If you were expecting a funny troll thread sorry to disappoint. =(

Ok I have a lot of questions, I'm doing a project on the theoretical possibilies of time travel. I'm really fascinated by it and already know a decent amount about this topic (Just through reading "A Brief History of Time" and watching some Stephen Hawking shows and explanations).

I don't understand some of the concepts of feedback for reverse time travel..I understand the grandfather explantions and all that just not some of the other stuff.
Also would love some help with understanding wormholes.

There's a whole lot more I have questions about and I'll think of them as I go :wacko:

Does anyone happen to be a Physics wiz or might be able to help me out please? thanks :)

I'd honestly love to help, but space, wormholes, connections and all that shit creep me out. Honestly, one I read the word "wormholes" I stopped reading.

Some of it is if we could travel faster than light then we are cheating the esscense of time. Therefore if we spent 1 year traveling faster than light and we came back to earth. We woul have jumped 3 years theoretically. My explanation may be a bit blurry but I'm tired. Another thing. The universe is a U
if we travel faster than light theoretically we can cut the U in half and do what we call a short cut. Hope this helps :/

Haha thanks tyler but some of what you said is very flawed no offense

:thumbsup: for effort though :love:

I understand most of the nearing speed of light theories, I more so need help with other specific stuff

The numbers are waayyyyyyyyyyy off + the whole traveling faster than light part is wrong

Mass has a big role in time dilation and how close you are nearing the speed of light, breaking it defeats all future time travel
