There's no way to go back in time, going forward and backwards aren't equal transformations -- because when people talk about going forward in time, they're not REALLY saying lets skip ahead a few years with a button click, they're just talking about slowing down your own frame of time with incredibly high speeds. Even if there was some way to speed up your own frame of time, you would still not be going backwards in time.
And fyi, the earth's rotation has absolutely nothing to do with time travel. At all.
unless your superman, obviously...
Bovine once again is right...
save for saying their is no way to go back in time... I cant quite recall what I saw this on, but it was one of those Discovery channel specials. It was talking about focusing enough strong light on ONE focal point... (use via lasers probably) to create, practically a Gravity well, dense enough to warp timespace, but small enough to not affect us.
Based on the idea that the larger, or even more mass something has, the more energy it would require. so technically we've "sent" small sub-atomic particals "to the past"
granted, all we really did was fling them into this "Time machine" and watched them disappear. (Granted, I was tired, and buzzed when watching this program, so My memory of it isn't perfect. I will try to find a video or somesuch)
