Thomas Kearny (d. 2047) was a physicist who initially developed, along with Takayoshi Fuchida, the theory of hyperdimensional motion within subatomic particles and further theorized the possibility for teleportation of matter between two points in space.[1]


Biography

In 2018, Thomas Kearny and Takayoshi Fuchida were working together on a prototype fusion reactor at Stanford University, where they studied what they perceived to be violations of the laws of physics, as then understood. In January, they published the first paper in a series on hyperdimensional motion within subatomic particles; they would hypothesize of the ability to teleport objects between two points in space. In September of that year, they published the paper "What Happened to the Universe When Einstein Wasn't Looking" in the Western Alliance Journal of Theoretical Physics, followed by "Einstein's Theories: The Cooked and the Raw" in 2019 and "Now What?", which would become their most famous paper, in 2020. In 2021, they published "Pan-Dimensionality"; scientific feedback was humorously dismissive (due to the hypothesis being built upon theories that had not gained wide-spread scientific acceptance because of conflicts with Einsteinien theories) and the pair lose their jobs and credibility.[2][1]

Death

Thomas Kearny died in 2047 of food poisoning, a broken and disgraced man.

Vindicated

On September 3, 2107, following the successful test of the Deimos Project's experimental JumpShip, the pair of scientists would be publically vindicated, as noted by a relayed broadcast from the destination nadir point 7 AUs from Sol's southern pole: "Kearny and Fuchida should have lived to see the day."[3]
