finger, because he couldn't remember anything else after that.


Descriptions of the aliens:     

The aliens were described of the Nordic type. They were two men and what he perceived to be a woman due to the formation of the breasts and the long blonde hair reaching down to the middle of her shoulders. The men were also blond but with shorter hair. They were about the same height, 4 to 5 feet tall (1 meter and 70 or 75 centimeters) and they were all dressed in a tight-fitted smoky-gray one piece suits, orange boots and long orange gloves reaching to the middle of their arms.  They did not wear belts, neither weapons, helmets nor anything else. Their facial features were like those of human beings, except for their high foreheads and elongated eyes. They spoke among themselves in a strange language, which sounded like a badly tuned radio with chirps and buzzes.
Llanca couldn’t remember when he woke up, but it is believed to be between two or 3 o’clock in the morning of that Sunday. When he opened his eyes, he found himself among the railcars in the yard of the "Sociedad Rural de Bahía Blanca", some 5½ miles (9 kilometers) from where the encounter took place. He was in a state of amnesia, as he couldn't remember even his name, the episode, the truck, or his home. He began walking towards the road and passed out again.

When he woke up, he continued to walk on route 3, and upon reaching the intersection of route 35, a driver found him walking around aimlessly like a robot. The driver picked him up and drove him to a police station where he was subsequently brought to "El Hospital Español" (The Spanish Hospital).
It is still a mystery as to what occurred between the time of the encounter to the time he woke up among the railcars, some 5½ miles (9 kilometers) away and when Doctor Ricardo Smirnoff treated him at the Spanish Hospital. Dr. Altoperro stated that it was a curious case since Llanca, a young man of about 25 or 26 years of age, was in a state of total amnesia.
At the hospital, he still could not remember anything about his past. He did not know who he was, where he was born or even who his parents were. He remembered absolutely nothing about his past. He cried continually and asked what town he was in. When his head or hands were touched, he drew back instinctively as though it would produce pain. He had a bad headache in the right parietal-temporal lobe area. The police was notified and he was subsequently transferred to "El Hospital Municipal" (the Municipal Hospital).

On October 30, 1973, at about 10:00 pm (22:00 hrs.), when he awoke on his bed at the Municipal Hospital of Bahía Blanca, he regained his memory and could remember the experience in detail up to the point he blanked out after seeing his bloody finger. His clothes were intact, folded in the drawers of his hospital room. He felt a desire to smoke and to know what time it was. He searched his clothes and discovered that his watch, his cigarette lighter and cigarettes in a metal box were missing. The pants pockets still contained the 150,000 Argentinian pesos that he carried upon leaving home. He asked about his truck, which worried him more than the UFO and its occupants. He was told that the police had found it parked on a shoulder in Villa Bordeu, some 18 kilometers from the city of Bahia Blanca, with the jack in place and with one of the tires removed. His papers in the glove compartment had not been disturbed.

Hypnotic regression:

On November 5, 1973, Llanca was placed under hypnotic regression, which allowed him to relate the facts he could not remember when aboard the alien spacecraft for over an hours. He explained during hypnosis that when they approached the truck, a biopsy was performed on him; a small skin tissue was removed from his left index finger with a small razor-like device. Then a sort of yellowish light beam left the craft, which drew him into the oval interior of the spacecraft

Once inside, he saw how the woman handled a number of instruments that he identified as being medical and surgical equipment, perhaps preparing to examine him. One of the men, which Llanca believes to be the pilot, seemed to be sitting in front of the ship’s controls and held in his right hand a lever or a sort of joystick. The other male humanoid was observing the starry sky through a large glass-like panel, an image that was repeated in a series of color monitors located to the left of Llanca. 

Suddenly a hatch opened and several hoses and cables were thrown outside the spacecraft. The hoses sank into a small watercourse and the cables made contact with a high voltage tower located nearby.
The woman, serving as a sort of nurse, was still taking care of some instruments on the large table. She changed the orange glove on her right hand for a black one that had spikes on the palm. When she walked over to Llanca, she made an incision on his right temporal area. Then unintentionally struck him on the left eyebrow producing a hematoma (or a bruise) that human doctors subsequently examined and treated.
When they finished examining his head, the aliens proceeded to anesthetize his wound. At this point, he was released from the spaceship completely unconscious, he was later found roaming the streets in a state of amnesia, and his next recollection of the incident was when he awoke at the Municipal Hospital of Bahia Blanca.     

Conclusion:
On the other hand, the truck was found at the site where Llanca claimed to have parked it. A few meters from there, it was ascertained that a high-voltage tower was damaged. After consulting with the company that supplied electricity to the city, a team headed by Fabio Zerpa (a well-known Argentinian ufologist), had confirmed that on Sunday, October 28, 1973, between 2:00 and 3:00 in the morning there had been an unusual increase of energy consumption. In addition, doctors who treated him found a clean incision in the scalp and a bruise on his left eyebrow area, coinciding with what Dionisio Llanca had reported.
There are many views generated in this case. Both doctors and researchers of the UFO phenomenon are divided between those who accept that an exceptional event did occur on route 3 that night, and those who believe that we are dealing with what Roberto Banchs (an Argentinian writer) described as "one of the most sophisticated hoaxes to date."

We may never know the truth, but the alleged abduction of Dionisio Llanca was thoroughly examined and investigated by some of the best doctors, psychologists, psychiatrists and ufologists in Argentina. Still to this day, it has been found to be one of the most bizarre cases of the alien abduction phenomenon occurring not only in Argentina, but also in Latin America and in the world. During his many hypnotic regressions, he was able to draw several sketches of the aliens and the spacecraft he encountered on that lonely road while changing a flat tire.
Dionisio Llanca is a simple, almost primitive man. In two days of interviews, he remained withdrawn and did not even smile. He is serious with a remote sense of humor. One of the doctors characterized him as "innocent." When he is asked what he thinks about UFOs, he says, "Nothing, it doesn't interest me." In reality, a few things interest Dionisio: of course his parents, his town and his work. He does not like to think about the events of that night.

The above information was gathered from various sources and some translated from Spanish by PRUFON.

NASA Is About to Have a Huge Year in 2017

Amy Thompson

NASA

Between rockets landing on drone ships and the Curiosity rover finding more exciting news about the prospect of life on Mars, NASA and the space industry had an incredible 2016 — and 2017 might be just as epic.

The space agency will edge closer to a trip to Mars and bring in data from the furthest corners of the solar system. There’s also a lot of cool celestial phenomena, including a total solar eclipse, going down in the next year. While the incoming president Donald Trump’s plans for NASA are unclear, the activities the agency already has on the schedule look pretty exciting.

Building the Future

Mars is the destination of the future, as multiple space agencies and private companies have their sites set on the Red Planet. NASA has been busy building the infrastructure and vehicles that will take us there.

The Space Launch System (SLS) is NASA’s next heavy-lift rocket that will hopefully replace the Saturn V, which was once used to ferry astronauts to the moon.

A view of NASA's Orion spacecraft atop the massive SLS rocket. 

Engineers are currently renovating the historic Vehicle Assembly Building (where the rockets were once assembled) at the agency’s Kennedy Space Center, in Florida. Additionally, they are upgrading Launch Pad 39B — which once supported both the Saturn V and the space shuttle programs.

Cassini is prepping to conduct several deep dives between Saturn's rings as its mission winds to a close.

Cassini’s Death and Saturn Exploration

NASA’s Cassini spacecraft made history as it returned epic views of our solar system’s ringed giant, Saturn. The probe got up close and personal with Saturn’s family of moons, revealing previously unknown details.

Cassini is set to self-destruct in 2017, as it will crash into the giant planet. The robotic explorer has already begun the final phase of its more than a decade-long mission. As part of its grand finale, Cassini will conduct a series of dives between Saturn and its extensive ring system.

The lucky folks along the path will witness the splendor of a total solar eclipse. 

2017 Total Eclipse

Next summer the United States will experience a rare phenomenon — a total solar eclipse. Dubbed “the Great American Eclipse”, the solar spectacle will be visible throughout continental North America.

This will be the first time in nearly a century that a total solar eclipse will trek across the entirety of the continental United States. The best viewpoint will be in the city of Hopkinsville, Kentucky, but don’t fret. A partial eclipse will be visible throughout the country, while those along the dedicated eclipse path will be able to witness the moon block out the sun’s light temporarily as it passes between our planet and its host star. Astronomers estimate it will be another 375 years to witness another event like this.

CYGNSS will work in tandem with hurricane hunters in order to more accurately measure wind speeds.

Earth Science Observations

NASA has teamed up with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) to monitor the precious blue marble we call home. Together the two agencies research a myriad of issues from climate change to extreme weather, to the antarctic ice shelf.

Through its fleet of research aircraft, NASA is able to carry out these specialized missions. Next year the agency will rely on a fleet of advanced weather satellitesto dissect destructive storms like hurricanes and tropical cyclones in order to determine what makes them tick. This research will improve forecasts as well as better predict how damaging the storms will be once they strike.

NICER will probe the inner workings of neutron stars from it orbital perch on the ISS.

Exoplanets and Astronomy

Next year, NASA is launching two missions that will revolutionize our understanding of the universe. The Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) is a project out of NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Md. and will search for transiting exoplanets (aka planets outside the solar system) around bright stars. When a planet passes in front of a star, it temporarily blocks out the star’s light — this is known as a transit. Historically, NASA’s Kepler Space Telescope has been the premier planet-hunter, but it may have to share some of the spotlight in the next few years.

In addition to TESS, NASA is launching a mission called the Neutron star Interior Composition ExploreR (or NICER for short). NICER will be installed on the International Space Station and, thanks to rotation-resolved spectroscopy, the experiment will probe the interior of neutron stars.

Correction, 12/31/2016: The initial image for this post used a GIF of a Japan H-2 rocket launch. We’ve replaced with a GIF of NASA’s 2014 EFT-1 mission launch, which used a Delta IV Heavy rocket.

Official UFO guide revealed: What to do if aliens invade Earth

AS humans explore more and more of the galaxy, the likeliness of us encountering extraterrestrial life becomes more likely.

By Jamie Micklethwaite 

DS

Life could exist on any planet in the solar system, with Europa, Venus and Mars named as being able to harbour life.

If you do stumble on an alien life form, guidelines are in place to handle the euphoria and ensure a War of the Worlds situation does not happen.

Following the first encounter, anyone experiencing the phenomenon is urged to contact the government, without telling anyone until the UFO claim has been confirmed.

“The discoverer should promptly inform all other observers or research organisations that are parties to this declaration”

SETI

Guidelines from the SETI Institute – the official organisation hunting for aliens on behalf of humanity – state: "Prior to making a public announcement that evidence of extraterrestrial intelligence has been detected, the discoverer should promptly inform all other observers or research organisations that are parties to this declaration.

"Parties this declaration should not make any public announcement of this information until it is determined whether this information is or is not credible evidence of the existence of extraterrestrial intelligence.

"The discoverer should inform his/her or its relevant national authorities."

The discoverer then plays a key part in telling the world about their discovery.

As news of the UFO is sent out to global media, the discoverer is given the privilege of telling everyone the good news.

Guidelines confirm: "A confirmed detection of extraterrestrial intelligence should be disseminated promptly, openly and widely through scientific channels and public media, observing the procedures in this declaration.

"The discoverer should have the privilege of making the first public announcement."

But any UFO hunters looking to make contact with an extraterrestrial being will be kept well away from the discovery.

Any contact with aliens has to go through a long list of protocols, and scientists and experts will be chosen to be the aliens' intermediary.

"Should credible evidence of extraterrestrial intelligence be discovered, an international committee of scientists and other experts should be established to serve as a focal point.”

Are aliens hidden in ancient religious artwork? Bizarre theory claims that signs of early visits from ET can be found in old paintings

• Several centuries-old historical artworks contain 'alien-like symbols'
• UFO hunters say these symbols prove that ancient civilisations met aliens 
• But art experts say that the mysterious symbols are being misinterpreted

Conspiracy theorists claim that ancient artwork could hide signs that aliens have visited the human race.

Several centuries-old paintings, cave drawings and tapestries contain symbols and shapes that resemble UFOs and extraterrestrials.

But art experts say that these are simple misreadings of religious symbols or figures.

MailOnline explores some of the most famous examples of UFO or alien-like symbols in ancient artwork.

This alter piece was painted by Italian artist Carlo Crivelli. Conspiracy theorists suggest that the ring depicted in the top left shining light onto Mary is actually a UFO spacecraft

The Annunciation with Saint Emidius, 1486

The 'Annuciation with Saint Emidius' is an alter piece painted by Italian artist Carlo Crivelli in 1486. 

It was crafted to commemorate Angel Gabriel's announcement to the Virgin Mary that she would give birth to Jesus.

Conspiracy theorists suggest that the ring depicted in the top left, shining light onto Mary, is a UFO spacecraft.

But art experts say that it simply shows a small collection of angels gathered around a circle of clouds.

The ring and light represent the holy spirit descending towards the Virgin Mary.

Illustration from 'Ume No Chiri', 1844

Urobune refers to a mysterious, unknown object that was found drifting off the coast of Eastern Japan's Hitachi province in 1803.

The object is depicted in three different Japanese texts: Toen shōsetsu (1825), Hyōryū kishū (1835) and Ume-no-chiri (1844).

This illustration depicts the UFO-like object, which Hitachi sailors discovered floating in the ocean.

According to the notes alongside some illustrations of the craft, the object was made from steel and glass, and was just large enough to fit a small human inside.

Within the craft, the sailors reportedly found a strange script which they could not decipher.

Glorification of the Eucharist, 1600

This 17th century work by Italian artist Ventura Salimbeni features God and Jesus looking out over God's kingdom.

But the strange, rounded object sat between the two resembles Russia's Sputnik satellite, launched over 350 years later in 1957.

Conspiracy theory YouTube channel Strange Mysteries made the odd connection between the two in a video posted in 2014.

They claim in the video: 'This just looks a little bit too uncanny for symbolic reference.

'If the sphere is said to represent the universe, why did the painter not include any stars or other celestial objects?'

Saint Wolfgang and the Devil, 1475

Famous 15th century Austrian Renaissance painter Michael Pacher created this work around a legend that Saint Wolfgang tricked the devil into building a church.

Saint Wolfgang was the Bishop of Regensburg in Bavaria during the 10th century.

Conspiracy theorists claim that the figure depicting the devil in the painting could be a representation of an alien that visited Earth.

But the theory is a weak one, as the devil has been represented in a wide variety of strange forms throughout the long history of religious artwork.

The Baptism of Christ, 1710

Art experts suggest that this painting is a reference to a religious passage: 'The heavens opened, and the Spirit descended like a dove and (put) lighting upon him'.

It was painted by Dutch artist Aert De Gelder in the 18th century.

UFO hunters suggest that the disc-like object, shown shining light onto John the Baptist and Jesus, could be a UFO.

'This scene has been illustrated by many artists,' says internet UFO conspiracy theorist TheAncientAliens.

'However, this scene is particularly interesting because of the flying saucer hovering over the scene with beams of light shining down and illuminating the event.'

'Considering De Gelder’s reputation as one of the elite artists of his time, it is likely this work was intended to be taken seriously and meant to communicate that Jesus had ties to aliens and perhaps was of alien origins.'

Peruvian Hill Carving, 6th Century

Ancient Peruvians, such as the Nazca people, are famed for their centuries-old carvings in the Peruvian desert.

Many were dug into the South American landscape between the first and sixth centuries.

This image shows a 6th century Peruvian hill carving that appears to depict an alien-like figure.

It's theorised that local inhabitants carved these messages into the floor to signal to aliens that they valued their visits.

But the carvings are just as likely to have been messages to ancient Peruvian Gods.

THE MYSTERY OF PERU'S NAZCA LINES 

Nazca Lines are geoglyphs first spotted in 1939 when a pilot flew over the Nasca planes of the Peruvian coastal highlands.

They were designated as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1994 and the area stretches more than 50 miles (80km) between the towns of Nazca and Palpa, about 400 km south of Lima.

Some 700 geoglyphs are thought to have been drawn by the ancient Nazca people between the first and sixth centuries.

The Nazca Lines are drawn into lighter coloured strata which contrasts with darker gravels on the plain. 

The Madonna with Saint Giovannino, 15th Century 

In this painting, Italian Renaissance artist Domenico Ghirlandaio depicts Mary mother of Jesus looking down on two children.

The artwork hangs in the Palazzo Vecchio in Florence, Italy.

To the right of Mary's head, a strange flying object can be seen in the background, which some UFO hunters think is an alien spacecraft.

A Shepard can be seen shielding his eyes from the sun as he points toward it.

The object is interesting to conspiracy theorists because it has no other context in the painting.

UFO conspiracy theorists CoolInterestingStuff discuss a possible reading: 'Upon closer inspection, the man seems to be looking away from the UFO, behind him and over his shoulder.

'Or, more likely, the notably out of place object may be imagined floating above the ground between them.'

From either perspective, could Mary be seen as blocking the two babies from the flying saucer’s view?'

But art experts say that artwork of this era often depicted clouds shining divine lights as religious symbols.

They suggest that in the case of Madonna with Saint Giovannino, this common biblical symbolism has been misread.

UFO Ring Seen Over Highway In Korea On Jan 1, 2016, Video, UFO Sighting News.

Date of sighting: Jan 1, 2016

Location of sighting: Korea

 

The eyewitness asks if this is a Taegeuk, which is the Yin-yang symbol as we know it. The ring in the sky is actually an entire UFO disk. We can see that the edges of the UFO have cloud ether gathering around it or being made by the UFO. The disk seems to be preparing to making a cloud around it. Although the disk is cloaked, they are still at least considering making a cloud around themselves to be extra safe. This is very similar to the 1957 UFO Event at Army Ft. Belvoir, Virginia, where a black metallic ring was seen and photographed as it quickly made a cloud entirely covering it (Click here to view event).

Eyewitness states: 

A Taegeuk mark in the sky. Is this a UFO event I am viewing from my window? Or a message, or a UFO?

UFO Over Busy Street In Downtown Manchester, England, UFO Sighting News.

Date of sighting: 6-9-2012, but reported today

Location of sighting: Manchester, England

Source: MUFON #81266

 

This UFO was recently reported but was seen in 2012. The object resembles a ballon, but there is no advertising on it, no strings at all, and its not once piece but unique in that its has several areas within this orb. I have seen such UFO orbs even closer and smaller than this before. Their semi transparent appearance makes them blend in to almost any environment...but as they come lower to the ground, the blending becomes unable to match the surrounding colors, making them very easy to make out. Very amazing catch thats defiantly a UFO. 

Scott C. Waring

 

Eyewitness states: 

I was in Manchester town centre with my brother ,we were driving through the 'northern quarter' when I saw a ball of different coloured lights hovering at approx 30-50 feet away to my left. I said to my brother to stop the car and I got my phone out to take a photo. My brother only saw the object very briefly. There was a car behind beeping so I said for us to turn left and to drive down the road it was on. We turned left and accidentally passed the road we should have turned so I said to stop. We looked down the road the object was on and the object had dissapeared. We were in shock. I took out my phone and we saw that I had captured the object quite clearly. I cannot explain what I had seen and when I show people they can't understand it. The object can be described more detailed by saying it was a hollow ball made up of round downturned discs with vivid colours on the outside. I could see through into the hollow. The pictures will show this. To me the object was between 3 and 8 foot in size and seemed to be hovering over a nearby car. This can be seen on the photo. If you can help to explain what I saw that would be great.

Photographer Captures Cigar-Shaped UFO Over A Mountain In Cyprus

Amazed with the scenery of a mountain and moon combination, a photographer captured more than what he expected. He noticed in one of his several images taken on the same spot a cigar-shaped UFO. The look of this object was mentioned in top secret papers of the Nazis at the end of World War II.  It is reported that some scientists and engineers working on these top secret programs were sent to America under Project Paperclip.

These type of flying objects, wingless and windowless, are mostly seen hovering for hours and then accelerating rapidly. Witnesses, including pilots, commonly described them as being silver colored or metallic.

These cigar-shaped objects have also been often described as large ones between hundreds of meters and over a kilometer in length. According to some conspiracy theorists, their size appears to confine them to higher altitudes.

Some small ones managed to come near the surface of the earth cloaking themselves, but many witnesses still saw these little type of cigar UFOs because they sometimes uncloaked themselves accidentally.

IN BRIEF

• Quantum mechanics and general relativity, the twin monuments of 20th Century genius, have done a remarkable job of explaining the way our universe works. But at the edges of knowledge, we're learning that they're only facets of a much larger picture.
• Attempts to fashion a quantum theory of gravity, which unites the quantum and general relativistic realms, have resulted in a flurry of recent weird breakthroughs—including the bizarre notion that time might be the byproduct of entangled qubits residing on the temporal boundaries of the universe.

QUANTUM MECHANICS VS. GENERAL RELATIVITY

There are two theories that have essentially revolutionized our understanding of physics in the 20th century—quantum mechanics and general relativity.

Quantum mechanics attempts to explain the behavior of the smallest things in the universe—subatomic particles at the nanoscopic level. At this scale, time is universal and absolute.

On the other hand, Einstein’s general relativity posits that time is relative and dynamic—a result of how space, time, and matter interact with each other. Following the theory of relativity, the geometry of the “space-time fabric” can be distorted by large masses. Bodies that move through the distorted space-time fabric then appear as if they are being influenced by the gravitational force of the large mass.

Now, to describe and understand what we perceive in everyday life, we turn to physics. General relativity serves to explain the gravitational properties of large objects, which are massive enough that their quantum properties are negligible. Quantum mechanics accurately explains what happens on the smallest scales—but only where masses are insignificant enough that their gravitational effects are practically zilch.

The question is, how do we explain matter that is, at once, very heavy and yet very small? To that end, how will you reconcile the absolute and relative notions of time supported by each theory?

This gap in our understanding of physics is something that theories of quantum gravity can hopefully explain. And a new breakthrough in the study of quantum gravity gives us a glimpse of how the physics of general relativity and quantum mechanics can be resolved.

“I think we now understand that space-time really is just a geometrical representation of the entanglement structure of these underlying quantum systems,” said Mark Van Raamsdonk, a theoretical physicist at the University of British Columbia.

Did you catch all that? Essentially, the idea is that the universe of our experience, together with the matter and relativistic space and time within it, arise as emergent properties from quantum bits (qubits) of information, just as the universe of a computer game arises from the digital bits of information in a computer. This is the holographic notion of the universe.

Researchers illustrate how the universe can have a fisheye space-time geometry known as “anti-de Sitter” (AdS) space. As you move away from the center, spatial increments get shorter until eventually the spatial dimension from the center extends to nothing—smacking into a boundary. This boundary has one less spatial dimension than its interior, referred to as the “bulk,” wherein is projected the holographic universe—with all its matter and energy, and wonky time that moves in dramatic ways, bending and curving with space as described in general relativity.

But the entangled qubits residing on the boundary of this AdS space progress according to the ordered, non-relativistic time natural to quantum states; like a computer program executing its commands according to the precise ticks of its internal clock, yet creating a simulated universe within which time can warp and stretch and be as weirdly relative as it wants.

 So far so good. But our universe conforms to a de Sitter configuration, where space stretches the further out you look; and this presents some problems of understanding the emergent qualities of time. The boundary, in this case, appears to be the end of time; somehow, the qubits on the boundary of the de Sitter space give rise to an interior hologram with dynamical time.

As Brian Swingle of Harvard University notes, what all this research seems to uncover is that, “somehow, you can emerge time from timeless degrees of freedom using entanglement.”

And while the team behind the study has yet to discover how this is possible, they hope it will lead to answers about what we don’t yet understand about the physics of our universe.
