Do you believe in time travel?

do i "believe" in time travel, no. i can't even reach that hairy edge of "belief" let alone convicted. do i DISbelieve, yes. farfetched and soo removed from ordinary reality my bet placed that it's fantasy.
 
Quote from Maverick74:

Well, now you are telling us what time travel "should" be based on the movies you have watched that have "conditioned" your brain. I don't think Hawking is making any assertion that one day we will be able to fly in a Delorean back in time with Doc to re-live the past. That is your Hollywood version. I think he is thinking on a little higher level then you are. I could be wrong.

Of course Hawking makes me a drooling idiot on the subject and I might defer to his expertise but remember he said any alien intelligence visiting us would necessarily be hostile too. On such far flung issues though the footing becomes increasingly equal and how much more far flung can you get ...though I enjoy such
pop science and I've a library filled with books i read decades ago on it I throw up my hands in awe of Lifes mystery.

Don't twist my meaning around 180. I meant everyones take on time travel has its root perception in media. Its all we have to go on really.

Check out this Video from a Charlie Chaplin film premiere in 1928 where a woman appears to be talking on her cell phone!

I believe time travel is possible in the ways stephen hawking believed it was, but with him it isnt as much about being warped into a different time, as it was about slowing time enough for yourself that you could come back 100 years later and it would only be a year for you......

Wasnt hawkings version of time travel more about bending/slowing time for the traveller, then actually travelling in time, i.e. making 1 year for the traveller worth 100 years for someone on earth?

I may have misunderstood his books but wasnt that what it was all about, provided you could travel close to the speed of light?

As we understand them currently. Mindboggling breakthroughs on occassion come via not accepting what is as absolute, but by stretching to the next level.

--------------------
E = MCC
IF
E =.5MVV
THEN
.5MVV = MCC

.5VV = CC

V=C

.5 = 1

:confused:
:D
