what exactly is time? Just an invention by man to keep track of events. Moving forward or backwards is merely logging dates using the movement of ur planet as a point of reference. Does time really exist? The ability to transcend beyond the past present or future has been shown since 'immemorial' and may not be limited to heavenly beings.

Not really, time is the name used to describe the progression into the future in respect to the past and present, you cannot alter this progression (time) and thus cannot travel into the future or past, it's very impossible. In fact even if altered, let say time is paused, it doesn't still mean you can travel into the future since time is what determines the future. You can only do this with the help of metaphysics

McGibson: As a Physicist, i will say its true, because i don't know how many of us Physicist remember Loretz force when dealing with time, but its real just that some Physicist do not know how to apply our outside interrestial works to the terrestial. Quote me. Prof Ubachukwu(Dean Post graduate studies UNN once taught me abt Maxwels equations, Gauss's law and how it involves real automobile mechanics. So we speak real and not Apparent!

The Lorentz factor deals with difference in time between two objects moving in difference reference frames, it has nothing to do with time travel. A clock on the object moving close to the speed if light will be slower than a clock on a reference frame at rest.

man did not invent time.
man invented clocks
the time we are referring to here is the indefinite continued progress of existence and events in the past, present, and future regarded as a whole.
not the point of time as measured in hours and minutes past midnight or noon

Missy89:

i am not a physicist but i do have enough knowledge about the subject to understand whatever you say.

why not share here and help us answer the question so that everyone can learn a thing or two

This.

Time travel theorectically MIGHT be possible.

iamord: black man mentality.. U will still be under whitew cos when they see the futuure they plan to control..and u are planning to. Earn from what they control.. U jonzing biggley

Werey..what is control without money?? If i go into the future and gain valuable info on appreciated stocks and shares and such things, come back and profit from my venture, i could have enough money to buy nigeria whole. So what is the control you are talking about? Jonzer.

JustCare:
yes!"I concur with the second law.
perhaps, it will border more on pseudoscience...where the possibility of being in a matrix can't be ruled out.

even fringe science can't help out here. The problem is it would get to a point where the basis on which physics was built would be met with contradicting theories. Time travel might be possible,but not within the realm of science. It would just be one of those far fetched theories that joins previously exsisting ones. E.g big bang theory

Travelling to future and past is impossible. You can only do that theoretically but for real? Try harder. You mean I can go back to past and stop my parents from mating? When am already in history. So cos of my own time travel every thing I associate my self with changes automatically? My girlfriend I had sekx with suddenly forgets? My friends I drank beer with suddenly forgets? Lolz plz let them try something else. This is just "Best guess" game.

I think you are either an undergraduate or just a graduate, you really need to explore me. Read your books.

You obviously didn't know what you were talking about, and I helped you out by pouring some modern physics on you.

Tell them o rezy15....TIME DOES NOT REALLY EXIST like a megabyte and temperature don't really exist but were concieved as standard to measure and calculate properties.

Hi, you won't be the first and the last on this forum who make the mistake of presenting 'wormholes' as though it's real and confirmed. Wormhole is an hypothetical concept used to underline the unlikely possibilty of a certain would-be phenomenon of gaining short-cut to another point in spacetime. It was even briefly explained in the sci-fi horror starring Lawrence Fishburne titled 'Event Horizon' which was about a tremendously huge ship that time travelled so tey it went into realms and dimensions that rendered it conscious and utterly evil it began to haunt and mentally attack the crews sent to locate and return it or something like that.

Please read what i wrote . i did say that wormholes do not obey the laws of gravity which makes them unreal and irrelevant to time travel. i only mentioned it hypothetically. it is like saying could men fly? and getting a response like "yes the can if the grow wings but then again they cant because..........."

Lol bro, i didnt say u never tried, but you need to improve, even as am writing this, am digesting classical electrodynamics ans quantum mechanics. But keep it up bro, can see ur a Physicist, thats the spirit.

benbuks: I've been
thinking critically & following the world of physics &
attempts made by some scientist /mathematicians
to prove time travel which some did theoretically ,
but for real , how possible is it to travel back to the
past / to the future .?
gat to be "supernatural " i suppose .

If you can manipulate Space and Time,Yes you can Time travel. A 3 dimensional being might find it difficult to believe or understand that. But basically as humans upgrade in dimension hopefully, they will find out more about Time travelling. Or even more about what we call Parallel Universes.

BadBoy25: science is largely flawed. science is limited ,it can't explain everything . I am not a scientist nor religious . science and religion are flawed .

you said science is flawed,and religion too. . . Then,you're nothing. If you say that religion is flawed,right,but hey science?i bet you dont know the definition of SCIENCE. . Sorry you're not a scientist, but a primary school kid even takes elementary science. .

ghostofsparta:
Furthermore, travelling through time which is clearly different from the 'time-hopping' scenarios painted above is very possible because not only have I confirmed it several times, it's also modifiable and guess what..the knowledge of it is gleaned from an aspect of the Yoruban Ifa called isegun or Yoruba Advanced Sciences. Travelling through time is what KANOKO does when used by shortening the distances meant to be traversed naturally. If you use it, say you want to be in Ikorodu quickly while you are in Apapa, all you just need do is to contactivate it while already been attached on you and you begin to move by walking as usual and you will realise as you trek on, you somehow find yourself getting past places that normally if you could sprint like a cheetah wouldn't have reached untill you get to the destination inputed on the YAS when you contactivated it. In my study so far, the wonderfull KANOKO has no repercussion but do have a consequence of relapsing the user to walk those skipped distance during sleep which when woken willl be exasperated and weak, nonetheless I am still trying to meet a very deep old woman whom I'm informed has a version that doesn't feature this consequential limitation and that could also enable one apply it from here to anywhere in the world. I know this sounds ridiculous but I and others have used the normal KANOKO and yes I sweat it out. Truly our ancestors were great to have had superscientists (Oniseguns and Babalawos) among them who figured it out because they constantly commmune with nature. If you or anyone is interested to know, ask and I will tell how I think the science of KANOKO works.

AMOS NONYU

This is metaphysics right? Or can it be proven scientifically?

And how do you manipulate time sir?

BadBoy25: tomorrow has come and gone . Obama died 50 years ago. it's year 2100 .
the color of shirt you will wear next year july 20th is known. every single word you will speak next week friday is known, you have already said those things . you died 200 years ago.

So what am I living now since I have existed 200 years ago?

haibe:

We live in a Parallel Universe,where everything is happening at the same time. The ability to shift from one event/reality to another is call Time travelling. That means you are not controlled by Time,because Time doesn't actually exist. It is only an illusion. There is no future or past, everything we experience is happening now.

ghostofsparta: dd
I mean why can't you or Einstein himself didn't explain or point to that thing that would pause or slow down everything predicated on time around us if one attain the speed of light. Maybe I'm ignorant or haven't read that deep as to know how it would be so for I know no wesrern scientist have so called time travelled to be certain everything around will pause or slow down like speedstar in the Heroes series...

If you are indeed a scientist and with sound Mathematical background, you would understand the implications of The Theory of Relativity. The simple implication is, we can never reach the speed of light. It is like the speed limit. And as you approach the speed of light, your mass increases further making it near impossible to reach the speed of light. The implication of the theory is if you can surpass the speed of light, time travel can be achieved. Reaching the speed of light itself is an impossibility today. Not even an electron can reach the speed of light. And about "time slowing down", this has been VERIFIED in actual experiments. It is not just a theory.

and you know this how?

i guess what we have here is definition problem.

what's your definition of past and present and time?

KnightOfLaif: Very possible.Travelled back few times but still trying to perfect travelling into the future. Don't ask me how.

Some people (not necessarily witches mind you) are said to be able to travel backward or forward into time without your body (though the physical body will still suffer the side-effects).
Here, we are not talking of such matters, we are talking of on the physical plane here, like me carry an AK-47 in the present time and travel back like 2 centuries back, and take over the world government - yeah, that sort of thing.

Personally, i do believe it is possible, but it has not yet been discovered (or has not yet been made public) - chose one of the two.
