In the article, in order to expand the horizons of legal science, the problems of future legal regulation with Another Mind, its subjects are considered. According to the author, based on the premise that the Universe is boundless both in space and in time, and “everything can be” in it, in a monochronological projection, where time moves from the past through the present to the future, subjects of Another Mind are both of earthly origin, and alien, alien, alien, galactic, etc. origin, having a carbon basis, as well as subjects of a different basis - silicon, radiant, plasmoid, etc., represent, when entering into appropriate relations with them, a legal component that can be considered a metapravo. And in the multichronological projection, where time is parallel, perpendicular, diagonal, as well as faster and slower – in the widest ranges – compared to ours, etc., relations with Another Mind are unimaginably more complicated, and their legal component will already be a megapravo.

In conventional electrodynamic theory, the advanced potential solution of Maxwell's equations is discarded on the ad hoc basis that information can be received from the past only and not from the future. This difficulty is overcome by the Wheeler?Feynman absorber theory, but unfortunately the existence of a completely retarded solution in this theory requires a steady-state universe. In the present paper conventional electrodynamics is used to obtain a condition which, if satisfied, allows information to be received from the past only, and ensures that the retarded potential is the only consistent solution. The condition is that a function Ua of the future structure of the universe is infinite, while the corresponding function Ur of the past structure is finite. Of the currently acceptable cosmological models, only the steady-state, the open big-bang, and the Eddington-Lema�tre models satisfy this condition. In these models there is no need for an ad hoc reason for the preclusion of advanced potentials.

Heraclitus declares the being (that which exists, nature) but identifies it with becoming, but Parmenides declares just the Being; only what is, is, what is not, is not. All “follows” from that: change, he argues, is logically impossible and so what is, is one and unchangeable! This dazzling absolute monism is in daring disagreement with sense perception, but curiously it has found a well-known genius as a supporter. Emboldened by his theory of relativity, Einstein considers the universe as a four-dimensional “block” (a space-time continuum like a loaf of bread) which, remarkably, contains all moments of time (of past, present, and future) always, and where change is an illusion. He said, “For we convinced physicists, the distinction between past, present, and future is only an illusion, however persistent.” In the block universe, the past is not gone, it is present; and the future, like the present, is, well, present, too.

Taking into account the historical and legal aspects, the article examines the current problems of improving the system of contractual relations of construction activities. The doctrine’s lack of attention to the study of contractual relations on construction, taking into account the combination of socio-economic factors and trends in the development of civil and legal regulation, has been revealed. The theoretical development of the problems of unification and differentiation of contractual relations on construction taking into account the specifics of construction and installation works was noted. The improvement of the civil-legal regime of contractual construction activities is seen in the adoption of the consolidation act.

In the past decades, the scientific view has changed from a static to a dynamic universe. So should our worldview progress and, in particular, the relation between science and religion. In today's scientific worldview, the future is open. The universe is not a clock, but an adventure. Though not directly expressed today, science is often perceived implicitly as the key to the foundations of reality, a function previously assumed mostly by religion. However, science does not include all of human experience, nor does it pose and answer ultimate metaphysical questions. Thus, science is not complete and does not fulfil the necessary conditions to be a culture. Scientific results form a part of culture and should be amalgamated with the rest. The relation between science and religion must ultimately develop beyond the classical forms--conflict, ignorance, dialogue, or integration--towards a collaboration between engaged scientists and theologians pursuing well-defined goals.

It is argued that the accretion of phantom energy onto a wormhole in a universe with a positive cosmological constant leads also to a gradual increase of the wormhole throat radius, which eventually overtakes the super-accelerated expansion of the universe and becomes infinite at a time in the future before the big rip. Thus, the universe as a whole can time travel toward the past or the future.

Indonesia is a country that has many local cultures including one of them is Ajar pikukuh sunda (Sundanese Wiwitan) which is in Padepokan Bumi Dega Sunda Academy Bandung. In the teachings of Sundanese pikukuh there is a ritual that is always carried out, namely the offering. However, many people misinterpret the ritual offerings so that they are referred to as givers of demons and polytheists. The purpose of this study was to determine the meaning of offerings in Sundanese Pikukuh (Sunda Wiwitan) Teachings at Padepokan Bumi Dega Sunda Academy Bandung. This research methodology is descriptive qualitative with case studies. The results of this paper conclude that the ritual offerings carried out in Ajar Pikukuh Sunda (Sundanese Wiwitan) have a very high and noble meaning. The teaching materials / means in the ritual are all the same, namely water, earth, fire, and wind, animal elements, and plant elements. The meaning of offerings carried out by the Sundanese Pikukuh Teachers at Padepokan Bumi Dega Sunda Academy Bandung is a prayer ritual as a form of gratitude to our ancestors, the universe, to our parents, or to everything that has supported us so far, because without them we will never exist so that by using the means of sasajen from the natural elements it will be able to reconnect the energy of the past with the future.

Mediaeval scholars attempted to fit received data and information from empirical observation into a pre-ordained model of the universe. Astrology was, and in many cases still is, a form of applied astronomy held by its adherents to be verifiable by events, that is, history. Drawing connections between celestial coincidences and events known to have happened under such circumstances in the past seemed to offer a possibility for predicting types of occurrence which might take place given a similar stellar conjunction in the future. In their turn some historians, especially those with university connections, subsequently seem to have used astrological records annotated with details of actual events as a source of information for their own work and were able to present, where relevant (in their view), a star-told causation of events. The importance of astrology at royal courts in England, France and Italy has been a subject of special study for a considerable time but the largest centre for astrological study in the fifteenth-century was the University of Cracow. The use of astrology at Jagiellonian courts in the fifteenth century is examined here with reference to the use of such data by court historians such as Jan Długosz and Bernard Wapowski.
