Is there any active research in this field? I would imagine it would be a topic of interest for a variety of reasons:1. Real time communication (and control) with probes in space and other planets.2. Real time communication with astronauts.3. Possibilty of sending information backward in time.
We detect em wave signals front on only and therefore consider the travel time to be the distance divided by the speed of light. On average it takes about 14 minutes for light to get from Mars to earth. However, if matter is a rotating planar wave with greater velocity at greater radii, then signals would be instantaneous albeit very weak signals. If we could detect such weak signals, we might detect and communicate with intelligent life far away.Real time communication might become possible, but I don't think going back in real time is (cause and effect).

Special relativity states that those 2 things are equivalent, because there is no universal definition of "instantaneous." There is no frame to consider the universal frame, so any instantaneous communication could be used to also send messages back in time and create a time loop.
Imagine a photon coming around the sun and heading to earth. The path of that photon might bend somewhat but it lands on earth with a translational motion head on into someone's eyeball.
Now imagine a photon whose path is bent so much that its path comes into a rotation. It will create a positron and electron.
The hypothesis here is that the electron is a rotating wave. The em planar wave fronts fluctuate as they rotate about an axis.
We know that the electron moves in the direction of its axis of spin.
In accordance with em wave theory, the electric field is perpendicular to the magnetic field and both are perpendicular to the direction of motion.
Thus, when an electron rotating wave moves through space, its planar wave fronts must incline in order to maintain that perpendicular direction. Thus its effective length at any one time contracts and its time cycle slows down as the rotating planar wave fronts must travel a longer helical path through space. That is the Special Theory of Relativity for constant motion.
Time travel is merely slowing down ones clock while stationary observers keep their faster pace. The apparent connection between space and time is due to the rotating wave function of matter. If there are rotating waves, then perhaps highly evolved intelligence somewhere has increased detection of their weak signals and and used them in long distance communication.The rotating wave model above assumes constant motion. It has four degrees of freedom: the x,y,z of space for the electron's translational (forward) motion and the rotational vector for time. For the General Theory a 5th degree of freedom is required to allow for gravity.
A force field 🤔
Has there been any progress toward possible FTL communication for instant signaling between planets? If so would then then allow for communication into the near past (6-12 months)?
if relativity is entirely accurate then there never will be progress.
