Chronology - The Young-VanDriel Time Loop
Examine the time loop chronology or return to Sunnydale MU Main screen
Chronology of events in the creation of the Young-VanDriel Time Loop:
- 1221 BC - Probe arrives at Cygnus X-1 via Helical time-path
- 1769 AD - R. D. Young born
- 1831 AD - Young postulates theory of paradimensional dynamics
- 1881 AD - R. D. Young dies
- 1911 AD - Formation of Sunnydale MU (loop 1)
- 1951 AD - Rediscovery of the Young paradimensional hypothesis by then undergraduate M. VanDriel
- 1953 AD - Creation of the Zarkov Laser Communications array at Sunnydale MU
- 1965 AD - VanDriel (now on Faculty) begins practical application of Young's theories
- Oct. 1978 AD - Receipt of loop 1 time data via Oculis Vacui through Zarkov array (creation of loop 2)
- Nov. 1978 AD - Nobel prize in physics posthumously awarded to R. D. Young
- Jan. 1979 AD - Rosinante Project begins. (loop2)
- 1981 AD - Rosinante Project begins (loop 1)
- 1995 AD - Neulander invents trans-light drive
- 1998 AD - Launch of Rosinante rocket and Oculis Vacui probe. (loop 1)
- 3598 AD - Probe arrives at Cygnus X-1 via trans-light drive and initiates Helical time-path
While this precis of the relevant events in the creation of the Young-VanDriel time-loop is
cursory, it will give the student a flavour of the nature of the task which has been undertaken. It is
important to note that the entire creation of the time-loop was at first merely the by-product
of our initial wish to study the singularity of Cygnus X-1. The fore-thought of members
of the project in including data disks of the relevant history of 1978-1998 for loop 1 in
the Oculis Vacui data relay was fortuitous, allowing those who received this information
to go about creating the first ever successfully documented time-loop. Congratulations!
