Scientists prove time travel is impossible
- systemizer 15y agoThere are many theories out there, and this only targets one of them. For example, the multiple universes theory states that we live in multiple realities of spacetime, all of which are isolated. So time travel could be as easy as finding a way to transport oneself between spacetime realities. Also, time travel here seems to be defined as "traveling back in time." The twin paradox still holds: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twin_paradox http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twin_paradox
- mindcrime 15y agoInteresting... but I'm not convinced this "proves time travel is impossible." I am not sure we know enough about time, and how it operates (if that's even the right word) to really speculate about how time travel would work, if it were possible. I mean, Superman movies, Star Trek movies and Doctor Who aside, how much thought has really been given to how we would travel in time, even hypothetically? I know there has been some but is this something serious scientific minds spend time considering???
