Time Travel's Impossibility
« Thread started on: Sep 26th, 2002, 03:06am » |

I just wanted to rant about the thought of the impossibility of time travel. If it were possible to travel through time someone would have already come back from the future and let us know how to do it. It's even impossible to do that, nothing would be the same for them in the future if they came back to now and f**ked with it just like in that movie 'Back to the Future' > they would automatically like, ERASE themselves from existance. There are simply not enough human resources nor will the knowledge ever be available to transport matter through time. Even if you were able to somehow be transported through time you wouldn't be transported to the same place. You would arrive in outter space or inside the earths core if you tried to go back even 10 minutes! JUST IMPOSSIBLE!! I know there are other websites out there who won't sell you information on why time travel is impossible, they gladly hand it out, and even expand in even greater detail about the same ideas that I have. TAKE THAT, BELIEVERS

Time travel is possible, just not backwards. You see time comes to a stop as you reach light speed, which is a speed the people are believed to acheive according science. Then take into account that if any kind of ship could attain such a speed that the people within it would experience time at a rate which is far slower then actual time. When they slowed down again, they would be at actual time, only it would be anywhere from hours to years ahead. There is proof of this as well... so take that!

Yes, only you would not be able to remain in a curved line such as the earths surface - remember now, light dissapates over the Earths curvature at 3 miles out.. you would - at light speed not be able to remain on the earths surface... thereby shooting out into space.. Suck on it!

Yes, you would, but that doesn't mean you wouldn't be time traveling. You said it's impossible, but it's not, it's just not safe at all.

Well actually there would be no proof to it acutally being possible - You may "disappear" or whatever.. but you need to reappear in a fixed time and position to prove that it worked in the first place. Good luck finding out time travel coordinates.

If that's your case, then there would never be a way of telling wether or not time travel is possible. You designating that people need to be made aware of the success/failure makes it so that only people in the future, after the time travel, would know wether or not it was a success. However, suppose that people made the jump, then reported in the fact that they have been successful to a still operational station on earth. Then they may still be able to be retrieved.

Either way in order for something to be disproved, I guess.. you would need substantial evidence that it were possible.

I think that were far from close to the ability to time travel. However, a lot of the early trials will probabley be on real tv.

"This week on real TV, see a wild car -jacker who doesn't know when to quit! Also, why is this bull so mad? See what happens when people try to leave time in the dust. Some of these clips are funny, some are dangerous, and some are scary, but they're all REAL TV!l"

Start a thread on that. One thing though, if all life is predetermined, and based on past experiences, then wouldn't we be able to tell the future from what happened in the past? Acording to that website because everything has a common creation point, everything that has happened since is a result of that. However, what's to say that the universe was created. Perhaps it has existed beyond the limitations of time and anything like a "beginning." Does something have to start, or can it simply be? All evidience perhaps points to a creation time, but no one was there, and no one really knows. Also, time is a creation of humans. Humans are the only animal that acknowledges the death of themselves because they acknowledge that when enough time passes they themselves will no longer be. Animals don't fear death because they don't know the concept of time. A dog will eat all of it's food in a day regardless of wether or not it's hungry. They don't ration because the future is a concept of time. So the assumption that all things are predetermined are based on the beliefe that there are both creation and time. Not to say that there won't be a next second, but time itself is hard to define. However, assume time exists, and that things happen in a chain as said. Does that mean our every thought and every action is completely predetermined? Is what I'm typing now, and the thoughts that accompany easily traced all the way back to some sort of creation? I have never stopped to think about this sort of thing before, but now that I have I created new ideas. New to me anyhow. But then again, anyone believing in one creation point would easily write it off as the extension of what had happened before. The idea that we don't have free will is a lot like religion. Take the blame, and act. As I see it destiny is a cheap excuse when someone doesn't want to face blame. But now I've gone through about 3 or 4 topics, so I'll stop.
