Time travel is possible, but not probable since you would have to move your mass backwards or forward to the point that the Earth was in during the time period you wish to visit and then back to the point and time of origin.

The Earth and solar system are moving thru space at about 13 miles per second(IIRC) around the hub of the galaxy which is also moving thru space at an even faster speed. The positional calculations alone are a real bear, and when you look at the energy requirements, and that you have to take that energy supply and a computer, with you to get back, it gets unsurmountable real fast.

For those and other reasons we won't be time traveling anytime soon, if ever.

I just wish I could send a small piece of paper backwards to myself, about 30 minutes, with 6 numbers on it.

Great points. Somehow in all of the hoopla surrounding time travel, I somehow never thought of this. Of course now that you point it out, it seems perfectly obvious.
