I think theoretically, from what we know now, it should be possible. we dont have the technology to do it, nor the knowledge, but right now we dont have anything that proves that it is impossible. It makes sense to, since if space and time are one and the same, and we can travel space, it should make sense that we can travel time
It is never possible to time travel.
First we have to announce what time really is, which is the placement of the Earth in correlation to the sun. So if we go back in time, that is technically only moving the the Earth back to where it was, but not us. THEREFORE: We cannot time travel.
But later in the existence of humans, we might be able to. So don't take my word of it.

I wouldnt be so sure. gravity affects the fabric of spaceTIME, so it would definitely have SOME kind of affect, idk what tho
[QUOTE=The freeman;21397357]It is very possible to time travel. There is no law of physics that can prevent time travel, take a look at black holes. You have the center of the black hole (forgot name) where anything can happen, come out, or be destroyed. The only problem is the earths rotation around the sun. When the time traveler's device and him go into the warp of time there is no gravity property, meaning that he will not stay on earth so he has to plan his time extremely correctly so that he does not re-appear into anything or else the molecular structure will destabilize. Another problem is the warp of time. Science does not know anything about the warp of time like pressure and properties, meaning that if the pressure is too high or low when you get back to earth's gravity pressure you could be crushed or stretched dramatically, basicly you could die. The other thing is new development, buildings are always building. Its the same thing with clipping into something, the structure of the molecule will fail and a wide range of everything will disappear into nothing. Another thing is the fact that there is no past or future because EVERYTHING is in the now. Trying to time travel could in fact destroy everything in space and time so that would be the end. Nothing new would happen. So time travel is possible but very risky.

or, I guess the simplest solution is to just fly around the earth clockwise ( opposite to how earth spins) and see if that works
Possibly, but not in a long, long time.
Or before the sun blows up.
Which ever comes first.

the fabric of space time could be a place or nothing at all. Who knows, but if its a place it could be anywhere. Earth is NOTHING compared to space meaning for the gravity property to be applied you would need the fabric to be on a gravity based planet.
Well we won't find out until we figure out how to produce 1.21 gigawatts of power. So there's no use in speculating.
[QUOTE=TheBrokenHobo;21396976]I always thought that if we did figure out time travel, that you must not be able to see yourself or something because if you went back in time to when you were younger, your younger self would see you and I'm pretty sure that you haven't met your future self, have you?[/QUOTE]
maybe its like harry potter, where she does see her future self in prisoner of azkaban

well, according to einstein, space and time are really the same thing right, and gravity makes a distortion in the fabric of space time. When close enough to earth, it obviously distorts space, thats why we stay on earth, so it would make sense if it affects time, which it does, like satalites have to change their clock settings to balance for this, otherwise they would be behind cuz without gravity, time is slower
Gravity cannot effect time as gravity is a property and time is ever lasting. Gravity can die out on earth (core dies out) and everything will be slow because when the no gravity property is added everything looks slow but is going the same speed in time. Time has no relation to gravity other than the looks of gravity.

It is in theory possible to travel into the future (I think a Russian cosmonaut who spent years on Mir actually traveled like one second in the future?). Past is very unlikely, because there is probably no past to go back to.
Any time travel changes that will happen have happened, so we haven't got anything to worry about yet. If they did make time travel, the only possible safe use would be going to the future to get better technology. But the future wouldn't like having primitive people come to the future to steal their ideas so they would be sent right back empty-handed each time.
Time travel is a bad idea in general. Focus on intergalactic travel first.
If time travel would happen we would be seeing it now, or at least see people from the future just stand still there forever.

When you cross the dateline the date resets.
Not this time around.
Ask that theoretical scientist that is in the wheelchair.
The 2523 centuary just called, they wanted their discussion back.
[QUOTE=fnj;21382424]In a way I think it has but maybe by someone from the future who has gone to the past which in turn would mean that the actual first time would be overwritten by the fact that he went to an earlier time and used the time machine then but has been manipulating time in a way that now we think history altering events happened because of certain circumstances but in actuality it was because there's a dude out there that stepped on a cockroach with an anormal DNA chain which had it lived and reproduced would have developed a defense mechanism that allowed it to smash its own atoms and create mini nuclear explosions that reached a distance of 100 yards. Making them rulers of the Earth.[/QUOTE]
Punctuation, motherfucker. Have you heard of it?
IMO, time travelling into the future is already possible. If you think of time dilation and that stuff. However, I don't think it will be possible to travel into the past. But hey, impossible is nothing...
Can't say it's not possible.
A certain Mr. Hawking said: Radiation is the main problem.
Yeah supposedly mr Stephen Hawking is answering our questions this weekend on some show. I saw a commercial for it.
