[QUOTE="Thomas Bowman, post: 7332916, member: 6925649"] Let me explain a little more about what's going on here. I wanted to create a World on Venus where dinosaurs exist, and Mars with canals, there is magic as well, this is not our Solar System. Not yet. Next task is to get the people of our modern World into this setting. That is where the time portals come in. Time portals are made by bending the fabric of space with gravity creating wormholes. Most of the wormholes here are too small to send actual objects through, but information can go through. Wormholes the size of an atom would be sufficient to send information through. This works in many ways like a Star Trek transporter, you have the sending platform, which deconstructs the object to be sent, here we do that with nanotechnology - molecule sized machines to take things and people apart atom by atom recording the information as deconstruction continues, the information is sent through a tiny wormhole about the size of an atom. Molecular machines on the other side of the wormhole receive the data and using that information reconstruct that which was sent. A person or object is sent through a membrane, much like in Stargate, the membrane consists of nanites, and the object or person is sent through, the part which enters the membrane passes through and is deconstructed entering virtual space, nerve ending entering the membrane still receives information from the deconstructed part - now in virtual space, so it appears the part is still attached as far as the brain in real space is concerned. Travel through the membrane is slow. One much push past it as if passing through molasses. The membrane appears as a silvery fluid that resists passage through. Some of the portals lead to past eras, other portals lead to purely virtual and hence imaginary worlds, in some worlds magic exists, and in others it does not. In the year 2020, a series of portals appear on our world. These red cross hatches are the portal locations in 2020 AD, the lead to corresponding locations on the Banks Orbital Earth projection.
