My thinking is that all matter is traveling down a “road” of time. Down the road ahead of matter matter is nothing and the same behind the matter. If some of matter “jumps” down the road (going forward in time), or go backwards down the road (going back in time), it would encounter nothing as all the rest of matter is back where it left it.

Yeah I probably speak nonsense but there it is.

” where an event can be both in the past and future of itself...”

~~~

Of itself, yes. Of course! The future of a past can be contiguous to itself, but the subsequent past will be different than the future and require a separate timeline (or dimension or universe) but in the case of this article, an “adjustment” cannot be explained if the existential reality of the timeline is singular. Then the paradox would negate the abberations

Total rubbish! The cause/effect continuum is absolute. There is no way for mere mortals to break out of it.

If someone went back in Time and changed something, he would be the only one aware of it.

The past is over and the future hasn’t happened yet; there is only the present.

I went back and lent some cash to Bezos, Zuckerberg and Gates. They paid me off in stock so I figured why not invest more with them. Ugly guys but seemed smart.

Every record has been destroyed or falsified, every book rewritten, every picture has been repainted, every statue and street building has been renamed, every date has been altered. And the process is continuing day by day and minute by minute. History has stopped. Nothing exists except an endless present in which the Party is always right.”
― George Orwell, 1984

I just went back to the past and found out that Donald Trump won the 2020 election. Wait, why is Joe Biden president?

As movies such as The Terminator, Donnie Darko, Back to the Future and many others ...

To use a topical example, imagine a time traveller journeying into the past to stop a disease from spreading – if the mission was successful, the time traveller would have no disease to go back in time to defeat.

How could they use this as an example, but just happen to miss 12 Monkeys as a time travel movie?

In reality we live in the multiverse. Multiple timelines exist and if you were to travel back along a timeline and change the future as you knew it you would be creating a new and different timeline.

> No one has yet managed to travel through time... <

Well, forward time travel is an established fact. It’s one consequence of Einstein’s Theory of Special Relativity.You just need to move (at any speed) relative to the Earth.

But for the “time travel” to be readily noticeable, you’d have to move very close to the speed of light. That would be tough for humans to do. But it’s easy for atomic particles to do.

That’s what I think. There’s no such thing as time like there’s gravity or energy. Humans think of time because they observe birth and death, sunrise and sunset, etc. but in reality time is just a concept.

Especially in space where there are no clocks or time reference points.

Even if time travel were possible, the when isn’t as big a problem as the where. The earth is spinning around the axis while wobbling and then orbiting the sun which is hurtling through space along with the rest of the universe.

Doesn’t really matter if I can go forward or backwards in time, if the where of the when is in the middle of empty space when I get there.

In order to travel through time, you have to be able to accurately and effortlessly travel through space.
