Is a time machine like this ever possible in this universe or is this truly science fiction?

lol you have much to learn. project looking glass, Philadelphia experiment, and a few more have accomplished time travel long ago. Tesla came up with the technology, although it was obviously suppressed.

One more thing, there is no such thing as science fiction.

Not sure if its possable or not, but that is a great movie...

PEACE!!!

Not as good as the original thoughwww.youtube.com...

oh yes time traveling is possible and that is why we're in a recession. an even that could lead to a devastated country. yup, its very possible.

i'm sorry, i have an open mind but time traveling is too big of a piece of *snip* to fit in it.

time travel in the physical sense is simply not possible in any observable frame of reference...

time would have to be able to stop...

One of the most complicated subjects to discuss ever, although a fascinating topic, conversations have gone on for years about the subject, I know of a group of 3 Scientists who started talking about it on a camping trip over 9 years ago, and the conversation goes on today through letters, e-mail, face to face over dinner, and one of them recently told me they had only touched the tip of the iceberg.

The part in that Movie, where he stops his machine after he met the AI at the museum, he all of a sudden can see destruction all around him, stops, gets out, asks the Soldiers what was happening as they cuffed him to take him to a detention centre, when he asks what cause this, they say where have you been under a rock? he replies yes under a rock, they tell him it's the moon, he looks up and that sight, even though it's CGI always sends a huge chill down my spine, has done since the first time I saw it at the cinema, such a disturbing yet magnificent scene.

My all time fav Movie scene ever, and I guess always will be, I have searched for a poster of that image for years, to no avail.

As for that kind of Machine existing for real? anything is possible, an old saying goes, if we can imagine it, then making it a possibility has already been halfway achieved, nothing is impossible.

Terrence McKenna, of Timewave Zero fame believed that time travel is the explanation for the end of the timewave in his mathematical model. He also believed you wouldn't be able to travel back in time to BEFORE time travel had been invented. Something about being the only way to avoid a paradox.

Research Project Rainbow, better known as the Montauk Project. Time travel was perfected by these evil men in 1963, and believe me, they have used it extensively, and I believe they still are. There is a particle accelerator under the city of Montauk that can supply up to a million volt constant. All this power goes into one decrepit cement building that would burn up just from the heat, so, the power is going underground. They are using it, coupled with HAARP I think for electronic mind control. And that is all I will say at this time.

...and OP learns the hard way that ATS is not the place to ask serious questions.

sphinx551, modern physics cannot predict if traveling back in time is possible or not. However, you could travel forward in time by simply moving at a velocity relatively close to the speed of light. Of course, the amount of energy you would need to do that is pretty much out of this world - or for the optimistic, we don't have the technology to do that yet.

The movie did bring a good point though, what if we could travel to the past but be unable to change the events no matter how hard we try? This would defeat the argument of causality which is currently one of the strongest arguments agaisnt traveling back in time.

btw, finally understood why the guy throws the hat at the end

think aobut it this way
if it were possible it woudl be only available to a selct ferw at first, but once teh technlogy was old news, it woudl be avaialbe to large coorporations, then smaller ones, then eventuially the technlogy woudl be come so old and cehap, everyone could afford a time travel unit. liek all technlogy it gets cehaper adn outdated and stuff that is once consodered secretive and dangerous, becomes usable by every day people.
and in any society, at least one springing from the earth we live on, theres rule breakers adn bad people. and stupid ones that get caught breakign the rules.
at least 1 of them would go back in time to a spot as easrly as possible and blow the whistle on sucha creatoin for his own profit.
and get caught doing so.
and this hasnt happened yet, as far as i know.
so i doubt its possible.
yet.

Sorry, I have been living in a cave when it comes to real time machines.

Make sure the Flux-Core Capacitor is fully charged before trying out time travel.
but yeah, dangerous stuff that when playing around with time and space. mabe one day in the distant future it could be possible.

Don't parallel universes solve the grandfather paradox problem?

How can you travel into the future if the future hasn't happened yet? When top scientists hear such a question, well now they have a job to do. Oh well, there are multiverses and string theory out the As@ physics we don't know of but could be possible. Time according to man is and there is no argument about this in anyway is nothing. How can you grab and bend and twist nothing? Time was invented by man to record the cycle's of the season's of the earth and heavens, uuuh now you have a human mind making something up to put there to explain something the human mind had no part in creating. This question and theory in science has no basis, and they know that, but Hypothesis and theories are their job.

who? what? where? when? how? why?

i smell lies

time travel is theoriticle but if you had the power and machine capalbe to worp space time could work and would work as a teleporter too!
