While NLT has been given a boost by, well, by being right, the inquiry is far from over.
So the question comes, what is next for NLT. Ignoring the question of "where is my nobel prize" where does the inquiry take us next?
The study of the universe doesn't stop, but here are some thoughts:
1) The event horizon: If a black hole is CT5 and not a worm (or at least wormy) hole as I mistakenly imagined during the writing of The Einstein Hologram Universe, what happens at the event horizon. Some of the answers were actually provided in EHT, because it was already clear that a pure singularity was not working. That included the idea that conversions to other clock time states occurred, i.e. the observed change of matter to energy in a ct4 to ct3 exchange. What we would not see is a CT4-CT5 transition unless the scale was present.
2) Background radiation: While there is certainly background radiation in the universe which EHT saw as evidence of time going linear, it seems unlikely that there was a "big bang" at least not the same type of big bang in NLT. Again, EHT had problems with the big bang since it was only time going linear and NLT saw a universe where there was no dimensional limit, no reason for things to originate in one dimension at a time. NLT sees an event free universe without entropy, at least not the way we understand it. So what is background radiation? Is it the evidence of the singularity itself? The presence of CT6 or 7 in the area?
3) What do 5th, 6th, etc dimensions look like? You might say, what does a fouth dimension look like, but we live in the fourth dimension according to NLT so we already know that. When I talk to people, the ask me what looking at 5 dimensions would look like and I say, that it would be like looking in 3 dimensions, but you'd see a fourth and this "sounds" confusing. Where, you ask, would the 4th line be drawn, in what direction would it go? How little you understand (having not read the book). There are no real dimensions. You can draw in as many as you want because they don't really exist. It is the number changing at once, not the direction in which they run. This is why in our four identical dimension clock time state we see in 3 dimensions. If we were in 3 dimensions and we could only see the page, we would wonder where the fourth would go. But we could draw it, we've all seen that drawing, the three lines, one appearing to go off the page. But could someone living on the page envision this so easily? Yes, it is hard to envision, but if you are only a projection from a singularity without time or dimension it would be easier and we should not let our prejudice of perspective prevent us from realizing that we are drawn on a dimensionless page. So knowing that we exist in 4 dimensions (all the same, not some magic time dimension), it should be easier for us to figure out what the fifth dimension would look like. Let me paint a picture. Time runs in both directions. We say it only runs in one, but in NLT each moment happens all the time. The moment when you started reading this, the moment you are reading this sentence, the moment when you move on, take an aspirin and ask yourself why you read it, they all exist together. The other three dimensions look exactly the same, only the "change" in position along them is "visible" to us. We would see the "time" dimension the same way as any other dimension if it were still, although the very act of "stillness" would prevent us, as beings of change, from seeing it. So a fifth would be much the same, no real change, just a perceived change along one of the 5. No one way streets because all of the streets are only perceived change. Actual change is as illusory as entropy! What a truly amazing singularity, so much more powerful than anything we have imagined before. We live in a place where quantum variability is seen only because of our conceit, the truth being as difficult to accept as our ultimate deaths, but die we do...and die we don't.
