Time travel was born when Albert Einstein's colleague, Kurt Gödel, used Einstein's theory of relativity to show that travel into the past was possible.

Somebody wake up H.G. Wells and tell him.

This begs the question; if they are time travelling, why can’t they be here NOW? Why in weeks?

[AxelPaulsenJr]

Old stuff: John F’n Kerry invented time travel long ago, when he voted for the Iraq war before he was against it, or........

If time travel were possible would Jesus have been crucified?

[4yearlurker]

I won’t ask for much in time travel. I just want to travel ahead to payday.

[commish]

Good, Maybe one will come back and proclaim “DON’T NOMINATE MCCAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!”

[kcar]

Why can’t they get here yesterday?

[McKayopectate]

But why couldn’t they have been here a couple weeks ago to stop Fred from quitting?!

[Jedi Master Pikachu]

Wormholes for space travel.

They’ll tell us that McCain has won the Nomination. Further research will reveal that they’re just McCain operatives trying to suppress the Romney vote.

The debut in early summer could provide a landmark because travelling into the past is only possible - if it is possible at all - as far back as the point of creation of the first time machine

There is a black American scientist trying to do this with lasers... probably could not travel through it but could communicate back, as far as its creation

[pabianice]

Ah... wouldn’t time travelers from the future have already been here, as well as to every other period in history? By their nature, they have already visited the past. Duh!

[petro45acp]

Yeah, they built it at the CERN facility in Geneva... betcha a dollar, the first folks through will be bankers. Yep, go back, open a small savings account, then come back forward and reap the interest.

Of course access will be strictly regulated by the Swiss government. No records will be available and cash will be the way to hide your assets.

mmmmmmm time travel...might be nice to go back, double-tap the guys who took out Marylyn Monroe... or have a “good” cop intercept teddy while fleeing the scene...

“Time Travellers From The Future ‘Could Be here In Weeks’”

But then again, they could have been here yesterday too.

[maine-iac7]

Ah, “year zero” was long before earth time was hospitable to humans - if we’re gonna delve in to time travel - let’s aim for places that have progressed beyond us = way beyond.

Paging John Titor.....

Call me cynical. They must be looking for more funding...

[joebuck]

I hope this device has some other, practical, application so it’s not a total waste of money. Like SETI.

[Proud2BeRight]

Time travel is already possible. In a just over 8 hours from now I will step into tomorrow.

[StarCMC]

Ahem. Ping.
