there are serious indication that time travel, not only is impossible but it will always be.
believe it or not. its possible...rub your feet on your carpet and touch a spoon.
It never hurts to believe something MAY be possible and to begin writing down rules for how we would deal with it IF it were to happen. Just like the laws of robotics, although robots are just barely becoming self-aware and capable of interacting with their environments in an autonomous fashion, we have simple laws that COULD be the foundation for their behavior.
Imagination is a wonderful and powerful thing, but we are still learning what the universe is made of, accounting for the missing mass of possible "dark matter" and experimenting with smashing atoms into each other. So, to me this is about as sophisticated as early man striking flint on stone for the first time and making a spark! We will get it, or more importantly YOU (the next generation of scientists) will get it; a further understanding of universal building-blocks and how to manipulate them easily.
Children and teenagers should be watching science programs on television, reading about these topics on the Internet, and finding way to relate the concepts to everyday life so they make "the best" sense. Physics is only as complicated as an untrained mind makes it out to be, and the keys to discovery lay there in the very fabric of space and time before us.
I believe we will achieve the ability to distort space and travel great distances between planets first, stars second, and then (maybe) time as a third and possibly accidental achievement. For all we know today, time may only be a construct that exists in three dimensional space for physical beings such as ourselves. There may come a time when "a type of life" based on energy will be discovered and understood, and we may recognize this life's normal pace of existence is AT the speed of life! So, if that happens and a sub-atomic form of life sneezes, does their sneeze travel forward in time?
Good luck young physicists, you need it!
Time travel is possible to some extent because time slows down for you as your speed increases. Although it happens every time you take a walk, it's to such a tiny degree that no-one ever notices. Start talking about speeds of fractions of the speed of light, though, and it is very noticeable indeed.
Having said that, this time dilation effect was measured earlier this year with atomic clocks on vehicles travelling no faster than normal cars.
If we had the technology, it'd be perfectly possible for you to travel a few years away from earth and then back again, to find that hundreds of years have passed here. Unfortunately, the only way this could currently be done is with a nuclear device and a treaty was signed preventing nuclear reactions as part of space travel. It's a shame the same treating didn't prevent the dumping of human waste matter from every shuttle and station that's been up there. There's now so much crap up there that everything returning to earth comes back with a thin film of sewage.
If you travel twice around the galaxy (or the universe, no idea which) at the speed of light it would take you 2yrs but on earth it would be 50 yrs
Also, an atomic clock was flown about in a plane for a bit and was one millisecond ahead of the clock on the ground...
i don`t even know whats possible any more the whole space, time, continuum is so complex. You don`t even know.
it's really not a matter of whether we believe it exists or not
you can also not believe in the principles of quantum physics, but that doesn't make them any less real
likewise, you can believe in edward cullen all you want, but that doesn't make him any less fictional
so, in essence, whatever way we can prove time travel or disprove it will suffice for me
aren't we technically travelling forward in time? if the universe didn't move, i suppose that we would be stopped in time, which would make sense
(what is time anyway?)
i dont thinks its possible becuz wouldnt we see ppl from the future if it was?
I believe in time travel in dreams and visions not in the natural though.
Time is a man made concept, a very useful one. hard to explain but there is no time line, man just uses this "time" to pin point the space between when things happened. so nah you cant travel back in "time"
no i don't think it exsists.. while i really hope it would come true some day in the future.
Time travel is most certainly possible, but frankly the aspect of 'time travel' most likely would just, simply put, place you on alternate dimensions, rather than, literally back in time, and if returning to your time you would simply just take the 'you' spot on another dimension built just because of what you have done. Because if you 'were' able to go 'back in time' reality itself would of been altered horrifically, and frankly most things would probably cease to exist.
I think it could be possible, but how to get there. oh, and would you actually be in our past, or would would you simply travel to a universe at that point in time?
well it could be possible acording to quantum physics because i know that if you set 2 atomic clocks and take one around the sun and back the one on earth will be slitly faster as enistein predicted time slows around massive objects
i don't believe in time travel but here comes dappled again with his know-it-all ass
technically we all travel through time just by existing. and we could go forward in time if we could go fast enough. i dont think we can go back though
If you go faster than the speed of light apparently you'll go back in time.
Scientists have only been able to make something go 99.9998% of the speed of light, or something ridiculous like that XD they haven't managed to beat it yet
Time travel is impossible unless you can go past the speed of light. You can't travel through time by walking.
You kind of can - it's just only billionths of a second and people can't detect that (but atomic clocks can). Hence the experiment earlier this year.
