So this is it? That's all what y'all have to say? No theories or fanatics at all?

[maxidimov]

Time travel is impossible because time is something irrelevant. Time is not something that exsists. It is just a mesaure for the change of objects around us during a moment before that

Don't you just go into space and travel the opposite way to which the earth is spinning at the speed of light?

Or is that from a film...

the funny thing is that if you'd done it and someone on the Earth would measure your speed, you'd still won't move faster than the speed of light. tiny paradox and that's how scientists discovered that there's NO luminiferous aether

Well i say it's impossible,first off as the post above me said time is non-existent.It's just a measure,also about the post that if ur in space and time goes slower for u it is connected to gravity not time.So in this though a time in a black hole goes million times much faster as gravity there is extreme.Also i wathced a documentary on History channel that time traveling is possible via the so called "Worm holes",black holes with such immense gravity that suck u up but don't rip ur atoms apart,instead spinning u at super high velocities(wich in my mind WILL certainly kill u ) ,besides ur not gonna be alone in there,there's also the stellar mass the hole has absorbed so if its spun at super velocity well its going to be heated up to a million degrees or so,and well that kills the possibility of time travel ,at least at this moment we can't build something that can withstand such powerful speed and temperature.Traveling back in time completely impossible,it's all science-fiction ,there's no force in the universe that can make atoms back the way they were say millions of years ago (not even a day ),and now that i think of it,just what maxidimov says kills everything ,time is something we humans have invented for ourselves it's not something natural like gravity,not something u can touch ,feel or hold in ur hand,at least u know gravity exists when u jump off the ground it pulls u back.

er... you guys DO realise it's possible that 1000 years later, when someone'll find the Internet that some handicaped race was using and will decipher it, he'll LHAO for the whole week?

If time traveling would be ever possible in future,someone would travel to our time by now .

Don't you read? Travelling back in time is impossible due to the speed of light. Nothing can travel faster than it.

Speed of sound is beaten, in future perhaps we'd have aircraft faster than light, i'd like to see someone control that aircraft properly

Nope. Light speed cannot be exceeded, its a fundamental law of the universe.

Sorry I meant:
If traveling back in time was possible...

From Wikipedia
Upper limit on speeds

According to special relativity, the energy of an object with rest mass m and speed v is given by γmc2, where γ is the Lorentz factor. When v is zero, γ is equal to one, giving rise to the famous E = mc2 formula for mass-energy equivalence. Since the γ factor approaches infinity as v approaches c, it would take an infinite amount of energy to accelerate an object with mass to the speed of light. The speed of light is the upper limit for the speeds of objects with positive rest mass.

More generally, it is normally impossible for any information or energy to travel faster than c. One reason is that according to the theory of special relativity, if something were travelling faster than c relative to an inertial frame of reference, it would be travelling backwards in time relative to another frame (see Relativity of simultaneity), and causality would be violated. In such a frame of reference, an "effect" could be observed before its "cause". Such a violation of causality has never been recorded, and would lead to paradoxes such as the tachyonic antitelephone.

Exactly.

all I can say is that when I deciphered your discussion, I LMAO-ed all week

[Boysie]

Well if you can't understand it...

Don't bother posting. Just because you don't understand doesn't mean its nonsense and should be laughed at.

I rather tried to suggest that^. whatever. I DO understand you, I had extended Physics course at high school and furthermore I was in that stuff for some, ahem, time.

I'm traveling at 60 seconds/min through the time dimension right now people!

Thus, time travel is very possible.

[Kaosblade]

it's possible. Den_po's already made a patch for it.

and probably someone will make an elf soon so that we won't have to pay for the patch
