Yes everyone does, but simply relating it to Noah's ark is so plainly obvious, just wondering if anyone has anything extra on what i think. The antartica thing was true, but to say why the date changed i havnt got an answer for. Its just another un explained thing, you cant explain that it didnt happen, but i have a source to say it did.
HOPEFULLY the link should now work!
What i'm getting at is, if there was a time gate and it did send the balloon back in time the time on the clock shouldn't change at all... Clocks don't 'see' time in the same way we do. So they aren't affected by our definition of time. they act in a purely mechanical way. So for example. lets say you get on a plane in New York and Travel to London. Before you depart you set your watch to 12 am. The journey takes, say, 9 hours. What times does does your watch say in London?? Easy, right? 9 pm. What time is it actually in London?? More like 4 am the next day. The clock doesn't know the difference. It just keeps on going no matter where it is or how it's travelling....
Still not convinced... Well what about this. What if it actually did go back in time? And what if the date did actually change to the date it went back to when it was there? Wouldn't going the opposite way through the time gate have the opposite effect. So, one way sends you back, the other way brings you forward, right? so would the clock turn forward when it was coming forward just as it went backward when it was going backward?? So the date should have been the same when the scientists examined it again. That is unless there was someone in Antarctica 30 years ago to set the clock back another 30 years...

if you read the article it actually says its a chromometre or something, not actually a clock, i was saying it was a clock because I thought you woould have surmised it for yourself. Obviously, I was wrong, you actually beleived they would tie a proper clock with a face and everything to a professional weather balloon? and as for your reversal time question, why shudnt the date be the same? how do you know how far it went INTO the 'gate', it cud simply have got stuck halfway through. And another thing, the laws of time defy that a time wormhole going backwards cannot go forwards in time when being pulled back through, because one hole is in, and the other is out, it dusnt work both ways. The balloon will have been sucked through a wormhole, and to pull it out would have been just like pulling it out of an ordinary hole. Answer that.
