Default Time Travel

What do you think about it? Possible? Just a Fantasy?

I say we can't time travel because time is something that we created.

Well, movement through time is possible. Einstein proved it in theory.

time travel to the future is posssible. all we need is a spacecraft that can do the speed of light. go to pluto and come back. time slows down for us becuase of our speed. time will pass as usual on earth. going back in time is a different matter.

that's one way of looking at it. I was thinking more of going foward and back, or vice versa.

Time is considered a dimensions no different from X Y and Z other than we cannot directly interact with it.

There have been numerous theories but unless you like traveling into a black hole I don't think any are going to be test soon.

Good luck gettin gto a black hole. No one can live long enough to make it to one. I dont think Time travel will ever happen. Plus how would you direct to a certain time.


I did a little reasearch and the closest black hole Is believe is 1,600 lightyears away. One lightyear is 5.88 trillion miles.

I don't know, just into a black hole and see

This is an interesting site. I now believe that time travel is possible, but unlikely to happen anytime soon.

It's hard to grasp time it self IMO, because time is relevant. What i mean by relavant is that something that happens at this exact moment here, may be in the future for someone else. Let me give an example...

If lightning strikes in the middle of a field, right on top of someones house @ 8:00:00 p.m. they will see the lightning strike immediately, the person experiences that in the present.

But if someone is ten miles away on a mountain, they would see the lightning strike @ 8:00:01

both people saw the same lightning strike, and there is only one universal set time, but they experienced at two different times

??? You saying that the image takes a second to get there 10 miles away. What if someone was looking from on top of a mountain 10 miles away at someone, and that person 10 miles away jumped off the ground at 5:00.00, the person looking from the mountain wouldnt see them jump until 5:00.01.?

Isn't that where one year in the chamber is one day inside the chamber?

rokstar i don't think you are grasping the concept. Everything takes time for something to happen, whether it be sound, light, movement, it's not instantaneous (oh i spelled that wrong!) Light years are a measure of distance. 1600 light years mean it would take light 1600 years to cover that span of distance.

For instance, the sun's light that you look outside and see, is about 10 minutes old. It left the sun 10 minutes ago.

Take for instance you and your friend are on a mountain, 10 miles away from each other (just go with it). Since light takes time to travel, if your friend turns on a flashlight, it wont just be their when he turns it on. It will take time (although miniscule) to get to you. So you wont see the light the instant he turns on the flashlight, but moments after.

the problem is we have no source of energy that it powerful enough to get such a high speed. Just look at it this way, the closer to the speed of light, the more insanly high ammount of power you need. Were talking starts blowing up and stuff like that. We can only get to 99.99999% of light speed. To get to the speed of light, you need an infinite source of energy (i.e. Light) and well, you go ahead and find an infinite source, and you will be the richest man in the world forever.

duh, dont you all know Dr. Emmitt Brown proved time travel is possible. All you need is a flux compassator.

Time travel is definitely possible.
Albert Einstein showed that space is curved, time is relative, and time travel is theoretically possible.

Whether man can make a machine that will allow a human body to make it thru the voyage in one piece is a completely different story.

Or wether we can travel backwards in time is also not understandable , in fact alot of scientists have denied it being a possibly fact.

The theories and experiments do suggest time travel to the future being a definite possibility.

It's not time travel, it's the theory of relativity. If you were to shoot off at 99% the speed of light, and come back to earth, the time frame in the ship would appear to move slower than the one on earth.

BUT, if the earth could somehow accelerate and catch up to the ship, guess whose time frame would appear slower? The earths.

It's not time travel at all. In fact, no perception of time in 2 different frame, be it 2 different rooms right next to each other, are the same. Is that time travel too?

It is NOT time traveling, just relativity. Even GPS satellites have to take into account relativity when giving time/place data.

*gasp* wait, that means GPS SATELLITES ARE TIME TRAVELING TOO! HOW DID WE MISS THIS?

Oh, and also, e=mc^2 is not a part of the same theory. E=MC2 equates mass to energy, not time at all. Even if you get into relativistic mass and energy that is nowhere near correct. They were conceived by the same person though. A for effort, F for achievement on your part.

If time travel exists, it's going to stir up all sort of shiets. Hell i messed up a test, I'm going back in time. All sorts of things will be changed. It'll get confused as hell if you tell me. Like if u go back 2 years, would u see yourself there? and when would the two of you fuse together? Or do you blow up when you see each other like parallel universe? I understand how manipulate the time dimension but do we have enough "force" to change the course?

What if everybody decides that 2008 is a sucky ass year, and all decide to time travel to 3008. The heck? we're gonna have a milenium with noone on earth? haha
