If you are in a time dilation gravity well, the mere act of outsiders traveling into it might be time travel itself, as they are traversing the well from the outside (what you would think of as the future) to reach a point inside where time is lagging behind.
- anonymouskimmer 4y agoTime may be lagging behind, but you aren't traveling backward in it. Merely transitioning to a slower tick-tock cycle.
- xwdv 4y agoSo in that case traveling into the heart of the well would feel like you are fast forwarding the events of the well until you gradually synchronize with the tick cycle and things move at normal speeds? In which case you could never reach the exact moment of the event you set out to see.
