[QUOTE="Steerpike, post: 611651, member: 807"] I'm not sure what [u]you[/u] mean by imaginary time? In the field of physics, Imaginary time is NOT something like an imaginary friend - that does not exist. It does exist, but it has properties different from that which we regard as 'time' on a day to day basis. Not fictional properties, but properties that are fully exploitable by mathematics. They just are unnecessarily complex to need them in ordinary activities such as having tea at 4pm. But anyhoo... to answer your question, the Large Hadron Collider would be the first port of call, and next ever-better telescopes that can see further out into the cosmos, and hence further back in time.
