Backwards time travel is impossible even theoretically apparently. Forward travel is possible with fast enough space ships. Not really, its not time travel per se, but the effects of gravity on time (notably space-time). The faster you travel, the greater your mass becomes, with a singularity point when you achieve infinite mass, necessary to exceed the speed of light. Because mass produces gravitational effects, the passing of time would slow down within that field, whilst proceeding normally outside that gravitation field. So in effect you don't so much travel through time, but time travels slower around you. The theory that exceeding the speed of light would create time travel isn't really a theory, its a proposition, because effectively the constant of the speed of light is a defining factor the laws of physics. Effectively its a 'singularity' point - because beyond that point - 'different laws apply' (the fact you'd need to exceed infinite mass suggests it would be a 'break in space-time'). Of course to achieve that would require infinite energy (itself a problem). To me, it would suggest that even achieving the speed of light would effectively transform all existing energy in the universe into the state of matter (mass). The exception is the Enstein-Rosen-Podolsky Bridge, which is a tunnel through 'the curve of space time'.

See. Too much speed taken with too many physicists = too much bollocks.

Can you PM me 5 exact results/scores for this weekend's football and I'll believe you.

You're from the future, go look it up on google... far as i am concerned, no rot has set in, only shallow, naive fans.
But I won't spoilt it for you

It is so like this website for people to be cynical about the OP.
