Calculating safe destination coordinates for either time or inter-dimensional travel...wow.

Remember, we’re on rotating Earth, orbiting our Sun, orbiting the center of our galaxy, which is zooming through the universe, which is...?

Time travel ahead just one minute — where are you then? How far has your start position moved relatively through space? Earth’s surface rotated 17 miles, while Earth moved 1,116 miles in its orbit, while the solar system moved 3,400 miles in its orbit, while the galaxy moved...

A infinitesimally small error lands you inside the planet. Talk about a stoner trip!

WE can only speculate that who ever has a time machine has figured that out—They could be 100 years ahead of us in such things. Imagine the science of 1920 compared to us today.
