How did Cooper manipulate the watch?

In the movie we see him pushing with his fingers on the world tube of the watch’s second hand. His pushes produce a backwards-in-time gravitational force, which makes the second-hand twitch in a Morse-encoded pattern that carries the quantum data.

How Morse code is used in interstellar?

You take your finger and tap the opening. You could feasibly communicate with someone via morse code by manipulating the air flow. Now, Cooper is given the tesseract, which allows him to reach between dimensions of time and space, which the future us have harnessed.

What does the watch symbolize in interstellar?

Cooper’s Watch (Symbol) Cooper’s gift of a watch to Murph in their tear-jerking goodbye scene is a symbol of their connection across time.

Why did Cooper tell himself?

Cooper says “Stay” because he was initially frustrated with leaving Murph and knowing how hopeless the situation becomes. Then he realises that “they,” the future humans, chose Murph to save the world, so he needed to guide Murph to NASA to help out.

What did Cooper say on the watch interstellar?

The message reads: “STAY.” Cooper assures Murph that ghosts aren’t real, even if fifth dimensional beings are definitely real, and leaves. Interstellar happens. Then, on the far end of the galaxy, Cooper goes into the black hole Gargantua.

What did Cooper say on the watch Interstellar?

What is the Tesseract Interstellar?

The Tesseract is an enormous, hyper-cubic, grid-like structure and a means of communication for the bulk beings to express action through gravity with NASA. The bulk beings can perceive five dimensions as opposed to four, able to see every moment in the past, present, and future.

How does Cooper move the second hand of the watch?

Cooper plans to move the second hand of the watch he gave Murph to transmit the quantum data in Morse code. TARS is doubtful, but Cooper insists that adult Murph would come back for the watch. He moves his hand through the tesseract wall, manipulating the watch hand, and at the same time we see adult Murph discover its movement.

What happens to the Tesseract when Cooper goes through the wormhole?

Cooper says that one day civilization will evolve past the four dimensions we know and create the tesseract to save themselves. The tesseract slowly dissolves away to white light. Cooper closes his eyes, and then we see him flying through the wormhole as he did before, but this time in reverse.

How did Cooper Cooper get the coordinates from Murph?

Cooper has TARS transmit the quantum data to his helmet as binary code. As he does this, he finds the moment in time when Murph left her window open during the dust storm and uses his hand to manipulate gravity and give his former self the coordinates to NASA in the dust lines on the floor.

What does Tars say about Cooper’s location?

TARS calls Cooper’s location a tesseract, and says he can use gravity to communicate with Murph across time, as he’s been doing by knocking the books off of her shelf. TARS also confirms that he has the quantum data necessary to solve the gravity equation, thanks to the black hole, but that his current transmissions aren’t reaching anyone.
