How To Build A Time Machine.
If time travel was a possibility the past and the future become unlocked. But is it really possible? Well in theory just getting on a plane is time travel, not on the scale of going back to the 1800's but it's a start. Dr Josie Peters and a team of scientists explore more.

What's really cool about science in general is in the present. Things that seem impossible or at least improbable could be pretty tame for people in let's say a couple of centuries from now. The real question is how would time travel benefit society as a whole? Would drive a person insane to think of the kind of negative situations or potential paradoxes would occur from simply going back to see yourself a decade ago just for a fist bump or something. The restrictions on something like time travel would be heavy if not outlawed outright due to potential problems from it I'd assume.

[@guadalupealvarez9500]

In my point of view, I think it would let scientific know that there's much more in this universe and more to be discover and more questions to answer. It would probably benefit in the field of science and later on the government will probably want to use it so that the FBI can use this to solve cases that haven't been solve yet, something like that.

[@ProtonFilms_Mark]

Malett’s theory hinges on being able to slow down the speed of light. Which is possible, true, but he also assumes it will affect the universe locally inside his machine because the speed of light is a “universal constant” according to general relativity. Which is also true, but the localised slowing of light will in no way affect the way light works in the rest of the universe. It’s like assuming that by hanging speed cameras to slow down traffic you’ll be able to eliminate on-road fatalities completely.

[@passerby4507]

What do you mean by his theory hinges on being able to slow down light? There's no mention of that in the video.

[@ProtonFilms_Mark]

@@passerby4507 because the editors at BBC know it makes no sense. In the past he said that his time machine will be submerged in some kind of viscous liquid in order for the lasers to slow down compared to the rest of the universe. Supposedly in his words it should give them enough traction against space to twist it backwards.

[@maheshch1829]

Idk about his past statements. If it was like you said then he's wrong. But possible solution is to bend the spacetime by using light. Energy/mass can bend the spacetime. But we need an extreme amount of energy to warp the spacetime. Though we can move to future only, no way to past.

Here is another thing, you're living in the past. What you see, what you feel, and what you hear is from the past. For example light from the sun need 8 minutes to reach earth so basically you wouldn't know if sun somehow vanish immediately

[@ggshout3019]

You're simply experiencing what happened already, time travel suggest that at any given moment someone from year 3000 can spawn next to you, this on itself means that year 3000 is somehow existing already in time and space, which of course it is...it all happened from big bang to the end of time...It already happened. The sole reason behind that not happening is because it never did happened. Time never bent back so someone teleported from 1000 years in the future. But if it did happen for some reason, then it won't unhappen. It will 100% happen for someone after 1000 years to come back and visit you. That's how it works. And it's mathematically proven. It's called bootstrap paradox.

@@geoffreyaugust0 makes sense, time and space is separated or perhaps one and the same?, but also deeply connected. Moving the one would probably affect the other. But that's where wormhole theory comes into play whe it comes to time-travel theories. Why use massive amounts of energy to stabilize two natural forces when nature can do it for you. But you need a means to point that proverbial "time gun" into a correct time and space.

[@chrisbab6553]

Fk off with your happened bs. No law says that time travel to the past is impossible so SHUT THE FK UP happened and time bastard. Fk all of you.

[@SuicideGunna]

You don’t have to build a Time Machine we are already Time Machines!

[@kennethakin6322]

To travel through space is to travel through time, offset special divergence.

I think that the energy being harnessed with the hadron collider could potentially work? Maybe? Anybody have any thoughts on that?

[@ggshout3019]

Well the collider itself is probably a failed time travel experiment, and now it's only good for faster as light itself particle collisions, being that of just world scale particle collision camera I would doubt that being just called something fancy as Hadron Collider has something to offer toward time travel...Harnessing 1mg of Anti-Matter would take probably 100years with that type of machinery. So good luck traveling in time once you get few tons of that!

I've never understood why clocks run slower when you're 'moving quickly'. My understanding is that Einstein said that everything is relative. There's no absolute reference point in space, yes? So if you're moving quickly relative to me, your clock runs slower than mine. BUT I'm also moving quickly relative to you, so my clock should run slower than yours. Both can't be right. The only way I can make sense of it if it's *acceleration* that makes the clock run slower, not velocity. Is the astronaut younger because she's been in a lower gravity field, rather than because she's been orbiting at 20,000mph? Any help from any physicists out there?

interacting with ourselves or everyone in the past can have catastrophic effects upon the future or even the space time continuum.

[@harryambroise2395]

Would it open the ability to go back and forward in time, or would it just open an alternate time line? Do to the time machine distorting the time line like a glitch. Isn't it like going into a parallel earth that just changed because you've just entered it?

[@Hiflyg123]

So you may open a hole into the past, leading to an alternate reality..

[@fidelcatsro6948]

i can extend time travel degradation by staying younger just by eating cabbage sardines and eggs...

[@hellfire0332]

And all that time, we just thought Stanley was working out crossword puzzles.

[@DocsGamingLair]

People assume that time is a linear cause to effect but actually from a non linear non subjective viewpoint it is actually just a big ball of wibbly wobbly time whimey stuff.

[@MoeMoe-vs8bf]

I think human we build this time travel machine one day. They have the equations and calculations, it needs time now to think about how to build it and what materials to use.
