It's intriguing and deserves study, but anyone who tries to claim they actually understand the meaning and implications all the way through is lying out their ass.


And he's being somewhat disingenuous or naive, the general interpretation is that there is no backwards-in-time causality going on in the experiment. What actually happens and what is actually measured it much more confusing and complex than how he described it, and can be explained away via superposition of states, collapse, and later information without needing "the present to affect the past" in the way he describes.

Again though, even though scientists with the alternative explanations don't really, really know what's going on though.

From what I read it would appear that some particles may not be influenced by time (IE photons)

from math the speed of light was determined to be constant however as time passes that is being questioned in light of various phenomena.

another interesting topic that is related (also due to wave nature of things) is the one-electron theory
