No, try and think before you talk.

Time difference is what happened here. China see the new year like some 16 hours before the Americans, the plane took off from Shanghai, China which had already seen the new year of 2017 and landed back in America which had not entered 2017 yet due to the fact that San Francisco is 16 hours behind Shanghai

oga know it all, he was just trying to be funny.. even an illiterate knows what happened here is as a result of different time zones.

This is 100% possible. Time-zone from one continent to another makes this possible.

With a common sense, one should know it's possible.

We're not quarreling bro. Easy. grin

Well time traveling is now possible grin

I doubt that is what is called time travelling. Just caused by slight difference in time zones. The 2016 the flew into (in San Francisco) is not the one the country they took off from had passed!

Wonderful! Time zone differences! The people in that flight experienced a new year twice, within hours. Definitely a record setting event.

This is one of the beauties of the world.


However, I would rather travel from 2016 and land in 2017 than the other way around.

And what really is the difference?

OP u mean flight dat take up in 2016 and landed in 2017.bcuz am confused

It's a simple philosophy based on the location of d countries

If u fly to New York from naija, u will lose abt 7hrs because naija is abt 7hrs ahead of New York, USA. Simple

so wat is so hard to understand dat countries have different time zones...
Re: Flight That Took Off In 2017 And Landed In 2016 by pchukwudi: 11:17am On Jan 03, 2017
Yea, you are right. But this also goes to show that time is an artificial concept of measurement that was purely invented by man. In my opinion I think we have actually always been in eternity - an immesurable span of existence. grin

When you cross international date line , you will either gain or lose a day, and thats what happened in this case, they lost a day by virtue of crossing the international date line.

Have you heard of the flight that took off in 2017 and landed in 2016



Lalasticlala
there is nothing spectacular about it. this is just basic geography knowledge that the globe is divided into 24 different time zones, starting from London (longitude 0 degree) with an increase of 1 hour time for every 15 degree travel eastward.
the plane surely traveled westward and experience a decrease in time that also led to the Change of date.
