Since I was very young, people were saying to me, if we knew all what the scientist know, we would go crazy.

I really dont know about time travel, I dont think it is possible, but teleportation maybe one day, I dont know either,

But even, if we were assured that the biggest world collider would not be dangerous, I did not believe it intirely, it is not working for now anyway, that does not mean I am really afraid of it, I will sleep anyway when it will be restart.

So the response I dont think time travel is possible, but who knows???

From what I've gathered, time is a fourth dimension in addition to the other three. In that sense, you could conceivably travel backwards and forwards (figuratively) in this fourth dimension, similar to how you back up and go forward in your car.

As far as paradoxes go, I'm going to have to go with Kaku on this one. If you alter time in a way that would cause a paradox, instead you alter time in a very similar but parallel universe to your own and become part of that universe.

To be honest, if we went at the speed of light, it would quite difficult to navigate, as there are really to many objects in space, so it will kind of hard not to bump into something

If you could travel from London UK to Auckland New Zealand in say 5 hours you would be in the future by almost a day.
Because we in NZ are 24 hours ahead of Greenwich mean time.
This is true, but I'm just kiddin'
I don't believe in time travel in physical nature.
I know there have been experiments with accelorators and in the findings there is a discrepancy in time but I believe there is an interdependancy of time and space.; but this gets a little too much above my understanding of quantum physics...


If you can think it, you can do it! --> Eventually.

Speaking as someone that is a christian and has studied the scriptures for close to 50 years, I think that it is a possiblity, even thought our visiting either is probably unlikely. The scriptures says that God resides in all times, so the past, present and future times are there for access, the problem is our incapacity to get there.

Time travel itself is impossible.

It's impossible because it's just a human concept and not an actual demension or force.

Time is just a unit of mesurment.

The result of distance and speed.

The truth is everything that can exist already does all at the same time.

It's just a matter of vibrational frequency.

Think of it like a radio....we can only listen to 1 station at a time but we know that all the other stations are playing at once.

Our concept of time provides us with a sense of consistancy.

In a way it's possible to "time travel" only your not travelling back or forward, rather your travelling to a different "now" like changing the station on a radio.

All forms of past, present, and future are just multiple "nows".

I once had a conversation with a physics teacher about this.

He told me, time is a one-way flow, so you cannot go backward in time, ever, at all. However, you could speed up the time flow locally (theoretically), thus meaning several years would pass in a matter of seconds. But there woul;d be no way of going back.

I thought that you might like some perspective from another source. Get touchy.

You never know whats possible. I'd love to back to the 1960's -1970's. That way I could meet Martin Milner and Kent McCord. Besides those were the best years for cars. Well the 1970's were for the Plymouth Duster!!
