Scientists trying to take advantage of the unusual properties of the quantum realm say they have successfully simulated a method of backward time travel that allowed them to change an event after the fact one out of four times. The Cambridge University team is quick to caution that they have not built a time machine, per se, but also note how their process doesn’t violate physics while changing past events after they have happened.

In future news, scientists declare this area of study a complete waste of time after winning the lottery on their 4th time ever gambling.

Phenomenal, and frightening, considering the world we live in is regressing.

Who knows. Maybe the people who view the past with rose colored glasses will get a rude awakening. Unlikely, I know.

This is the advent of the retrograde of our past.

For discussion of everything rum and uncanny, from cryptozoology (mysterious or out-of-place animals), UFOs, high strangeness, etc. Following in the footsteps of Charles Fort and all those inspired by him, like the field of anomalistics.

As this community is on Feddit.uk it takes a British approach to things but it needn't be restricted to the UK - if it's weird and unusual it probably has a home here.
