If time travel were ever possible I suspect it would be a one way trip forward.
If people in the future are smart they would prevent a traveler from returning to the past anyway.
But thing is, someone would have eventually done it at some point, after a certain number of years someone would very likely come along with the proper planning skills and determination to defy any orders not to go to the past. There’s just too many attractive incentives available for someone interested in going to the past.
Time Travel forward IS possible. We all do it at the rate of 1 second into the future per second.
Now, if you want to compress your travel, you merely need to get your velocity up to close to lightspeed, relative to where you want to visit the future of. That’s standard Einsteinian Mechanics, the Lorentz-Fitzgerald equation. . .
“If time travel were ever possible I suspect it would be a one way trip forward.”
Yes I’ve heard that this is what scientists think might be possible (what’s with the Michigan guys I don’t know, I just hope we’re not paying for it). I said that here once on a similar thread and another Freeper pointed out that we’re time traveling to the future RIGHT NOW, only slowly!
