http://www.lifesci.sussex.ac.uk/home/John_Gribbin/timetrav.htm I read through the entire thing. It's quite long, but it goes into detail about how current physics laws do not disprove the notion of time travel. I thought it was quite fascinating. I doubt the website is some kind of hoax, but who knows? Thoughts?
it's true...i just came back from 2009 - isn't it great to be a fan of the 5 straight NBA Championship team - the ROCKETS I still can't believe Yao kept on growing to 8'10"
I was going to read it but my future self came back and told me it was a waste of time. He also said that people would ridicule this thread for no good reason.
Time travel raises too many issues for me. I like to consider quantum teleportation more, even if it's just used for communication or quantum computing in our lifetimes.
I couldn't seem to find the nearest wormhole, so my only other option was to move faster than the speed of light, but the last thing that went through my mind before I did was my ass. The parallel universes and paradoxes thing freaks me out.
alaskan? You can travel over the NORTH POLE and quickly be in a past DAY. You might need 10.5 Jigowatts of power, though.
This is one thing I have absolutely no thoughts on. It's too complicated for me. I just can fathom time travel scientifically.
I didn't read the article but I've read some other stuff that doesn't rule out time travel. The most possible seems to me would be using wormholes where one end connects to a different point than the other in space and time. I don't know if this was covered in the article but I think there's a string theory possibilty of passing through one of the small extra dimensions to a different point of space-time. I myself like the idea that time is our perception of expansion of the universe in a fourth dimensional space, like how a two dimensional being living on the surface of a balloon would percieve the expansion of the balloon in three dimensional space. If so then we could travel backward in time by figuring out to move backward through the fourth dimension to an earlier position of the universe.
It seems obvious to me that mankind never is able to travel backwards in time. Otherwise, it would seem that we would have indisputable proof that it has happened, yet we have never seen a time traveller from the future.
The link provided addresses this issue in a variety of ways...all of which, clearly, are just theory.
