Now you've really got me flummoxed, I don't know whether I'm coming or going, :wink: :wink:
 
I think this is where the reasoning behind this theory will have more credibility with the big switch on at Cern and its collider could start a timeline where future time travellers could step back into our time on the very second they manage to fire up the first successful experiment and create black holes and such, although the black holes they will supposedly produce will be miniscule and in our time nothing could pass through the wormholes they may or may not produce, who knows what technology future science may produce and todays obstacles may be a breeze to overcome by future man.

So although it sounds like a bit of geeing up the band of journalists that are bound to descend on the complex on that day, whose to say whether future travellers may not appear in a few months time?
 
wouldn't it be strange that some day in June our world could be turned upside down and what we see as normal life may turn into an episode of Doctor Who with aliens marching up and down the high street chasing those pesky time travellers.

I dare anyone to say it definitely won't happen :lol:
 
Ooh the forum's gone Quantum

Fascinating reading if you can stretch your brain round it - the 'back of cereal box' version can be found in Michael Chrichton's 'Timeline' - it's got obvious liberties taken with the science but gives a good basic idea of some of the principles involved e.g. superstring theory, quantum foam etc.

I personally like the principle of Schrodingers manager - manager is shut in a soundproof windowless office with no external communication, at this point all his employees exist in a state of quantum flux where they can be hard at work, down the pub or snoozing in bed all at the same time...

There's a reasonable probability that they'll be working more efficiently than they ever did with the manager breathing down their necks. In fact they 'll be so efficient that they'll get all their work finished early then clear off to that well known pub The Manager's Discretion - having first parked their cars at The Owner's Risk. :lol: :lol: :lol:

I'm not so sure :wink:
 
There was a young lady called Bright,
Who could travel much faster than light,
She set off one day,
in a relative way,
And came back the previous night.
 
If time travel was possible, why has the man from the future not visited ?

Firstly you have to accept that the future has already happened, for someone to come back from it.

If the future has occurred, then its doubtful time travel has been discovered.

The worst part about believing that the future is already in place , means that you have no free will, your future is already mapped out, ie. you are just a robot..............
 
The real problem with time travel of course is that we don't actually have anyway of computing the co-ordinates even in 3 dimensions, never mind four.
eg. The earth is moving round the sun, and that is moving in the galaxy which is itself moving away from the centre of the universe due to the velocity of the expanding universe.
So movement in time of even a seconds could and would mean that the traveller would end up in space somewhere. :roll:
