time travel forward is possible... im doing it right now. time is passing as i type therefor im traveling forward in time. what do you think about that. eh?
One direction - one speed - Just like everyone else. How fast someone would be traveling in time would be measured in change of time over change of real time, which is just a constant without a unit, I still don't think it's possible.
keep believing that and at least we won't mess that one up any more then SOME one already has. =^^= .../\...
why bother to explain anything, even if its possible nobody would believe it, even if it was true nobody could understand the science either so why waste the breath. Or google Philadelphia Experiement if you want more information to condemn.
do you really thing rome 'just happened'? without the medling of time travellers, minoen create would have been the super power of the mediterainien and the nations of the tuatha de of western europe the other. steam and electricity would have both been common, though not as completely harnessed as they have been on our time-line since, by what we would call 1100 a.d., excepet on that natural unaltered time line the old calenders were kept, and while a devine revilation of belief did take place at a comperable temporal point, its fallowers having been under no pressure to, did not become militant and fanatical. thus the library at alexandria was not burned and none of euripidies trite drival was lost to posterity as so much of it has been on ours. obviously i cannot tell you how i know this. not only is such information highly classified, but earth history was never my major specialty. =^^= .../\...
anything is possible. it just may not be possible with the technology we have at the moment. but as our technological society progresses, more answers will be fufilled, and more questions will be spawned.
So, OK...if several world goverments think time travel is possible enough to spend FOUR BILLION POUNDS STERLING on CERN... ...time travel might just actually be possible after all, kids. :::::::::::::::: Time travellers from the future 'could be here in weeks' Roger Highfield, Science Editor Telegraph.co.uk Last Updated: 6:01pm GMT 06/02/2008 Physicists around the world are excitedly awaiting the start up of the £4.65 billion Large Hadron Collider, LHC - the most powerful atom-smasher ever built - which is supposed to shed new light on the particles and forces at work in the cosmos and reproduce conditions that date to near the Big Bang of creation. Prof Irina Aref'eva and Dr Igor Volovich, mathematical physicists at the Steklov Mathematical Institute in Moscow believe that the vast experiment at CERN, the European particle physics centre near Geneva in Switzerland, may turn out to be the world's first time machine, reports New Scientist. The debut in early summer could provide a landmark because travelling into the past is only possible - if it is possible at all - as far back as the point of creation of the first time machine. That means 2008 could become "Year Zero" for temporal travel, they argue. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/earth/main.jhtml?xml=/earth/2008/02/06/scitime106.xml ::::::::: Interesting his article says last updated 2 weeks in the future.
the one has been confirmed by many repititions, the other has yet to be. real science is of course the only real KNOWLEDGE, but existence is under no constraint to begin and end with what is known. science, and scientific thought, and that is what REAL science fiction is about also, begins and ends with asking questions and letting the evidence speak for itself. NOT with the pretense of anything being absolutely and certainly "known". the existence of any such thing as a fact, is itself a fantasy. only a well documented probability is not. and then only that it IS a PROBability. =^^= .../\...
pretty close. real science fiction inspires real curiousity, and what people get curious about is that much more likely to be explored, so in that sense, science fiction IS almost self fulfilling. of course authors are only human, and often get the details a little off, but for the most part the're NOT TRYING TO PREDICT, just tell a good story, believably, in unusual enough settings to be interesting. but many of the people who do go on to make inportant discouveries in real science, did get inspired by science fiction earlier in their lives, to go on to explore and discouver what they later do. =^^= .../\...
if time travel were to be invented in the future would they not have came back in time and told us so?
Not if things turn out the way I think they will - time machines being something in which a person can travel through time, limited only by the years that the machine is operational (suppose a time machine is built and starts operating in 2034 and after working for 80 years it finally ceases working in 2114. Any time traveller could step into it between those years and travel to any other time during those years)
I'm really confused about this subject. First of all, the John Titor thing. He's supposed to be from the year.. i dont remember.. hmm 2036? that's not very far from now. If he really exists, he should be like 10 yrs old right now. How come no one ever talked to him or anything? this sounds to me like pure bulls.. Think about it for a sec. How can it be true? how can you just jump into a delorean and go back to 1984? or.. 3045? That's just NOT POSSIBLE AT ALL. Time is something we actually invented, minutes, seconds and hours.. days, years... that's just a way to keep track of our lives in a very methodic way. This is not something you can play with, go back and see what your parents did when they were 17 yrs old. It doesn't make any sense. If time travel was possible, we would have lots of "future ppl" around here claiming to be from the future.. and stuff like that. It doesn't make any sense.
I think that time travel will be possible as soon as we figure out inter-dimensional travel. ---------------- Now playing: Lycia - Give Up The Ghost
those "authors" traveled back in time and through stories put their futuristic technology to speed up the technological advancement of our modern society
i thought according to einstein's theory of relativity, one could speed up or slow time relative to time somewhere else, but not technically travel in time. by that i mean that you could essentially travel forward in time, or make have months pass for you while only a few seconds passed on earth, but not travel back in time.
