Now, let us consider the second scenario of sending the fly into the past—one that raises even more questions.
The second scenario involves sending the fly back in time with spatial displacement. This means we teleport the fly not to the same point but shift its coordinates.
At the moment T₀, next to the chamber containing the original fly, there is a second, empty chamber—say, one meter away. This second chamber is intended, figuratively speaking, to “receive” the fly from the future.
It is important to note that the second chamber does not participate in the sending process—it is merely a reception point, not the origin of the teleportation.
In this case, the calculations become exponentially more complex. Moving an object not only through time but also through space—even by just one meter—requires accounting for additional parameters: inertial frames, gravitational and relativistic corrections, and more.
According to the theory of relativity, space and time form a single unified fabric, and any shift in one dimension affects the other. Now imagine how much the energy requirements increase for performing such a displacement— that is, if we assume the principles of relativity theory are valid...
In any case, let’s play out this second scenario of sending the fly into the past with spatial displacement. Let us consider two possible outcomes within this scenario.
So. The first version of the second scenario.
