    When earth is not a flat one as it was cosidered once, so the time is also undaunted by us. By utilising it, yet we know that a minute gone by has always been a history, it can be valued in many fold by doing services or by earnings only. The rest whatever is argued, time wasting.

    Time travel is indeed possible. It is however quite dangerous and your safety is not guaranteed. I have time traveled once before, does anyone else want to come with me my next trip and push it to the limit?

    ITs not good if some1 time travels, its VERY DANGEROUS. Not physical but, Read about the Chaos Theory and the Butterfly Effect. Im really into the chaos theory, which indeed exist, which can possibly lead to time travel. Like if some1 does a wrong accidental move, the whole world changes so drastically some event wont happen. E.X. Your birth, War, many other things.

    You're referring to a type of "grandfather paradox".

    Many hypothetical theories suggest that you can't go back in time and change any significant factors. If you did, you would be starting a new timeline in an alternate dimension. So if you go back in time before you were born and kill your mother, you would not be born in "that" timeline but you would still exist in "this" timeline.

    It would be nice to go back in time and buy a crap load of early Microsoft stock shares, but I'd only be making my twin in another dimension rich...not me.

    That's probably the most important factor, and the one that often gets ignored. The nature of time is still a mystery. It might be a mistake to assume time can only move in a constant line in one direction.

    That's the first conclusion people come to when they think about time travel, they think they solved it. Well, you have not. If time travel exists, it exists in a 3 dimensional state, not a linear state. Like an octopus, now is the octopus's head, and time is each of it's arms, time can exist in multiple places with multiple outcomes, so you would go back in time to a time where you went back with a time machine, not your original back in time because you've fundamentally changed it simply by existing there, the outcomes would be completely independent of each other.

    wouv that sounds interesting :D , maybe the world's ended after a few years from now, so the people from the future didn't have the time to build a time machine :D

    I guess it can only be possible to travel into the future or should i say simulate the future if you had a computer/system powerful enough to predict the actions of every single person/animal/environment and different odds.

    But surely time wouldn't reli on a computer generated image, it would instead be the future...
