Scientific American always amazes me. It is well worth the cost of subscription. I find my self always buying a copy when I go into Barnes and Noble.

Time travel is possible. You need an immense gravitational field ready at hand, like the black hole at the center of the galaxy. Let us know when you have that ready.

I went to Mexico once with some OilField friends of mine.

When I woke up it was three days later.

The information seemingly came into existence from nowhere, reasonlessly.

I noticed this conundrum in the movie "Terminator II", where the robotic hand that is discovered and studied in the past is supposed to have led to the very events that created it. Where did the technology come from?

Crucially, no theory supports the possibility of traveling into the deep past, only into a past where an already constructed wormhole awaits.

No participating in D-day or Pickett's Charge, no attendance at the first Constitutional Congress, no Agincourt, no hanging with the Vandals at the gates of Rome, no sitting down with Eusebius at Nicea, no walking with Jesus through Galilee.

In short, no fun at all.

Time travel is not time dependent. Once it is developed in any time period, it can be made available to any other time pariod in history. Thus, time travel exists "now".

The article forgets that there's more to physics than relativistic theory - Quantum.

In quantum, all things exist simultaneously, the only way we differentiate our lives (as well as linear time) is that our point of observation along our quantum path moves in a linear fashion. In quantum, the ability to travel in time only requires that you move your obsrvation point rather than the entire universe.

If time travel into the past is theoretically possible, and if it will ever be done in the future, then that means that people that are here now may be from the future. We are currently in their past, so they could be coming back to change things here.

Since we don't see people now who are from the future, then we can assume that we won't ever be able to travel in time.

Marty McFly helps out his friend Doc Brown, and ends up being taken back in time by Doc's time-machine. Marty, a boy of the 80's, has to come to grips with being in the 50's and get his parents to fall in love to set straight the damage his presence has done to the events of the past.

Let's go back to November of '92. Better yet, send me back to just before Microsoft's IPO was issued.
