NOOOO

it wuz a proton torcreep hurr durr

Time travel is possible.
Lets say the Earth orbits the sun at a speed of 30 mph. It takes 90 miles around the sun for a complete orbit, and a full year. Lets say your on Mars, and its full orbit is after 120 miles around the sun, in orbit. It goes at 20 mph. Now your friend is on Earth, and you were born in the same year. After three hours, its a new year on Earth, but on Mars, it has yet to go around the sun yet. You are a time traveler in the future.

FUUU
No. The way humanity divides time has nothing to do with time travel. Your post is bullstuff.
Time travel is possible though.
Imagine you have 100% energy.
When you do nothing and stand still relative to the earth then about 100% of that goes to making time go forward.
If you move at like 50m/h 99.999% goes to making time go forward and 0.001% to making you go forward.
When you go faster, time goes slower because it has less "energy" left.
Scientifically proven. Light speed is 100% to movement and 0% to time.
This is why you can't go faster then the speed of light because you'd have a negative time number.

No, things literally can't go faster than the speed of light.

The only viable form of time travel is wormholes.

I'm sorry if I'm a bit late to reply.

Were did you find out about this? I would quite like to read it :o

Just googling Anti matter contained for 15 minutes gets this.

Good god jesus I love science

IT WAS A PROTON TORcreep FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF

TOPIC IS NOW TIME DILATION DISCUSS

discuss time dilation and stuff

Assuming time is a two-way, space-like dimension in which you progress at the speed of light, you could send a a message faster than light backward (or forward) which would arrive at the destination before the destination arrived at the present. Or send it in the future by the same process but the other direction.

I suppose two-way is a given if it's space-like.

Make a huge stick.
Like 5000000000 miles long.
Push stick on one end.
Instant reaction on the other end, faster then light could send it!

New product delivery technology idea get.

I remember on X-Wing Alliance I used the antimatter missile because proton torcreepes were like super slow and you could only carry like 2 of em. :c
