Yes.
We don't want to get too deeply into the vocabulary of it.
I agree.
But Andrew, that is a very good question.
And let's just cut to the basic chase.
Yeah.
Andrew is basically asking, um,
With the way that we're trying to figure out how the universe works on the quantum level, is it true that time could be considered as running backwards and forwards at the same time?
And therefore, the entire universe is filled not just in space, but also in time.
In other words, the past, the present, the future all already exist.
And all we're doing is either moving forward into it or standing still.
We're not moving backwards.
Right.
That's basically what he's asking.
And then the corollary, which means all trajectories are predetermined.
That's right.
So if that's true, right, then should we do physics backwards as well as forwards?
Can something happening in the past cause what's happening or predict what's happening in the future and vice versa?
Hence the retrocausality.
Retrocausality, right.
