Everyone is a time traveler. It's today, not yesterday.

Pick a star 50 light-years away.
Travel to that star at 99% of the speed of light
Return to Earth at 99% of the speed of light
The entire journey will have taken you 7 years i.e. you will be seven years older.
On Earth, 50 years will have passed.
Everything and everyone will be 50 years older. Your friends and family will have aged normally (most of them will be dead).
As far as everyone on Earth is concerned, you have been gone for 50 years (remember to make some really good investments before you go).

Discuss. 😀

On the other hand, travel to the past can't ever happen.
The Law of Causality forbids it... no loopholes and no free passes.


Discuss. 😀

@newjaninev2 There's a touch of Rip van Winkle about that fantasy!

@alan20 What fantasy? Einsteinian Relativity all the way... what I described is exactly what would happen

For each second that passes, we are technically time traveling in the sense we are always moving forward.

Granted, we can't jump into the future or the past like in movies.

But if you mean to jump backward or forward to a specific time I don't think that will be possible.

Not in the way movies and sci fi books describe.
Musicman · 61-69, MVIP
I don't know that it is currently possible, but I do believe it will be in our lifetime.
ProfessorPlum77 · 70-79, MVIP
@Musicman Thank you.
Pretzel · 70-79, M
@Lilymoon funny - you sound just like that 5 months from now
