Is time travel possible?

I don't think it is, as in the 'Back To The Future' type of time travel. I know time actually slows down the faster you go, but I think the closest most of us will come to time travel is driving a car or running as opposed to walking. The faster you get from point A to point B, the faster you travelled through time. Right? Maybe?

i dont believe it, but anything is possible these days.

The only thing I could see causing it is somehow tapping into a different dimension that lets you travel through time rather than space 😖

and that seriously makes me doubt it happening

Time travel would disrupt our world, so I think there are laws in nature to prevent it 😬

i wouldnt be surprised if a time machine is created, im using back to the future facts for this, so my theory is, if we go to the future or past, a parodox will be created that will mess up the universe, it could be true

heres and example:

your friend got hit by a car and died, years later you created a time machine to save your friend, that was your intention for inventing it, to save your friend, so say it was present time now (2004) and the event happened in like 95', so you go to 95 in the time machine and save your friend somehow from car that was gonna hit him, so my question is, how is that possible? the reason im saying that is because you created the time machine to save your friend. so if you change the event of the cause of going back to the event, it has to like mess up the timeline and the universe

How would you return, since once you save your friend, there would be no point in the machine and it would therefore not exist 😕

exactly, thats kinda my question

Which means you wouldnt be able to go back into the past in the first place and it's just a vicious cycle 😬

oh have you seen back to the future? well if you did your talking about the space time continuim..well thats true....well theres differnet answers by the way you look at it

I have all three actually 😄 I love that movie.

yeh i have the dvd set, i hav the newer box set though, 'cause they messed up the video dimensions in the original dvds when they first came out, so i mailed the disk to them and they replaced it and mailed it back.

That was in that stupid movie The Time Machine.

Anyone read the book Timeline by Michal Crichton (spelling)? It says this wierd shit about how time doesn't exist and its just the way our minds think and etc..read the book

That was in that stupid movie The Time Machine.

well i rele never revloved around that, and plus in the movie, when he prevented it everytime, the girl still died, theres a difference.....

...and the movie wasnt that stupid, i though it was decent and a good plotline, i heard the book is so much better though, all books are usually better

Einstien believe so, and that guy knew everything. Although he did have trouble tying his own shoes whcih is why he wore loafers,so maybe he just got lucky with that whole relativity thing.

Seriously though, yeah time travel is possible,i mean i travel through time just about every night. My girlfriend lives in England and i live in the states, When i call her she is always five hours in the future, but she doesnt tell me how she does it.

theoretically speaking if you could connect two black holes together you could create a rift in time (wormhole) so assuming you werent torn apart into nothingness while entering the wormhole when you come out on the other side you be either be in the future or the past.

Anything is possible, just not very probable. And no, i dont believe time travel is possible and as ar as i know Einstein proved that time travel is not possible, as opposed to being so.

As i said before, knowing the future would be extreamly dangerious for human race.
Traveling into the future would be even more dangerious, as everyone would use it to their own advantage.

what does the relativity of time have to do with time travel. yes, the faster you go, the slower time passes. however, that is only relative to the person't that surround you, not to YOU. Time will pass the same for you going light speed as for the guy sitting and watching. it's just the time of the two rapported to eachother that differs and is relative.

time travel involves the eternal problem. the paradox: two opposing sitiations simultaneously available. Like me meeting myself if in travel into the future or the past...because, you see. time travel (as we percieve it, but shouldn't) is actually taking the person in discussion from 'here' and take it to 'there', instead of taking the person from 'now' and take it to 'then'. That's when the paradox occurs.

if someone dies and everyone mourns him, you go back, save him, then come back to your time..where that someone lives, and no-one mourned him. how is that possible...it's like the reactions to his death never happened in the first place. and you're the only one who knows it. fact is...the world does not revolve around the supposed time traveller. as it would be in that case.

my opinion is that it's not possible....not as we so far percieve it anyway 🙂..us the common folk

Exactly.

Also, lets say we are somehow able to travel through time in the future, and someone from the future comes telling people what is going to happen, would be very dangeruous for us.

If someone came from the future ad told us that a nuclear war is going to occur, then whats the first thing we are gonna do? Start building arms, getting ready for war, wich would do what then? Then it would cause nuclear war anyway, since building your nuclear weapons and arms would provoke other countries....

this was just an example.

Same with plague. If you get told from the future that the plague will come about, the first thing everyone is gonna do is get all ideased/ill people together in camps, which will then create a plague.

Not only is it not possible, but time travel wouldnt be in our advantge.

i dont think it's possible, coz how would they get all of our body peices, emotions, feelings, thought......basically how would they get our physical and emotional things from one time to another?
