When Cooper got out of the tesseract, it showed him as one of those beings touching hattaways hand when they were in the wormhole. Howd that happen?



Not exactly sure to be honest, but Cooper is not a Fifth Dimensional Being. He was just put into a portion of it briefly from a parameter that his mind would be able to comprehend, but he didn't transcend into basically infinite as he would have he had truly become one.

Even if space and time was on a continuum, he still wouldnt be able to touch her hand. So I thought...maybe he did go back in "time".

quote:

Space-time does not evolve, it simply exists. When we examine a particular object from the stand point of its space-time representation, every particle is located along its world-line. This is a spaghetti-like line that stretches from the past to the future showing the spatial location of the particle at every instant in time. This world-line exists as a complete object which may be sliced here and there so that you can see where the particle is located in space at a particular instant. Once you determine the complete world line of a particle from the forces acting upon it, you have 'solved' for its complete history. This world-line does not change with time, but simply exists as a timeless object.

I know this is subject to individual interpretation, but I view the tesseract as a sort of "suit" by which he was placed, artificially, into the 5th dimension - an artificial interface, akin to an adapter connecting RCA jacks to HDMI (if that doesn't slip too far into nerd speak).
