1-Short Novel:
- "...a science fiction short story by American writer Ray Bradbury, first published in Collier's magazine on June 28, 1952, and later in Bradbury's 1953 collection The Golden Apples of the Sun.[1]
Plot Summary:
"In the year 2055, time travel has become a practical reality, and the company Time Safari Inc. offers wealthy adventurers the chance to travel back in time to hunt extinct species such as dinosaurs.
As the party waits to depart, they discuss the recent presidential elections in which a candidate, Deutscher, has been defeated by his opponent Keith, to the relief of many concerned.
When the party arrives in the past, Travis, the hunting guide, and his assistant warn Eckels and the two other hunters about the necessity of minimizing the events they change before they go back, since even the smallest alterations to the distant past could snowball into catastrophic changes in history.
Travis explains that the hunters are obliged to stay on a levitating path to avoid disrupting the environment, any deviation will be punished with hefty fines and prosecution, Time Safari scouts had been sent back to select and tag prey whose death will have minimal effect on the future prior to the hunt, and the time machine "steps aside" to prevent people from encountering themselves in the past.
... kill the dinosaur and see that Eckels has found his way back to the time machine.Travis threatens to leave him in the past
Upon returning to 2055, Eckels and the rest of the party notice major changes; English words are now spelled phonetically, and worst of all, Deutscher has won the election to the approval of the pro-fascist populace.
Looking at the mud on his boots, Eckels finds a crushed golden butterfly, whose death has apparently changed the nature of the alternative present to which the safari has returned.
He frantically pleads to undo the damage, and the story ends on a gunshot fired by Travis."

- "..."A Sound of Thunder" is often credited as the origin of the term "butterfly effect", a concept of chaos theory in which the flapping of a butterfly's wings in one part of the world could create a hurricane on the opposite side of the globe. "
- "The term was actually introduced by meteorologist Edward Norton Lorenz in the 1960s.However, Bradbury's concept of how the death of a butterfly in the past could have drastic changes in the future is a representation of the butterfly effect and is used as an example of how to consider chaos theory and the physics of time travel.[9]"
- "A Gun for Dinosaur" – Short story by L. Sprague de Camp [ See Also ]
"A film adaptation of the same name starring Ben Kingsley, Edward Burns, and Catherine McCormack was released in 2005.[5] Famed film critic Roger Ebert stated that while he "cannot endorse it, [he] can appreciate it" as a film that is bad because it "want[s] so much to be terrific that [it] explode[s] under the strain."[5]"

"...a dimensional energy which allows instantaneous travel within the Nine Realms. It was used primarily by the Asgardians, who were able to use a Rainbow Bridge
to harness the energy and access the Bifrost in order to travel to and
protect those realms. The Bifrost was also able to be called upon using
dark magic and was also imbued into Stormbreaker,
allowing its wielder to access the bridge at any time. The immense
dimensional energy, given enough concentration, could also be used to
destroy planets. Whenever it is used, it leaves a pattern-like marking. "
